Description

本開示は、半導体装置および当該半導体装置の製造方法に関する。 The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device.

従来、半導体素子を備える半導体装置において、前記半導体装置の電極に通じる導通経路を構成する部材として、金属製のワイヤ等の金属接続材が用いられている。特許文献1に記載の発明においては、金属接続材としてAlからなるワイヤが用いられている。この金属接続材は、前記導通経路の低抵抗化に寄与する。 Conventionally, in a semiconductor device including a semiconductor element, a metal connecting material such as a metal wire has been used as a member constituting a conduction path leading to an electrode of the semiconductor device. In the invention described in Patent Document 1, a wire made of Al is used as a metal connecting material. This metal connecting material contributes to lowering the resistance of the conduction path.

特開2010−171271号公報Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2010-171271

しかしながら、低抵抗化に寄与しうる前記金属接続材を前記半導体素子に接合する際には、前記半導体素子に付加される力がより大きくなる傾向がある。これにより、前記半導体素子の破損等が懸念される。 However, when the metal connecting material, which can contribute to lowering the resistance, is bonded to the semiconductor element, the force applied to the semiconductor element tends to be larger. As a result, there is a concern that the semiconductor element may be damaged.

本開示は、上記した事情のもとで考え出されたものであって、導通経路の低抵抗化を図りつつ半導体素子をより確実に保護することが可能な半導体装置および半導体装置の製造方法を提供することをその課題とする。 The present disclosure has been devised under the above circumstances, and describes a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device capable of more reliably protecting a semiconductor element while reducing the resistance of the conduction path. The challenge is to provide it.

本開示の第1の側面によって提供される半導体装置は、半導体素子と、前記半導体素子に導通し且つ第1金属からなる第1金属接続材と、を備えており、前記半導体素子と前記第1金属接続材との間に介在し、前記第1金属よりも軟質である第2金属からなる介在部材をさらに備え、前記半導体素子と前記介在部材との間、および前記第1金属接続材と前記介在部材との間、の双方に固相接合界面が存在する。 The semiconductor device provided by the first aspect of the present disclosure includes a semiconductor element and a first metal connecting material conductive to the semiconductor element and made of a first metal, the semiconductor element and the first metal. An intervening member made of a second metal that is interposed between the metal connecting material and is softer than the first metal is further provided, and is intervening between the semiconductor element and the intervening member, and the first metal connecting material and the said. There are solid-phase bonding interfaces on both sides of the intervening member.

本開示の第2の側面によって提供される半導体装置の製造方法は、半導体素子と前記半導体素子に導通し且つ第1金属からなる第1金属接続材を備える半導体装置の製造方法であって、前記第1金属よりも軟質である第2金属からなる介在部材を前記半導体素子に接合する第1工程と、前記介在部材に前記第1金属接続材を接合する第2工程と、を備え、前記第1工程においては、前記第2金属からなる第2金属接続材の一部を前記半導体素子に押し付けた状態で超音波を付与することにより固相接合する処理と、前記第2金属接続材を切断することにより、前記半導体素子に接合された前記介在部材を形成する処理と、を含み、前記第2工程においては、前記第1金属接続材の一部を前記介在部材に押し付けた状態で超音波を付与することにより固相接合する処理を含む。 The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device provided by the second aspect of the present disclosure is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device including a semiconductor device and a first metal connecting material conductive to the semiconductor device and made of a first metal. The first step of joining an intervening member made of a second metal, which is softer than the first metal, to the semiconductor element, and a second step of joining the first metal connecting material to the intervening member are provided. In one step, a process of solid-phase bonding by applying ultrasonic waves in a state where a part of the second metal connecting material made of the second metal is pressed against the semiconductor element and cutting of the second metal connecting material. This includes a process of forming the intervening member bonded to the semiconductor element, and in the second step, ultrasonic waves are provided in a state where a part of the first metal connecting material is pressed against the intervening member. Includes a process of solid-phase bonding by imparting.

本開示によれば、導通経路の低抵抗化を図りつつ半導体素子をより確実に保護することができる。 According to the present disclosure, it is possible to more reliably protect a semiconductor element while reducing the resistance of the conduction path.

Further, in each of the pair of first resin side surfaces 53, the edge in the z1 direction is connected to the resin main surface 51, and the edge in the z2 direction is connected to the resin back surface 52. In the present embodiment, the first lead 21 (first terminal portion 212), the second lead 22 (second terminal portion 222), and the third lead 23 (from the first resin side surface 53 located on the x2 direction side) A part of each of the third terminal portion 232) is exposed.

