Description

本発明は、絶縁基板上に形成された回路パターンを構成する金属層に、外部端子が接続された半導体装置及びその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a semiconductor device in which external terminals are connected to a metal layer constituting a circuit pattern formed on an insulating substrate, and a method for manufacturing the same.

IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor)等のパワー半導体素子等をモジュール化した半導体装置は、例えば図18に示すパッケージ構造をなしている。   A semiconductor device in which a power semiconductor element or the like such as an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) is modularized has a package structure shown in FIG. 18, for example.

図18に示す半導体装置は、樹脂ケース52の底部に、冷却板51が配設されている。冷却板51上には、絶縁基板53の両面に金属層54,55が接合した絶縁配線基板56が配設され、はんだ層57aを介して、絶縁配線基板56の金属層55と、冷却板51とが接合している。絶縁配線基板56上には、半導体素子58が配設され、はんだ層57bを介して、絶縁配線基板56の金属層54と、半導体素子58とが接合している。また、絶縁配線基板56上には外部端子59が配設され、はんだ層57cを介して絶縁配線基板56の金属層54と、外部端子59とが接合している。各半導体素子58は、ボンディングワイヤ60により、外部端子59と電気的に接続している。そして、樹脂ケース52の内部には、封止樹脂61が充填されて封止されている。   In the semiconductor device shown in FIG. 18, a cooling plate 51 is disposed at the bottom of the resin case 52. On the cooling plate 51, an insulating wiring substrate 56 in which metal layers 54 and 55 are bonded to both surfaces of the insulating substrate 53 is disposed, and the metal layer 55 of the insulating wiring substrate 56 and the cooling plate 51 are interposed via a solder layer 57a. And are joined. A semiconductor element 58 is disposed on the insulated wiring board 56, and the metal layer 54 of the insulated wiring board 56 and the semiconductor element 58 are joined via a solder layer 57b. Further, external terminals 59 are disposed on the insulating wiring board 56, and the metal layer 54 of the insulating wiring board 56 and the external terminals 59 are joined via the solder layer 57c. Each semiconductor element 58 is electrically connected to the external terminal 59 by a bonding wire 60. The inside of the resin case 52 is filled with a sealing resin 61 and sealed.

図18に記載されるように、従来の半導体装置においては、はんだ等の接続材を用いて、絶縁配線基板の金属層上に外部端子を接合している。そして、図18や特許文献1等に記載されるように、はんだ接合の際に外部端子を固定保持してはんだ付けし易くするため、樹脂ケースと外部端子とを予め一体化したものを用いて、絶縁配線基板の金属層上に外部端子を接合している。   As shown in FIG. 18, in a conventional semiconductor device, an external terminal is joined on a metal layer of an insulated wiring board using a connecting material such as solder. Then, as described in FIG. 18, Patent Document 1 and the like, in order to facilitate the soldering by fixing and holding the external terminal at the time of soldering, a resin case and an external terminal integrated in advance are used. The external terminals are bonded on the metal layer of the insulated wiring board.

また、特許文献2には、絶縁配線基板に筒状外部端子連結部を接合し、該外部端子連結部に外部端子を挿入して、絶縁配線基板と外部端子とを接続することが記載されている。   Patent Document 2 describes that a cylindrical external terminal connecting portion is joined to an insulated wiring board, an external terminal is inserted into the external terminal connecting portion, and the insulated wiring board and the external terminal are connected. Yes.

しかしながら、はんだ等の接続材を用いて絶縁配線基板の金属層上に外部端子を接合する場合、回路基板に、半導体素子をはんだ付けする工程と、外部端子をはんだ付けする工程とをそれぞれ別々に行う必要があり、はんだ付け工程が煩雑となるという問題があった。   However, when joining external terminals onto the metal layer of the insulated wiring board using a connecting material such as solder, the process of soldering the semiconductor element to the circuit board and the process of soldering the external terminals are separately performed. There is a problem that the soldering process becomes complicated.

