Abstract

많은 수의 동일한 구조들을 갖는 반도체 웨이퍼(21)에 큰 면적의 접착 필름(20)을 부착한다. 이후, 필름(20) 및 웨이퍼(21)를 동시에 단일화한 다음, 필름이 부착되어 있는 각 다이를 리드 프레임 상에 배치한다. 상기 필름을 완전히 경화시켜 반도체 다이를 리드 프레임에 부착한다. 공통 기판 상에 복수의 다이들을 다이 옆에 다이가 있는 형태로 장착하거나, 1개의 다이를 기판(11) 상에 있는 제 2 다이 상에 장착할 수 있다.A large area of the adhesive film 20 is attached to the semiconductor wafer 21 having a large number of identical structures. Thereafter, the film 20 and the wafer 21 are simultaneously unified, and then, each die to which the film is attached is placed on the lead frame. The film is fully cured to attach the semiconductor die to the lead frame. A plurality of dies may be mounted on a common substrate in the form of a die next to the die, or one die may be mounted on a second die on the substrate 11.

그런 다음, 이러한 접착 필름들을 이용하여 저 파워 집적 회로들을 리드 프레임들에 본딩시킨다. 본 발명에 따르면, 도전성 또는 절연성 접착 필름들을 이용하여 파워 반도체들을 기판들/리드 프레임들에 본딩시킨다.These adhesive films are then used to bond the low power integrated circuits to the lead frames. According to the present invention, power semiconductors are bonded to substrates / lead frames using conductive or insulating adhesive films.

종래에는, 접착 필름들을 미리 자른 다음, 필름 상에 다이를 배치하기 전에 기판 상에 배치한다. 이후, 이렇게 얻어진 기판/필름/다이 어셈블리를 부분적으로 열처리하여 다이/리드 프레임 간에 접착이 이루어지게 한다. 본 발명에 따르면, 다이 단일화 단계 이전에 접착 필름을 파워 반도체 웨이퍼 상에 배치한다. 이후, 웨이퍼/접착 필름 스택을 종래의 단일화 방법들을 이용하여 분리함으로써, 접착 필름이 미리 부착된 다이를 생성한다. 이후, 분리된 다이/필름 스택을 기판/리드 프레임 상에 배치한 다음, 열처리에 의해 접착 필름을 재활성화시켜 본딩을 촉진시키고 경화를 완료한다.Conventionally, the adhesive films are cut in advance and then placed on a substrate before placing the die on the film. Subsequently, the substrate / film / die assembly thus obtained is partially heat treated to bond between the die / lead frames. According to the present invention, the adhesive film is placed on a power semiconductor wafer prior to the die singulation step. Thereafter, the wafer / adhesive film stack is separated using conventional unification methods to produce a die with the adhesive film pre-attached. Thereafter, the separated die / film stack is placed on the substrate / lead frame, and then heat treated to reactivate the adhesive film to promote bonding and complete curing.

본 발명은 많은 장점들을 제공한다. 즉, 종래의 파워 반도체 다이 부착은 페이스트 또는 액체 형태의 에폭시 수지 또는 솔더 타입의 접착제들을 이용한다. 이러한 물질들은 종종 다이 본딩을 하는 동안 다이의 에지로부터 기판/리드 프레임 상으로 흘러 넘친다. 이렇게 물질들이 흘러 넘치게 되면, 리드 프레임/기판 상에 배치할 수 있는 다이의 사이즈를 제한한다. 접착 필름을 이용하여 이러한 넘쳐 흐름을 제거한다. 이렇게 되면, 소정 사이즈의 패키지에 보다 큰 다이를 배치할 수 있게 된다. 본딩 라인의 두께 또한 접착 필름의 두께에 의해 설정되어 일정하게 된다. 본딩 내의 공극들이 또한 존재하지 않게 된다.The present invention provides many advantages. That is, conventional power semiconductor die attach uses epoxy resin or solder type adhesives in paste or liquid form. These materials often flow from the edge of the die onto the substrate / lead frame during die bonding. This overflowing material limits the size of the die that can be placed on the lead frame / substrate. An adhesive film is used to remove this overflow. This makes it possible to place a larger die in a package of a predetermined size. The thickness of the bonding line is also set and made constant by the thickness of the adhesive film. The voids in the bond also become absent.

또한, 다이 단일화 이전에 전기적으로 도전성이거나 (또는 전기적으로 절연성인) 접착 필름을 파워 반도체 웨이퍼 상에 미리 본딩하게 되면, 어셈블리 동안 별도의 픽 앤 플레이스(pick and place) 단계가 불필요해진다. 이에 따라, 제조 장비의 비용이 감소되어 사이클 타임(cycle time)이 짧아진다.In addition, the pre-bonding of an electrically conductive (or electrically insulating) adhesive film onto the power semiconductor wafer prior to die singulation eliminates the need for a separate pick and place step during assembly. This reduces the cost of manufacturing equipment and shortens the cycle time.