一対の第2樹脂側面54は、図1および図3に示すように、y方向において互いに離間している。一対の第2樹脂側面54は、y方向において互いに反対側を向く。また、一対の第2樹脂側面54はそれぞれ、z1方向の端縁が樹脂主面51に繋がり、z2方向の端縁が樹脂裏面52に繋がっている。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the pair of second resin side surfaces 54 are separated from each other in the y direction.

<半導体装置A1の製造方法>
次に、半導体装置A1の製造方法について、図7〜図13を参照しつつ以下に説明する。
<Manufacturing method of semiconductor device A1>
Next, the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device A1 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 7 to 13.

図7は、介在部材3の形成に用いられるウエッジツール6Aの一例を示している。ウエッジツール6Aは、ウエッジ61A、ワイヤガイド62Aおよびカッタ63Aを有している。その他、これらを支持し、超音波振動を付加するホーン、ホーンを支持する本体、第2金属接続材301を巻回するワイヤリールなどを備えているが、これらの図示および説明は省略する。第2金属接続材301は、第2金属からなり、本実施形態においては、たとえばAlワイヤである。 FIG. 7 shows an example of the wedge tool 6A used for forming the intervening member 3. The wedge tool 6A has a wedge 61A, a wire guide 62A and a cutter 63A. In addition, a horn that supports these and adds ultrasonic vibration, a main body that supports the horn, a wire reel that winds the second metal connecting material 301, and the like are provided, but the illustration and description thereof will be omitted. The second metal connecting material 301 is made of a second metal, and in the present embodiment, it is, for example, an Al wire.

ウエッジ61Aは、第2金属接続材301を押し付けるとともに、超音波振動によって接合対象に第2金属接続材301を接合するものである。ウエッジ61Aは、たとえばタングステンカーバイトからなる。ウエッジ61Aには、ガイド溝611Aが形成されている。ガイド溝611Aは、ウエッジ61Aの下端に設けられている。ガイド溝611Aの断面形状は特に限定されず、たとえばV字状である。ワイヤガイド62Aは、ウエッジ61Aに対して固定されており、前記ワイヤリールに巻回された第2金属接続材301をウエッジ61Aへと導くためのものである。カッタ63Aは、第2金属接続材301を切断するためのものである。カッタ63Aはウエッジ61Aに隣接して配置されている。図示された例においては、ワイヤガイド62Aとカッタ63Aとは、ウエッジ61Aを挟んで反対側に配置されている。 The wedge 61A presses the second metal connecting material 301 and joins the second metal connecting material 301 to the joining target by ultrasonic vibration. The wedge 61A is made of, for example, tungsten carbide. A guide groove 611A is formed in the wedge 61A. The guide groove 611A is provided at the lower end of the wedge 61A. The cross-sectional shape of the guide groove 611A is not particularly limited, and is, for example, V-shaped. The wire guide 62A is fixed to the wedge 61A and is for guiding the second metal connecting member 301 wound around the wire reel to the wedge 61A. The cutter 63A is for cutting the second metal connecting material 301. The cutter 63A is arranged adjacent to the wedge 61A. In the illustrated example, the wire guide 62A and the cutter 63A are arranged on opposite sides of the wedge 61A.

図8に示すように、第1リード21の第1パッド部211のパッド主面211aに設けられためっき層211cに、導電性接合材19を用いて半導体素子1の裏面電極123を導通接合する。導電性接合材19は、たとえばAgペースト材、Ag焼結材、はんだ等である。 As shown in FIG. 8, the back electrode 123 of the semiconductor element 1 is conductively bonded to the plating layer 211c provided on the pad main surface 211a of the first pad portion 211 of the first lead 21 by using the conductive bonding material 19. .. The conductive bonding material 19 is, for example, an Ag paste material, an Ag sintered material, a solder, or the like.

次いであらかじめウェッジボンディング可能な状態とされたウエッジツール6Aのウエッジ61Aの先端を半導体素子1の第1主面電極121の直上に位置させる。そして、ウエッジ61Aの先端を第1主面電極121に向かわせる。このとき、第2金属接続材301の先端部分は、ガイド溝611Aに嵌っている。 Next, the tip of the wedge 61A of the wedge tool 6A, which has been previously wedge-bondable, is positioned directly above the first main surface electrode 121 of the semiconductor element 1. Then, the tip of the wedge 61A is directed toward the first main surface electrode 121. At this time, the tip portion of the second metal connecting member 301 is fitted in the guide groove 611A.