また、絶縁配線基板の金属層上に外部端子を接合する際に、外部端子が固定保持されていないと、位置ずれ等が生じ易く外部端子の接合精度に問題があった。樹脂ケースと外部端子とを予め一体化したものを用いることで、外部端子が固定保持された状態ではんだ接合でき、接合時における位置ずれを抑えることができるものの、この場合、樹脂ケースと外部端子とを一体化させる工程が増えるので、製造工程が煩雑化し、製造コストが嵩む問題があった。   Further, when the external terminal is joined to the metal layer of the insulated wiring board, if the external terminal is not fixed and held, there is a problem in the joining accuracy of the external terminal that is likely to cause a positional shift or the like. By using a resin case and external terminal integrated in advance, soldering can be performed with the external terminal fixed and held, and displacement during bonding can be suppressed. In this case, however, the resin case and external terminal As the number of steps for integrating them increases, the manufacturing process becomes complicated and the manufacturing cost increases.

Further, when the cylindrical external terminal is bonded onto the insulated wiring board, there is a possibility that a positional shift or the like may occur if the cylindrical external terminal is not fixed and held, and the bonding accuracy of the external terminal may be impaired. Furthermore, in the method disclosed in Patent Document 2, since it is necessary to prepare a cylindrical external terminal connecting portion separately, there is a problem that the number of parts increases and the material cost increases.

よって、本発明の目的は、製造時におけるはんだ付け工程を簡略化でき、外部端子の接合精度に優れた半導体装置及び半導体装置の製造方法を提供することにある。   Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device that can simplify the soldering process at the time of manufacturing and have excellent joining accuracy of external terminals.

本発明の半導体装置について図面を参照して説明する。図1には、本発明の半導体装置の第1実施形態が示されている。   A semiconductor device of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of a semiconductor device of the present invention.

この半導体装置は、樹脂ケース2の底部に、冷却板1が配設されている。冷却板1は、放熱性の高い材料で構成される。例えば、銅、アルミニウム、銅合金、アルミニウム合金などが挙げられる。   In this semiconductor device, a cooling plate 1 is disposed at the bottom of a resin case 2. The cooling plate 1 is made of a material with high heat dissipation. For example, copper, aluminum, a copper alloy, an aluminum alloy, etc. are mentioned.

冷却板1上には、絶縁配線基板3が配設されている。絶縁配線基板3は、絶縁基板4の両面に金属層5,6が接合してなるものであって、金属層5によって、絶縁基板4上に所定の回路パターンが形成されている。そして、絶縁配線基板3の金属層6と、冷却板1とが、はんだ層7aを介して接合している。   An insulated wiring board 3 is disposed on the cooling plate 1. The insulating wiring board 3 is formed by bonding metal layers 5 and 6 to both surfaces of the insulating substrate 4, and a predetermined circuit pattern is formed on the insulating substrate 4 by the metal layer 5. And the metal layer 6 of the insulated wiring board 3 and the cooling plate 1 are joined via the solder layer 7a.

絶縁配線基板3としては、特に限定は無いが、例えば、セラミック基板上に銅板を直接接合させたDirect Bonding Copper基板や、セラミックスと銅板とをろう材を介して接合したActive Metal Brazed Copper基板等が挙げられる。   The insulating wiring substrate 3 is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a Direct Bonding Copper substrate in which a copper plate is directly bonded on a ceramic substrate, and an Active Metal Brazed Copper substrate in which ceramic and a copper plate are bonded via a brazing material. Can be mentioned.

絶縁配線基板3の回路パターンを構成する金属層5の所定箇所には、外部端子20が接合している。また、同金属層5には、半導体素子8が、はんだ層7bを介して接合している。半導体素子8は、用途により異なるが、例えば、IGBT等のパワー半導体素子、FWD等の整流素子等が挙げられる。この実施形態では、各半導体素子8は、ボンディングワイヤ9を介して、外部端子20と電気的に接続している。そして、樹脂ケース2の内部には、ゲル、エポキシ樹脂などの封止樹脂10が充填されて、封止樹脂10で封止されている。   An external terminal 20 is bonded to a predetermined portion of the metal layer 5 constituting the circuit pattern of the insulated wiring board 3. Further, the semiconductor element 8 is joined to the metal layer 5 via the solder layer 7b. Although the semiconductor element 8 changes with uses, for example, power semiconductor elements, such as IGBT, rectifier elements, such as FWD, etc. are mentioned. In this embodiment, each semiconductor element 8 is electrically connected to the external terminal 20 via the bonding wire 9. The inside of the resin case 2 is filled with a sealing resin 10 such as gel or epoxy resin and sealed with the sealing resin 10.

