Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はロードスイッチング回路等に用いられる複数個のMOSトランジスタを同一パッケージに内臓したMOSトランジスタ装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
パワーMOSトランジスタと制御MOSトランジスタとを組合せロードスイッチング回路を形成することが行われている。
【0003】
図2は一般的なパワーMOSトランジスタを用いたロードスイッチング回路である。スイッチング用PチャンネルのパワーMOSトランジスタ1のソース電極S1は電源端子に接続され電源電圧VCCが加えられる。またパワーMOSトランジスタ1のドレイン電極D1には負荷2が接続される。
【0004】
Nチャンネルの制御MOSトランジスタ3のドレイン電極D2にはパワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1が接続され、制御MOSトランジスタ3のソース電極S2はアースされている。さらに制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極G2には制御端子4からのスイッチング信号SWが加えられる。
【0005】
今制御端子4に加えられるスイッチング信号SWがハイレベルのとき、制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極G2はハイレベルとなる。従って制御MOSトランジスタ3はオンされ、ドレイン電極D2とソース電極S2間はローインピーダンスにされ、パワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1はローレベルとなる。そのためパワーMOSトランジスタ1はオンし、電源からの電源電圧VCCはパワーMOSトランジスタ1を通って負荷2に供給される。
【0006】
次に制御端子4に加えられるスイッチング信号SWがローレベルとなると、制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極G2はローレベルとなる。そのため制御MOSトランジスタ3はオフされ、ドレイン電極D2とソース電極S2間はハイインピーダンスにされ、パワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1はハイレベルとなり、パワーMOSトランジスタ1はオフし、電源からの電源電圧VCCは負荷2に供給されなくなる。斯かる動作を繰返し、パワーMOSトランジスタ1がオン・オフされ負荷2に所望の大きさの負荷電圧を供給する。
【0007】
図3は前述したパワーMOSトランジスタ1と制御MOSトランジスタ3の2チップを1パッケージに収納したMOSトランジスタ装置の平面図である。パワーMOSトランジスタ1はオン抵抗を小さくするため、フレーム状のヘッダーに搭載される。
【0008】
樹脂で形成されたパッケージ5には従来同一サイズのアイランドとなる第1のヘッダー6及び第2のヘッダー7が設けられている。第1ヘッダー6の先端はパッケージ5から突出し、ピン端子8を形成する。同様に第2ヘッダー7の先端もパッケージ5から突出し、ピン端子9を形成する。さらにパッケージ5の片側にはピン端子8と共に独立したピン端子11、12が設けられ、パッケージ5の反対側にはピン端子14、15が設けられている。
【0009】
第1のヘッダー6にはパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップのドレイン電極が直接搭載されている。そしてピン端子8はパワーMOSトランジスタ1のドレイン電極D1となす。またピン端子14とパワーMOSトランジスタ1のソース電極は両端をボンディングした金属細線16で接続されソース電極S1となし、ピン端子15とゲート電極G1とは同様に金属細線17で接続し、ゲート電極G1となしている。
【0010】
さらにピン端子11と制御MOSトランジスタ3のソース電極は両端をボンディングした金属細線18で接続されソース電極S2となし、ピン端子12とゲート電極G2とは同様に金属細線19で接続し、ゲート電極G2となしている。そして制御MOSトランジスタ3のドレイン電極D2となるピン端子9パワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ21のゲート電極G1となるピン端子15とを外部で接続し、図2のロードスイッチング回路を構成する。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
前述したように、従来はパッケージに同一サイズのアイランド2個からなるヘッダーを設け、夫々にパワーMOSトランジスタと制御トランジスタのベアチップを設けていた。しかしパワーMOSトランジスタはオン抵抗を小さくするために、ヘッダーを大きくする必要がある。
【0013】
図4に示すように、パワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップを搭載する第1のヘッダー6を大きくすると、パッケージ5の大きさが決められているためピン端子15の位置までおよび、本来であるなら制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極となるピン端子15を独自に設けることができなくなる。
【0014】
そのため、パワーMOSトランジスタ1と共に2端子のショットキーダイオードを第2のヘッダー7に搭載できるが、制御MOSトランジスタ3を搭載したときゲート電極となるピン端子15を設けることができず、2個のMOSトランジスタを同一パッケージに内蔵できない。
【0015】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明はパワーMOSトランジスタのオン抵抗を小さくするため、パワーMOSトランジスタのベアチップを搭載するヘッダーを大きくしても同一パッケージ内に制御MOSトランジスタを搭載するヘッダーを収納可能にしたもので、同一のパッケージ内に設けられ、外部に突出するピン端子を形成した第1のヘッダーと該第1のヘッダーよりも小さいサイズの第2のヘッダーと、前記ピン端子と共にパッケージの側面に突出させ設けられた複数個のピン端子と、第1のヘッダーにドレイン電極が直接に搭載された第1のMOSトランジスタのベアチップと、第2のヘッダーにドレイン電極が直接に搭載された第2のMOSトランジスタのベアチップとよりなり、第1及び第2のヘッダーに夫々搭載された第1及び第2のMOSトランジスタのベアチップに形成されたソース電極を前記パッケージに設けられたピン端子に金属細線で夫々接続し、第1のMOSトランジスタのベアチップに形成したゲート電極を第2のヘッダーに連なる第2MOSトランジスタのベアチップのドレイン電極となるピン端子に金属細線で接続するMOSトランジスタ装置を提供する。
【0016】
本発明は前記第1のMOSトランジスタのベアチップはパワーMOSトランジスタのベアチップであり、第2のMOSトランジスタのベアチップは制御MOSトランジスタのベアチップであるMOSトランジスタ装置を提供する。