次いで、ウエッジツール6Aを用いてウェッジボンディングを行う。具体的には、ウエッジ61Aを第1主面電極121に押し付けつつ、超音波振動を付加する。このとき、超音波振動により、第2金属接続材301の先端部分が押しつぶされる。これにより、第2金属接続材301の先端部分と第1主面電極121とが超音波接合される。この超音波接合により、第1主面電極121と介在部材3との間には、固相接合界面81が形成される。 Next, wedge bonding is performed using the wedge tool 6A. Specifically, ultrasonic vibration is applied while pressing the wedge 61A against the first main surface electrode 121. At this time, the tip portion of the second metal connecting member 301 is crushed by the ultrasonic vibration. As a result, the tip portion of the second metal connecting material 301 and the first main surface electrode 121 are ultrasonically bonded. By this ultrasonic bonding, a solid phase bonding interface 81 is formed between the first main surface electrode 121 and the intervening member 3.

次いで、図9に示すように、ウエッジツール6を図左方(x2方向)に移動させる。この移動により、カッタ63Aは、第2金属接続材301のうち第1主面電極121に超音波接合された部分の端部付近に位置する。次いで、カッタ63Aを下降させる。カッタ63Aの下降により、たとえば、第2金属接続材301に切れ目が付けられる。カッタ63Aの下降量は、カッタ63Aが第2金属接続材301を完全に切断してしまわない程度に設定されている。この後は、ウエッジ61Aとともに第2金属接続材301を第1主面電極121から離間させる。これにより、切れ目がつけられた第2金属接続材301は切断され、図10に示す介在部材3が形成される。このように形成された介在部材3は、第2金属接続材301としてのAlワイヤの一部によって形成されている。 Next, as shown in FIG. 9, the wedge tool 6 is moved to the left side (x2 direction) of the figure. Due to this movement, the cutter 63A is located near the end of the portion of the second metal connecting member 301 that is ultrasonically bonded to the first main surface electrode 121. Then, the cutter 63A is lowered. By lowering the cutter 63A, for example, the second metal connecting member 301 is cut. The amount of descent of the cutter 63A is set so that the cutter 63A does not completely cut the second metal connecting member 301. After that, the second metal connecting member 301 is separated from the first main surface electrode 121 together with the wedge 61A. As a result, the cut second metal connecting member 301 is cut, and the intervening member 3 shown in FIG. 10 is formed. The intervening member 3 thus formed is formed by a part of the Al wire as the second metal connecting member 301.

図11は、第1金属接続材41の形成に用いられるウエッジツール6の一例を示している。ウエッジツール6は、ウエッジ61、ワイヤガイド62およびカッタ63を有している。その他、これらを支持し、超音波振動を付加するホーン、ホーンを支持する本体、第1金属接続材401を巻回するワイヤリールなどを備えているが、これらの図示および説明は省略する。第1金属接続材401は、第1金属からなり、本実施形態においては、たとえばCuワイヤである。本実施形態においては、第1金属接続材401の線径は、第2金属接続材301の線経よりも細い。 FIG. 11 shows an example of the wedge tool 6 used for forming the first metal connecting material 41. The wedge tool 6 has a wedge 61, a wire guide 62 and a cutter 63. In addition, a horn that supports these and adds ultrasonic vibration, a main body that supports the horn, a wire reel that winds the first metal connecting material 401, and the like are provided, but the illustration and description thereof will be omitted. The first metal connecting material 401 is made of the first metal, and in the present embodiment, it is, for example, a Cu wire. In the present embodiment, the wire diameter of the first metal connecting material 401 is smaller than the wire diameter of the second metal connecting material 301.