絶縁配線基板3の金属層5と、外部端子20との接合部分について、図2を用いて更に詳細に説明する。   The joint portion between the metal layer 5 of the insulated wiring board 3 and the external terminal 20 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.

図2に示されるように、絶縁配線基板3の金属層5には、外部端子20が圧入される外部端子接続穴5aが形成されており、該外部端子接続穴5aに外部端子20が圧入されて、絶縁配線基板3の金属層5と、外部端子20とが接合している。すなわち、本発明の半導体装置においては、外部端子20と金属層5とが、はんだ付け工程を経ずに接合されている。   As shown in FIG. 2, an external terminal connection hole 5a into which the external terminal 20 is press-fitted is formed in the metal layer 5 of the insulated wiring board 3, and the external terminal 20 is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a. Thus, the metal layer 5 of the insulated wiring board 3 and the external terminal 20 are joined. That is, in the semiconductor device of the present invention, the external terminal 20 and the metal layer 5 are joined without undergoing a soldering process.

外部端子20と外部端子接続穴5aとの接触部5bにおける、外部端子20と直交する方向の断面、すなわち、図2の接触部5bにおけるB−B断面において、外部端子20は、外部端子接続穴5aの内周に対し40%以上接触していることが必要である。外部端子の接触面積が40%未満であると、接合強度や導電性が不十分である。接触面積が40%以上であれば、十分な接合強度と導電性が得られる。   In the cross section in the direction orthogonal to the external terminal 20 in the contact portion 5b between the external terminal 20 and the external terminal connection hole 5a, that is, in the BB cross section in the contact portion 5b in FIG. It is necessary to contact 40% or more with respect to the inner periphery of 5a. When the contact area of the external terminal is less than 40%, the bonding strength and conductivity are insufficient. If the contact area is 40% or more, sufficient bonding strength and conductivity can be obtained.

外部端子20の形状は、特に限定は無い。円柱状、角柱状等いずれの形状のものを用いることができる。また、外部端子20の外部端子接続穴5aへの圧入部の形状は、例えば、図3〜6に示す形状をなすものなどを好ましく用いることができる。   The shape of the external terminal 20 is not particularly limited. Any shape such as a columnar shape or a prismatic shape can be used. Further, as the shape of the press-fitting portion of the external terminal 20 into the external terminal connection hole 5a, for example, the shape shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 can be preferably used.

図3に示される外部端子20aは、絞り加工のないストレートな柱状部21からなる圧入部と、該圧入部から先端に向かってテーパ状に縮径している縮径部23とを備えている。この外部端子20aを、外部端子接続穴5aに圧入すると、柱状部21が、外部端子接続穴5aの内周面に接触して両者が接合する。また、先端がテーパ状に縮径しているので、外部端子20aを外部端子接続穴5aに圧入する際に中心位置の調整が容易となり、圧入し易い。   The external terminal 20a shown in FIG. 3 includes a press-fit portion composed of a straight columnar portion 21 that is not drawn and a diameter-reduced portion 23 that is tapered from the press-fit portion toward the tip. . When the external terminal 20a is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a, the columnar portion 21 comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the external terminal connection hole 5a and joins both. Further, since the tip has a tapered diameter, when the external terminal 20a is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a, the adjustment of the center position is facilitated and the press-fitting is easy.

外部端子20aの圧入部の最大外径Rmaxは、圧入前の状態で、該最大外径Rmaxと、外部端子接続穴5aの内径Rとの差分(Rmax−R)が、0〜0.15mmであることが好ましく、0.05〜0.15mmがより好ましく、0.05〜0.10mmがより好ましい。上記差分が、上記範囲内となるように最大外径Rmaxを設定することで、外部端子の破損や、絶縁配線基板3の破損等を生じることなく、外部端子20aを外部端子接続穴5aに圧入して両者を強固に接合でき、外部端子接続穴5aからの外部端子20aの抜けを防止できる。 Maximum outer diameter R max of the press-fitting portion of the external terminal 20a is in a state before press-fitting, the said maximum outer diameter R max, the difference between the inner diameter R of the external terminal connection hole 5a (R max -R) is 0-0 .15 mm is preferable, 0.05 to 0.15 mm is more preferable, and 0.05 to 0.10 mm is more preferable. By setting the maximum outer diameter Rmax so that the difference falls within the above range, the external terminal 20a can be connected to the external terminal connection hole 5a without causing damage to the external terminal or the insulating wiring board 3. The two can be firmly joined by press fitting, and the external terminal 20a can be prevented from coming off from the external terminal connection hole 5a.