【0017】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の半導体装置を図1及び図2に従って説明する。
【0018】
図2はパワーMOSトランジスタを用いたロードスイッチング回路である。
【0019】
スイッチング用に用いられるPチャンネルのパワーMOSトランジスタ1はソース電極S1、ドレイン電極D1及びゲート電極G1を有する。パワーMOSトランジスタ1のソース電極S1は電源端子に接続され電源電圧VCCが加えられる。またパワーMOSトランジスタ1のドレイン電極D1には負荷2が接続される。
【0020】
Nチャンネルの制御MOSトランジスタ3はパワーMOSトランジスタ1を制御するもので、ドレイン電極D2にはパワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1が接続され、制御MOSトランジスタ3のソース電極S2はアースされている。さらに制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極G2には制御端子4からのスイッチング信号SWが加えられる。
【0021】
制御端子4にはパルス状のスイッチング信号が加えられる。今スイッチング信号SWがハイレベルのとき、制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極G2はハイレベルとなる。従って制御MOSトランジスタ3はオンされ、ドレイン電極D2とソース電極S2間はローインピーダンスにされ、パワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1はローレベルとなる。そのためパワーMOSトランジスタ1はオンし、電源からの電源電圧VCCはパワーMOSトランジスタ1を通って負荷2に供給される。
【0022】
次に制御端子4に加えられるスイッチング信号SWがローレベルとなると、制御MOSトランジスタ3のゲート電極G2はローレベルとなる。そのため制御MOSトランジスタ3はオフされ、ドレイン電極D2とソース電極S2間はハイインピーダンスにされ、パワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1はハイレベルとなり、パワーMOSトランジスタ1はオフし、電源からの電源電圧VCCは負荷2に供給されなくなる。斯かる動作を繰返してパワーMOSトランジスタ1がオン・オフされ負荷2に所望の大きさの負荷電圧を供給する。
【0023】
図1は本発明のMOSトランジスタ装置の平面図で、負荷2に所定の電源電圧VCCを供給するために用いられた前述のパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20と制御MOSトランジスタ3のベアチップ21の2チップを1パッケージに収納している。パワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20はオン抵抗を小さくするため、ヘッダーに搭載される。
【0024】
パッケージ23は樹脂で形成され、第1のヘッダー24及び第2のヘッダー25が設けられている。第1ヘッダー24はパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20のドレイン電極を直接に搭載するものである。第1のヘッダー24は搭載されるパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20オン抵抗を小さくするために、サイズを大きくしている。
【0025】
パッケージ23の一側には第1のヘッダー24の先端をパッケージ23から突出しドレイン電極D1となるピン端子26Aを形成した他、パッケージ23の中央に本来なら独立したゲート電極G1となるピン端子26Bを形成する。しかし第1のヘッダー24はサイズを大きくしたため、ピン端子26Bは独立したものとはならず、ピン端子26Aと連続したピン端子となる。
【0026】
パッケージ23のピン端子26A、26Bが設けられた一側には第2のヘッダー25の先端をパッケージ23から突出し、ドレイン電極D2となるピン端子27を形成する。さらにパッケージ23のピン端子26A、26B、27が設けられたのと反対側にはソース電極S1となるピン端子28、ゲート電極G2となるピン端子30及びソース電極S2となるピン端子29が設けられている。
【0027】
第1のヘッダー24にはパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20のドレイン電極が直接搭載されている。そしてピン端子26A、26BはパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20のドレイン電極D1となす。また第2のヘッダー25には制御MOSトランジスタ3のベアチップ21のドレイン電極が搭載される。そしてピン端子27はベアチップ21のドレイン電極D2となる。
【0028】
ピン端子28とパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20のソース電極は両端をボンディングした金属細線32で接続しソース電極S1となす。さらにピン端子29と制御MOSトランジスタ3のベアチップ21のソース電極は両端をボンディングした金属細線33で接続しソース電極S2となし、ピン端子30とベアチップ21のゲート電極とは同様に金属細線34で接続し、ゲート電極G2となしている。
【0029】
ところでパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20にあるゲート電極は本来であるならピン端子26Bに金属細線で接続し、ピン端子26Bとピン端子27とを外部で接続し、図2に示すロードスイッチング回路を構成している。しかし、本発明ではパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20を搭載する第1のヘッダー24のサイズを大きくしたので、ピン端子26Bを独立して設けられない。
【0030】
そこで本発明はパワーMOSトランジスタ1のベアチップ20のゲート電極を金属細線35で制御トランジスタ3のベアチップ21のドレイン電極D2となるピン端子27に接続する。それによりパワーMOSトランジスタ1のゲート電極G1と制御MOSトランジスタ3のドレイン電極D2とは外部で接続することなく接続される。
【0031】
【発明の効果】
本発明のMOSトランジスタ装置はパワーMOSトランジスタのベアチップに形成されたドレイン電極をサイズの大きい第1のヘッダーに直接搭載し、第2のMOSトランジスタのベアチップに形成されたドレイン電極を第2のヘッダーに直接搭載し、第1のMOSトランジスタのベアチップに形成したゲート電極を第2のヘッダーに連なる第2MOSトランジスタのベアチップに形成したドレイン電極となるピン端子に金属細線で直接に接続したので、パワーMOSトランジスタのオン抵抗を小さくするため、第1のヘッダーのサイズを大きくしても同一パッケージ内に制御MOSトランジスタを搭載する第2のヘッダーを内蔵することができる。