ウエッジ61は、第1金属接続材401を押し付けるとともに、超音波振動によって接合対象に第1金属接続材401を接合するものである。ウエッジ61は、たとえばタングステンカーバイトからなる。ウエッジ61には、ガイド溝611が形成されている。ガイド溝611は、ウエッジ61の下端に設けられている。ガイド溝611の断面形状は特に限定されず、たとえばV字状である。ウエッジ61の大きさ(ガイド溝611の長さ)は、ウエッジ61Aの大きさ(ガイド溝611Aの長さ)よりも小さいものを用いてもよい。ワイヤガイド62は、ウエッジ61に対して固定されており、前記ワイヤリールに巻回された第1金属接続材401をウエッジ61へと導くためのものである。カッタ63は、第1金属接続材401を切断するためのものである。カッタ63はウエッジ61に隣接して配置されている。図示された例においては、ワイヤガイド62とカッタ63とは、ウエッジ61を挟んで反対側に配置されている。 The wedge 61 presses the first metal connecting material 401 and joins the first metal connecting material 401 to the joining target by ultrasonic vibration. The wedge 61 is made of, for example, tungsten carbide. A guide groove 611 is formed in the wedge 61. The guide groove 611 is provided at the lower end of the wedge 61. The cross-sectional shape of the guide groove 611 is not particularly limited, and is, for example, V-shaped. The size of the wedge 61 (the length of the guide groove 611) may be smaller than the size of the wedge 61A (the length of the guide groove 611A). The wire guide 62 is fixed to the wedge 61 and is for guiding the first metal connecting member 401 wound around the wire reel to the wedge 61. The cutter 63 is for cutting the first metal connecting material 401. The cutter 63 is arranged adjacent to the wedge 61. In the illustrated example, the wire guide 62 and the cutter 63 are arranged on opposite sides of the wedge 61.

図12に示すように、あらかじめウェッジボンディング可能な状態とされたウエッジツール6のウエッジ61の先端を半導体素子1の第1主面電極121に接合された介在部材3の直上に位置させる。そして、ウエッジ61の先端を介在部材3に向かわせる。このとき、第1金属接続材401の先端部分は、ガイド溝611に嵌っている。 As shown in FIG. 12, the tip of the wedge 61 of the wedge tool 6 which has been made wedge-bondable in advance is positioned directly above the intervening member 3 bonded to the first main surface electrode 121 of the semiconductor element 1. Then, the tip of the wedge 61 is directed toward the intervening member 3. At this time, the tip portion of the first metal connecting member 401 is fitted in the guide groove 611.

次いで、ウエッジツール6を用いてウェッジボンディングを行う。具体的には、ウエッジ61を介在部材3に押し付けつつ、超音波振動を付加する。このとき、超音波振動により、第1金属接続材401の先端部分が押しつぶされる。これにより、第1金属接続材401の先端部分と介在部材3とが超音波接合される。この超音波接合により、介在部材3と第1金属接続材401(第1ボンディング部411)の間には、固相接合界面82が形成される。 Next, wedge bonding is performed using the wedge tool 6. Specifically, ultrasonic vibration is applied while pressing the wedge 61 against the intervening member 3. At this time, the tip portion of the first metal connecting material 401 is crushed by the ultrasonic vibration. As a result, the tip portion of the first metal connecting member 401 and the intervening member 3 are ultrasonically bonded. By this ultrasonic bonding, a solid phase bonding interface 82 is formed between the intervening member 3 and the first metal connecting member 401 (first bonding portion 411).

次いで、図13に示すように、ウエッジツール6を図左方(x2方向)に移動させる。この移動により、カッタ63は、介在部材3に超音波接合された第1ボンディング部411の端部付近に位置する。次いで、第1金属接続材401を繰り出しつつ、ウエッジツール6を第2パッド部221の直上に移動させる。そして、ウエッジ61を第2パッド部221に押し付けつつ、超音波振動を付加する。このとき、超音波振動により、第1金属接続材401の一部が押しつぶされる。これにより、第1金属接続材401の一部と介在部材3とが超音波接合され、第2ボンディング部412が形成される。 Next, as shown in FIG. 13, the wedge tool 6 is moved to the left side (x2 direction) of the figure. Due to this movement, the cutter 63 is located near the end of the first bonding portion 411 ultrasonically bonded to the intervening member 3. Next, the wedge tool 6 is moved directly above the second pad portion 221 while feeding out the first metal connecting material 401. Then, while pressing the wedge 61 against the second pad portion 221, ultrasonic vibration is applied. At this time, a part of the first metal connecting material 401 is crushed by the ultrasonic vibration. As a result, a part of the first metal connecting member 401 and the intervening member 3 are ultrasonically bonded to form the second bonding portion 412.