図4〜6に示される外部端子20b〜20dは、絞り加工により外周に突出した突起部22を有する圧入部と、該圧入部から先端に向かってテーパ状に縮径している縮径部23とを備えている。この外部端子を、外部端子接続穴5aに圧入すると、突起部22bが、外部端子接続穴5aの内周面に接触して両者が接合する。また、先端がテーパ状に縮径しているので、外部端子を外部端子接続穴5aに圧入する際に中心位置の調整が容易となり、圧入し易い。なお、絞り加工によって形成される突起部の形状は、図4〜6に示す形状に限定されない。   The external terminals 20b to 20d shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 include a press-fit portion having a protrusion 22 protruding to the outer periphery by drawing and a diameter-reduced portion 23 that is tapered from the press-fit portion toward the tip. And. When this external terminal is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a, the projecting portion 22b comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the external terminal connection hole 5a to join them together. In addition, since the tip is tapered, the center position can be easily adjusted when the external terminal is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a, and the press-fit is easy. In addition, the shape of the protrusion formed by drawing is not limited to the shape shown in FIGS.

外部端子20b〜20dにおいて、圧入部の最大外径Rmaxは、圧入前の状態で、該最大外径Rmaxと、外部端子接続穴5aの内径Rとの差分(Rmax−R)が、0〜0.25mmであることが好ましく、0.05〜0.25mmがより好ましく、0.10〜0.20mmがより好ましい。上記差分が、上記範囲内となるように最大外径Rmaxを設定することで、外部端子の破損や、金属層5の破損等を生じることなく、外部端子を外部端子接続穴5aに圧入して両者を強固に接合でき、外部端子接続穴5aからの外部端子の抜けを防止できる。 In the external terminals 20b to 20d, the maximum outer diameter R max of the press section, in a state before press-fitting, the said maximum outer diameter R max, the difference between the inner diameter R of the external terminal connection hole 5a (R max -R) is, It is preferably 0 to 0.25 mm, more preferably 0.05 to 0.25 mm, and more preferably 0.10 to 0.20 mm. By setting the maximum outer diameter Rmax so that the difference falls within the above range, the external terminal is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a without causing damage to the external terminal or the metal layer 5. Thus, both can be firmly joined, and the external terminal can be prevented from coming off from the external terminal connection hole 5a.

外部端子接続穴5aは、その内周が、外部端子の圧入部に適合する穴形状をなしていることが好ましい。外部端子接続穴5aの内周が、外部端子の圧入部に適合する穴形状をなしていることにより、外部端子の、穴の内周に対する接触面積を大きくできる。   It is preferable that the outer periphery of the external terminal connection hole 5a has a hole shape that matches the press-fit portion of the external terminal. Since the inner periphery of the external terminal connection hole 5a has a hole shape that matches the press-fit portion of the external terminal, the contact area of the external terminal with respect to the inner periphery of the hole can be increased.

次に、上記半導体装置の製造方法となる、本発明の半導体装置の製造方法の第1実施形態について説明する。   Next, a semiconductor device manufacturing method according to a first embodiment of the present invention, which is the semiconductor device manufacturing method, will be described.

絶縁配線基板3に金属層5で内周を覆われた外部端子接続穴5aを形成し、該外部端子接続穴5aに外部端子20を圧入する(圧入工程)。   An external terminal connection hole 5a whose inner periphery is covered with the metal layer 5 is formed in the insulated wiring board 3, and the external terminal 20 is press-fitted into the external terminal connection hole 5a (press-in process).