【0032】
またパワーMOSトランジスタを搭載する第1のヘッダーのサイズを大きくしたので、放熱効果が増加する。
【0033】
さらにパワーMOSトランジスタのゲート電極と制御トランジスタのゲート電極はパッケージ内で接続されているので、外部で接続する手間が省ける。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a MOS transistor device in which a plurality of MOS transistors used in a load switching circuit or the like are incorporated in the same package.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A load switching circuit is formed by combining a power MOS transistor and a control MOS transistor.
[0003]
FIG. 2 shows a load switching circuit using a general power MOS transistor. The source electrode S1 of the switching P-channel power MOS transistor 1 is connected to the power supply terminal to which the power supply voltage VCC is applied. A load 2 is connected to the drain electrode D1 of the power MOS transistor 1.
[0004]
The drain electrode D2 of the N-channel control MOS transistor 3 is connected to the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1, and the source electrode S2 of the control MOS transistor 3 is grounded. Further, the switching signal SW from the control terminal 4 is applied to the gate electrode G2 of the control MOS transistor 3.
[0005]
When the switching signal SW applied to the control terminal 4 is at a high level now, the gate electrode G2 of the control MOS transistor 3 is at a high level. Accordingly, the control MOS transistor 3 is turned on, the drain electrode D2 and the source electrode S2 are set to low impedance, and the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1 is set to the low level. Therefore, the power MOS transistor 1 is turned on, and the power supply voltage VCC from the power supply is supplied to the load 2 through the power MOS transistor 1.
[0006]
Next, when the switching signal SW applied to the control terminal 4 becomes low level, the gate electrode G2 of the control MOS transistor 3 becomes low level. Therefore, the control MOS transistor 3 is turned off, the drain electrode D2 and the source electrode S2 are set to high impedance, the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1 becomes high level, the power MOS transistor 1 is turned off, and the power supply voltage VCC from the power supply Is not supplied to the load 2. By repeating such an operation, the power MOS transistor 1 is turned on / off, and a load voltage having a desired magnitude is supplied to the load 2.
[0007]
FIG. 3 is a plan view of a MOS transistor device in which two chips of the power MOS transistor 1 and the control MOS transistor 3 are accommodated in one package. The power MOS transistor 1 is mounted on a frame-like header in order to reduce the on-resistance.
[0008]
A package 5 made of resin is conventionally provided with a first header 6 and a second header 7 which are islands of the same size. The tip of the first header 6 protrudes from the package 5 to form a pin terminal 8. Similarly, the tip of the second header 7 protrudes from the package 5 to form a pin terminal 9.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The semiconductor device of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 2 shows a load switching circuit using a power MOS transistor.