この後は、ウエッジツール6を移動させ、カッタ63を第2ボンディング部412の端部に位置させる。そして、カッタ63Aを下降させる。カッタ63の下降により、たとえば、第1金属接続材401に切れ目が付けられる。カッタ63の下降量は、カッタ63が第1金属接続材401を完全に切断してしまわない程度に設定されている。この後は、ウエッジ61とともに第1金属接続材401を介在部材3から離間させる。これにより、切れ目がつけられた第1金属接続材401は切断され、第1金属接続材41が形成される。 After this, the wedge tool 6 is moved to position the cutter 63 at the end of the second bonding portion 412. Then, the cutter 63A is lowered. By lowering the cutter 63, for example, the first metal connecting member 401 is cut. The amount of lowering of the cutter 63 is set so that the cutter 63 does not completely cut the first metal connecting member 401. After this, the first metal connecting member 401 is separated from the intervening member 3 together with the wedge 61. As a result, the cut first metal connecting material 401 is cut, and the first metal connecting material 41 is formed.

これ以降は、たとえば第3金属接続材42および樹脂パッケージ5の形成工程を経ることにより、上述の半導体装置A1が得られる。 After that, the above-mentioned semiconductor device A1 can be obtained, for example, by going through the steps of forming the third metal connecting material 42 and the resin package 5.

次に、半導体装置A1および半導体装置A1の製造方法の作用について説明する。 Next, the operation of the semiconductor device A1 and the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device A1 will be described.

本実施形態によれば、半導体素子1の第1主面電極121と第1金属接続材41の第1ボンディング部411との間には、介在部材3が介在している。介在部材3は、第1金属接続材41を構成する第1金属よりも軟質である第2金属によって構成されている。このため、第1ボンディング部411を形成するためのウエッジボンディングにおける超音波振動および圧力が、半導体素子1に及ぼす影響を抑制することができる。また、第1金属接続材41を構成する第1金属は、介在部材3を構成する第2金属よりも抵抗率が小さい。したがって、導通経路の低抵抗化を図りつつ半導体素子1をより確実に保護することができる。 According to the present embodiment, the intervening member 3 is interposed between the first main surface electrode 121 of the semiconductor element 1 and the first bonding portion 411 of the first metal connecting member 41. The intervening member 3 is made of a second metal that is softer than the first metal that constitutes the first metal connecting member 41. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the influence of the ultrasonic vibration and the pressure in the wedge bonding for forming the first bonding portion 411 on the semiconductor element 1. Further, the resistivity of the first metal constituting the first metal connecting member 41 is smaller than that of the second metal constituting the intervening member 3. Therefore, the semiconductor element 1 can be more reliably protected while reducing the resistance of the conduction path.

介在部材3をウエッジツール6Aを用いたウエッジボンディングによって形成することにより、たとえばめっき等の手法によって金属部材を形成する場合と比べて、より厚い形状の介在部材3を形成することが可能である。これは、半導体素子1への影響を抑制するのに好ましい。また、第1主面電極121と介在部材3との間には、固相接合界面81が形成されており、介在部材3と第1金属接続材41との間には、固相接合界面82が形成されている。これは、導通経路の低抵抗化に寄与する。 By forming the intervening member 3 by wedge bonding using the wedge tool 6A, it is possible to form the intervening member 3 having a thicker shape as compared with the case where the metal member is formed by a method such as plating. This is preferable for suppressing the influence on the semiconductor element 1. Further, a solid phase bonding interface 81 is formed between the first main surface electrode 121 and the intervening member 3, and a solid phase bonding interface 82 is formed between the intervening member 3 and the first metal connecting member 41. Is formed. This contributes to lowering the resistance of the conduction path.

本実施形態においては、複数の介在部材3が設けられている。複数の介在部材3には、複数の第1金属接続材41が個別に超音波接合されている。これにより、各第1金属接続材41と第1主面電極121との間に、介在部材3をより確実に介在させることができる。また、複数の介在部材3が互いに離間していることにより、一方の介在部材3に対する第1金属接続材41の超音波接合によって、隣り合う介在部材3が不当に変形すること等を回避することができる。 In this embodiment, a plurality of intervening members 3 are provided. A plurality of first metal connecting members 41 are individually ultrasonically bonded to the plurality of intervening members 3. As a result, the intervening member 3 can be more reliably interposed between the first metal connecting member 41 and the first main surface electrode 121. Further, since the plurality of intervening members 3 are separated from each other, it is possible to prevent the adjacent intervening members 3 from being unreasonably deformed by ultrasonic bonding of the first metal connecting member 41 to one of the intervening members 3. Can be done.