その際、外部端子20と外部端子接続穴5aとの接触部5bにおける、外部端子20と直交する方向の断面、すなわち、図2の接触部5bにおけるB−B断面において、外部端子20は、外部端子接続穴5aの内周に対し40%以上接触させる。両者の接触面積は、外部端子20の圧入部の形状、外部端子接続穴5aの穴形状により容易に調整できる。例えば、図3に示すように、外部端子の圧入部が絞り加工のないストレートな柱状部からなり、かつ、外部端子接続穴5aの穴形状がそれに適合する形状をなしている場合は、両者の接触面積をほぼ100%とすることができる。また、図4〜6に示すように、外部端子の圧入部が、絞り加工により外周に突出した突起部を有するものを用いた場合、突起部の形状や、最大外径Rmaxを調整することにより両者の接触面積を調整できる。 At that time, in the cross section in the direction orthogonal to the external terminal 20 in the contact portion 5b between the external terminal 20 and the external terminal connection hole 5a, that is, in the BB cross section in the contact portion 5b in FIG. 40% or more is brought into contact with the inner periphery of the terminal connection hole 5a. The contact area between them can be easily adjusted by the shape of the press-fit portion of the external terminal 20 and the shape of the external terminal connection hole 5a. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, when the press-fit portion of the external terminal is formed of a straight columnar portion without drawing processing and the hole shape of the external terminal connection hole 5a is a shape adapted thereto, The contact area can be almost 100%. Also, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, when the press-fit portion of the external terminal has a protrusion protruding to the outer periphery by drawing, the shape of the protrusion and the maximum outer diameter R max should be adjusted. Thus, the contact area between them can be adjusted.

そして、冷却板1の周囲を樹脂ケース2で囲い、樹脂ケース2で囲われた内部に封止樹脂10を充填し、封止樹脂を硬化することで本発明の半導体装置が製造される。   Then, the periphery of the cooling plate 1 is surrounded by the resin case 2, the sealing resin 10 is filled inside the resin case 2, and the sealing resin is cured, whereby the semiconductor device of the present invention is manufactured.

なお、この実施形態では、圧入工程を行った後にリフロー工程を行ったが、リフロー工程後に圧入工程を行ってもよい。   In this embodiment, the reflow process is performed after the press-in process, but the press-in process may be performed after the reflow process.

図9及び図10には、本発明の半導体装置の第4実施形態が示されている。上記した第1の実施形態と実質的に同一部分には同符号を付して、その説明を省略する。   9 and 10 show a fourth embodiment of the semiconductor device of the present invention. Portions that are substantially the same as those of the first embodiment described above are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

この実施形態に係る半導体装置は、外部端子20の軸方向途中に絞り加工が施されて、凹み部28が形成されている。また、この実施形態における外部端子20eは、図10に示すように円柱状の柱状部21を有しており、その軸方向両端に先細テーパ状の縮径部23,23が形成されていると共に、柱状部21の軸方向中央に円形断面となるように絞り加工が施されて、環状の凹み部28が設けられている。   In the semiconductor device according to this embodiment, a drawing process is performed in the axial direction of the external terminal 20 to form a recess 28. Further, the external terminal 20e in this embodiment has a columnar columnar portion 21 as shown in FIG. 10, and tapered diameter-reduced portions 23, 23 are formed at both axial ends thereof.

そして、図9に示すように、樹脂ケース2の内部に配置された絶縁基板3、半導体素子8、外部端子20の一部が封止樹脂10で覆われると共に、外部端子20に設けられた凹み部28が封止樹脂10で覆われている。   As shown in FIG. 9, the insulating substrate 3, the semiconductor element 8, and the external terminal 20 disposed inside the resin case 2 are partially covered with the sealing resin 10, and the recess provided in the external terminal 20. The part 28 is covered with the sealing resin 10.

この実施形態では、外部端子20の凹み部28が封止樹脂10で覆われるため、外部端子20に引き抜き力が作用しても、封止樹脂10が凹み部28に引っ掛かって抵抗となり、外部端子20の金属層5に対する引き抜き強度を向上させることができ、金属層5から外部端子20が抜け外れることを一層確実に防止することができる。   In this embodiment, since the recessed portion 28 of the external terminal 20 is covered with the sealing resin 10, even if a pulling force acts on the external terminal 20, the sealing resin 10 is hooked on the recessed portion 28 and becomes a resistance. The pull-out strength of the metal layer 20 with respect to the metal layer 5 can be improved, and the external terminal 20 can be more reliably prevented from coming off from the metal layer 5.