[0019]
A P-channel power MOS transistor 1 used for switching has a source electrode S1, a drain electrode D1, and a gate electrode G1. The source electrode S1 of the power MOS transistor 1 is connected to the power supply terminal and applied with the power supply voltage VCC. A load 2 is connected to the drain electrode D1 of the power MOS transistor 1.
[0020]
The N-channel control MOS transistor 3 controls the power MOS transistor 1. The drain electrode D2 is connected to the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1, and the source electrode S2 of the control MOS transistor 3 is grounded. Further, the switching signal SW from the control terminal 4 is applied to the gate electrode G2 of the control MOS transistor 3.
[0021]
A pulsed switching signal is applied to the control terminal 4. When the switching signal SW is at a high level now, the gate electrode G2 of the control MOS transistor 3 is at a high level. Accordingly, the control MOS transistor 3 is turned on, the drain electrode D2 and the source electrode S2 are set to low impedance, and the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1 is set to the low level. Therefore, the power MOS transistor 1 is turned on, and the power supply voltage VCC from the power supply is supplied to the load 2 through the power MOS transistor 1.
[0022]
Next, when the switching signal SW applied to the control terminal 4 becomes low level, the gate electrode G2 of the control MOS transistor 3 becomes low level. Therefore, the control MOS transistor 3 is turned off, the drain electrode D2 and the source electrode S2 are set to high impedance, the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1 becomes high level, the power MOS transistor 1 is turned off, and the power supply voltage VCC from the power supply Is not supplied to the load 2. By repeating such an operation, the power MOS transistor 1 is turned on / off to supply a load voltage having a desired magnitude to the load 2.
[0023]
FIG. 1 is a plan view of a MOS transistor device according to the present invention. Two chips of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 and the bare chip 21 of the control MOS transistor 3 used for supplying a predetermined power supply voltage VCC to the load 2 are shown. Are stored in one package. The bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 is mounted on the header in order to reduce the on-resistance.

The size of the first header 24 is increased in order to reduce the on-resistance of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 to be mounted.
[0025]
On one side of the package 23, the tip of the first header 24 protrudes from the package 23 to form a pin terminal 26 A that becomes the drain electrode D 1, and a pin terminal 26 B that originally becomes an independent gate electrode G 1 in the center of the package 23. Form. However, since the size of the first header 24 is increased, the pin terminal 26B is not independent, but is a pin terminal continuous with the pin terminal 26A.
[0026]
On one side of the package 23 where the pin terminals 26A and 26B are provided, the tip of the second header 25 protrudes from the package 23 to form a pin terminal 27 serving as the drain electrode D2. Further, on the opposite side of the package 23 where the pin terminals 26A, 26B, and 27 are provided, a pin terminal 28 that becomes the source electrode S1, a pin terminal 30 that becomes the gate electrode G2, and a pin terminal 29 that becomes the source electrode S2 are provided. ing.
[0027]
The drain electrode of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 is directly mounted on the first header 24. The pin terminals 26A and 26B serve as the drain electrode D1 of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1. The drain electrode of the bare chip 21 of the control MOS transistor 3 is mounted on the second header 25. The pin terminal 27 becomes the drain electrode D2 of the bare chip 21.
[0028]
The pin electrode 28 and the source electrode of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 are connected by a thin metal wire 32 bonded at both ends to form a source electrode S1. Further, the pin terminal 29 and the source electrode of the bare chip 21 of the control MOS transistor 3 are connected by a metal thin wire 33 bonded at both ends to form a source electrode S2, and the pin terminal 30 and the gate electrode of the bare chip 21 are similarly connected by a metal thin wire 34. The gate electrode G2.
[0029]
By the way, if the gate electrode of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 is originally connected to the pin terminal 26B with a thin metal wire, the pin terminal 26B and the pin terminal 27 are connected externally to constitute the load switching circuit shown in FIG. is doing. However, since the size of the first header 24 on which the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 is mounted is increased in the present invention, the pin terminal 26B cannot be provided independently.
[0030]
Therefore, in the present invention, the gate electrode of the bare chip 20 of the power MOS transistor 1 is connected to the pin terminal 27 serving as the drain electrode D2 of the bare chip 21 of the control transistor 3 by a thin metal wire 35. Thereby, the gate electrode G1 of the power MOS transistor 1 and the drain electrode D2 of the control MOS transistor 3 are connected without being connected externally.