図14〜図19は、本開示の他の実施形態を示している。なお、これらの図において、上記実施形態と同一または類似の要素には、上記実施形態と同一の符号を付している。 14-19 show other embodiments of the present disclosure. In these figures, the same or similar elements as those in the above embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals as those in the above embodiment.

<第2実施形態>
図14および図15は、本開示の第2実施形態に係る半導体装置を示している。本実施形態の半導体装置A2においては、複数の介在部材3が互いに接するように形成されている。すなわち、複数の介在部材3が、一塊の金属部材を構成している。
<Second Embodiment>
14 and 15 show the semiconductor device according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure. In the semiconductor device A2 of the present embodiment, a plurality of intervening members 3 are formed so as to be in contact with each other. That is, the plurality of intervening members 3 constitute a mass of metal members.

図示された例においては、複数の介在部材3が一体的に形成された部材に、複数の第1金属接続材41が互いに離間して超音波接合されている。 In the illustrated example, a plurality of first metal connecting members 41 are ultrasonically bonded to a member in which a plurality of intervening members 3 are integrally formed so as to be separated from each other.

本実施形態によっても、導通経路の低抵抗化を図りつつ半導体素子1をより確実に保護することができる。また、複数の介在部材3を互いに接しさせることにより、第1金属接続材41の接合対象をより大きな一体的な金属部材とすることが可能である。これは、仮に第1金属接続材41のウエッジボンディングにおける第1ボンディング部411の形成において接合位置の誤差が生じた場合であっても、適切な接合を実現しやすいという利点がある。 Also in this embodiment, the semiconductor element 1 can be more reliably protected while reducing the resistance of the conduction path. Further, by bringing the plurality of intervening members 3 into contact with each other, it is possible to make the joining target of the first metal connecting member 41 a larger integrated metal member. This has an advantage that even if an error occurs in the bonding position in the formation of the first bonding portion 411 in the wedge bonding of the first metal connecting material 41, it is easy to realize an appropriate bonding.

<第3実施形態>
図16および図17は、本開示の第3実施形態に係る半導体装置を示している。本実施形態の半導体装置A3においては、介在部材3は、第1金属接続材41に対して顕著に幅広の部材によって構成されている。また、1つの介在部材3に対して、複数の第1金属接続材41が超音波接合されている。このような介在部材3は、たとえばAlリボンと称される帯状の第2金属接続材301の一部によって形成される。
<Third Embodiment>
16 and 17 show a semiconductor device according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure. In the semiconductor device A3 of the present embodiment, the intervening member 3 is composed of a member that is remarkably wider than the first metal connecting member 41. Further, a plurality of first metal connecting members 41 are ultrasonically bonded to one intervening member 3. Such an intervening member 3 is formed of, for example, a part of a strip-shaped second metal connecting member 301 called an Al ribbon.

本実施形態によっても、導通経路の低抵抗化を図りつつ半導体素子1をより確実に保護することができる。また、帯状の第2金属接続材301の一部によって介在部材3を形成することにより、たとえば1回のウエッジボンディングによって、より広い面積を有する介在部材3を形成することができる。 Also in this embodiment, the semiconductor element 1 can be more reliably protected while reducing the resistance of the conduction path. Further, by forming the intervening member 3 with a part of the strip-shaped second metal connecting material 301, the intervening member 3 having a wider area can be formed by, for example, one wedge bonding.

<第4実施形態>

<Fourth Embodiment>
18 and 19 show the semiconductor device according to the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. In the semiconductor device A4 of the present embodiment, the intervening member 3 is formed by a part of the band-shaped second metal connecting material 301, and the first metal connecting material 41 uses the band-shaped first metal connecting material 401. It is formed. An example of the second metal connecting material 301 is an Al ribbon, and an example of the first metal connecting material 401 is a Cu ribbon. In this embodiment, one first metal connecting member 41 is ultrasonically bonded to one intervening member 3.

本実施形態によっても、導通経路の低抵抗化を図りつつ半導体素子1をより確実に保護することができる。また、帯状の第2金属接続材301の一部によって介在部材3を形成することにより、たとえば1回のウエッジボンディングによって、より広い面積を有する介在部材3を形成することができる。また、帯状の第1金属接続材401を用いて第1金属接続材41を形成することにより、さらなる低抵抗化を図ることができる。 Also in this embodiment, the semiconductor element 1 can be more reliably protected while reducing the resistance of the conduction path.