また、凹み部28を有する外部端子20としては、図11〜13に示す形状のものであってもよい。図11に示す外部端子20fは、柱状部21の軸方向途中に断面十字形状となるように絞り加工が施され、その周方向に均等な間隔で4つの凹み部28が設けられている。図12に示す外部端子20gは、柱状部21の軸方向途中において、断面がY字形状となるように絞り加工が施され、その周方向に均等な間隔で3つの凹み部28が設けられている。図13に示す外部端子20hは、柱状部21の軸方向途中に略長方形断面となるように絞り加工が施され、その両側に一対の凹み部28が設けられている。   Moreover, as the external terminal 20 which has the recessed part 28, the thing of the shape shown to FIGS.

The external terminal 20g shown in FIG. 12 is drawn in the middle of the columnar portion 21 in the axial direction so that the cross section is Y-shaped, and three recessed portions 28 are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction. Yes. The external terminal 20h shown in FIG. 13 is drawn so as to have a substantially rectangular cross section in the middle of the columnar portion 21 in the axial direction, and a pair of recesses 28 are provided on both sides thereof.

また、凹み部28は、外部端子20の軸方向途中の任意の箇所に単独で設けたり、所定間隔をあけて複数設けることもでき、特に限定されない。   Moreover, the recessed part 28 can also be provided independently in the arbitrary locations in the middle of the external terminal 20 in the axial direction, or a plurality of the recessed parts 28 can be provided at predetermined intervals, and is not particularly limited.

また、凹み部28の形状としては、図10〜13に示す外部端子20e、20f、20g、20hに形成されたものに限定されない。   Moreover, as a shape of the recessed part 28, it is not limited to what was formed in the external terminals 20e, 20f, 20g, and 20h shown to FIGS.

次に、上記半導体装置の製造方法となる、本発明の半導体装置の製造方法の第4実施形態について説明する。   Next, a fourth embodiment of the method for manufacturing a semiconductor device of the present invention, which is a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device, will be described.

始めに外部端子20の軸方向途中に所定の絞り加工を施して、凹み部28を形成しておおく(凹み部形成工程)。次いで、絶縁配線基板3の金属層5に外部端子接続穴5aを形成し、これに外部端子20を圧入する(圧入工程)。その後、冷却板1上にはんだ層7aを介して絶縁配線基板3を配置すると共に、絶縁配線基板3にはんだ層7bを介して半導体素子8を配置した後、リフロー炉に導入して冷却板1と絶縁配線基板3の金属層6とを接合して、半導体素子8と絶縁配線基板3の金属層5とを接合する(リフロー工程)。次に、各半導体素子8と外部端子20とをボンディングワイヤ9を介して電気的に接続する。そして、冷却板1の周囲を樹脂ケース2で囲い、外部端子20の凹み部28が、封止樹脂10で覆われるように、樹脂ケース2で囲われた内部に封止樹脂10を充填し、封止樹脂10を硬化することで上記半導体装置が製造される(図9参照)。   First, a predetermined drawing process is performed in the middle of the external terminal 20 in the axial direction to form the recessed portion 28 (a recessed portion forming step). Subsequently, the external terminal connection hole 5a is formed in the metal layer 5 of the insulated wiring board 3, and the external terminal 20 is press-fitted into this (press-fit process). Thereafter, the insulating wiring substrate 3 is disposed on the cooling plate 1 via the solder layer 7a, and the semiconductor element 8 is disposed on the insulating wiring substrate 3 via the solder layer 7b. And the metal layer 6 of the insulated wiring board 3 are joined, and the semiconductor element 8 and the metal layer 5 of the insulated wiring board 3 are joined (reflow process). Next, each semiconductor element 8 and the external terminal 20 are electrically connected via a bonding wire 9. Then, the periphery of the cooling plate 1 is surrounded by the resin case 2, and the inside of the resin case 2 is filled with the sealing resin 10 so that the recessed portion 28 of the external terminal 20 is covered with the sealing resin 10. The semiconductor device is manufactured by curing the sealing resin 10 (see FIG. 9).

これにより外部端子20の凹み部28が封止樹脂10で覆われるので、外部端子20に引き抜き力が作用しても、凹み部28内に充填された封止樹脂10に引っ掛かって抵抗となり、外部端子20の金属層5に対する引き抜き強度を向上させることができる。   As a result, the recessed portion 28 of the external terminal 20 is covered with the sealing resin 10, so that even if a pulling force acts on the external terminal 20, it is caught by the sealing resin 10 filled in the recessed portion 28 and becomes a resistance. The pull-out strength with respect to the metal layer 5 of the terminal 20 can be improved.

なお、以上説明した各実施形態においては、樹脂ケース2で囲まれた内部空間に封止樹脂10が充填されるようになっているが、樹脂ケース2を用いずに半導体装置を封止樹脂10で封止した構造としてもよい。例えば、所定形状をなした金型のキャビティ内に各半導体装置を配置しておき、その状態で金型のキャビティ内に封止樹脂10を充填して硬化させた後、金型から各半導体装置を取り出すことで、樹脂ケース2を用いずに半導体装置を封止樹脂10で封止した構造とすることができる。図14〜17には、このような樹脂ケース2を用いない半導体装置の例が示されている。   In each of the embodiments described above, the sealing resin 10 is filled in the internal space surrounded by the resin case 2. However, the semiconductor device is sealed without using the resin case 2. It is good also as a structure sealed with. For example, each semiconductor device is placed in a cavity of a mold having a predetermined shape, and in that state, the sealing resin 10 is filled in the cavity of the mold and cured, and then each semiconductor device is removed from the mold. As a result, the semiconductor device can be sealed with the sealing resin 10 without using the resin case 2. 14 to 17 show examples of semiconductor devices that do not use such a resin case 2.

図14に示す半導体装置は、樹脂ケース2を使用せずに、その外周全体が封止樹脂10で覆われた形状をなしている。その他の形状は前記各実施形態と同様である。   The semiconductor device shown in FIG. 14 has a shape in which the entire outer periphery thereof is covered with the sealing resin 10 without using the resin case 2. Other shapes are the same as those in the above embodiments.

図16に示す半導体装置は、ワイヤボンディング9を用いる代わりに、各半導体素子8と外部端子20とを、リードフレーム12を介して電気的に接続した構造をなしている。リードフレーム12の一端は、はんだ層7cを介して各半導体素子8に接続され、他端は、はんだ層7cを介して絶縁配線基板3の金属層5に接続されている。   The semiconductor device shown in FIG. 16 has a structure in which each semiconductor element 8 and the external terminal 20 are electrically connected via the lead frame 12 instead of using the wire bonding 9. One end of the lead frame 12 is connected to each semiconductor element 8 via the solder layer 7c, and the other end is connected to the metal layer 5 of the insulating wiring board 3 via the solder layer 7c.

図17に示す半導体装置は、所定の回路パターンが形成されたプリント基板14を介して、各半導体素子8と外部端子20とが電気的に接続された構造をなしている。プリント基板14には接続孔14aが形成されており、外部端子20が挿通されていると共に、はんだ層7cを介して、各半導体素子8がプリント基板14の図示しない配線パターンに接続されている。なお、図17の部分拡大図に示すように、外部端子20に凹み部28が設けられている場合、同凹み部28は、プリント基板14の上方又は下方の位置(図17では、プリント基板14の上方に位置している)となるように形成されている。   The semiconductor device shown in FIG. 17 has a structure in which each semiconductor element 8 and the external terminal 20 are electrically connected via a printed circuit board 14 on which a predetermined circuit pattern is formed. A connection hole 14a is formed in the printed circuit board 14, the external terminal 20 is inserted, and each semiconductor element 8 is connected to a wiring pattern (not shown) of the printed circuit board 14 through the solder layer 7c. As shown in the partially enlarged view of FIG. 17, when the recess 28 is provided in the external terminal 20, the recess 28 is located above or below the printed circuit board 14 (in FIG. 17, in the printed circuit board 14). It is formed so that it may be located above.