도 1 및 2는 파워 반도체 다이(10) 및 도전성 기판(11)을 도시하는바, 이들은 솔더 또는 에폭시 수지 부착 물질(12)에 의해 부착된다. 주목할 사항으로서, 상기 물질(12)은 통상적으로 흘러 넘치기 때문에, 소정 면적의 기판 상에서의 다이의 최대 사이즈를 한정한다.1 and 2 show a power semiconductor die 10 and a conductive substrate 11, which are attached by solder or epoxy resin attachment substance 12. Note that the material 12 typically overflows, thus limiting the maximum size of the die on a substrate of a given area.

도 3 및 4는, 얇고 유연한 접착 필름(13)을 이용하여 다이(10)와 기판(11)을 본딩하는 도 1 및 2의 다이(10)를 도시한다. 필름(13)은 전기적으로 도전성이거나 절연성이며, 열 경화가 가능하다. 도 3 및 4에서 볼 수 있는 바와 같이, 이러한 필름을 이용하게 되면 넘쳐 흐름을 없애기 때문에, 도 1 및 2의 기판과 같은 면적의 기판(11) 상에 보다 큰 면적의 다이(10)를 가능하게 한다.3 and 4 show the die 10 of FIGS. 1 and 2 bonding the die 10 and the substrate 11 using a thin flexible adhesive film 13. The film 13 is electrically conductive or insulating and can be thermally cured. As can be seen in Figures 3 and 4, the use of such a film eliminates the overflow, thereby allowing a larger area die 10 on a substrate 11 of the same area as the substrates of Figures 1 and 2. do.

도 5 내지 8은 본 발명의 새로운 방법을 도시한다. 도 5는 통상적인 방법으로 동시에 처리되는 많은 수의 동일한 파워 반도체 다이를 포함하는 반도체 디바이스 웨이퍼(21)를 도시한다. 따라서, 웨이퍼는 수 백개의 동일한 수직 전도 파워 MOSFET 다이를 포함할 수 있는바, 이들의 상부 표면에는 통상적으로 도전성 소스 전극 및 하부의 도전성 드레인 전극으로 덮여져 있는 P/N 접합들을 있다. 통상적인 분리 장치(sawing apparatus)를 이용하여 웨이퍼를 분리함으로써, 웨이퍼의 다이를 단일화한다. 이후, 다이의 드레인 전극을 기판에 솔더링 또는 에폭시 수지 본딩함으로써, 개별적인 다이를 리드 프레임 또는 다른 기판 상에 장착한다.5-8 illustrate a novel method of the present invention. 5 shows a semiconductor device wafer 21 comprising a large number of identical power semiconductor dies processed simultaneously in a conventional manner. Thus, a wafer may include hundreds of identical vertical conducting power MOSFET dies, on their upper surface having P / N junctions that are typically covered by a conductive source electrode and a conductive drain electrode below. The die of the wafer is unified by isolating the wafer using a conventional sawing apparatus. The individual dies are then mounted on a lead frame or other substrate by soldering or epoxy resin bonding the drain electrodes of the die to the substrate.

Is used. This Kapton polyimide is an excellent insulator. Thereafter, the wafers 21 and the film 20 are laminated to each other and then preheated to improve adhesion, but do not completely cure the film 20.

이후, 도 6에 개략적으로 도시한 바와 같이, 필름(20) 및 웨이퍼(21)를 절단 라인들(22)을 따라 동시에 분리하여 개별적인 다이를 형성한다. 통상적인 프레임 또는 지지체가 상기 분리된 필름/다이 스택들을 적소에 유지한 다음, 스택들을 통상적인 픽 앤 플레이스 장치(pick and place apparatus)에 배치하게 되면, 단일화된 디바이스들은 자동 방식으로 각각의 가열된 리드 프레임들 또는 기판들 상의 장착될 위치로 픽업되어 옮겨진다.6, the film 20 and the wafer 21 are then simultaneously separated along the cutting lines 22 to form individual dies. If a conventional frame or support holds the separated film / die stacks in place and then places the stacks in a conventional pick and place apparatus, the unitized devices are automatically Picked up and moved to the position to be mounted on the lead frames or substrates.

따라서, 도 7에 도시한 바와 같이, 통상적인 픽 앤 플레이스 장치를 이용하여 다이/필름 스택(21/20)을 각 기판(11) 상에 배치한다. 바람직하게는, 압력을 가하여, 예열된 기판(11)의 표면에 스택(21/20)을 누른다.Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, the die / film stack 21/20 is disposed on each substrate 11 using a conventional pick and place apparatus. Preferably, pressure is applied to the stack 21/20 against the surface of the preheated substrate 11.

이후, 다이/필름 스택(21/20) 및 기판(11)을 약 260℃로 가열하여 필름(21)을 완전히 경화시킴으로써, 기판(11)에 대한 본딩을 형성한다.The die / film stack 21/20 and the substrate 11 are then heated to about 260 ° C. to completely cure the film 21 to form a bond to the substrate 11.

도 7 및 8의 구조를 실시하여, 다이 위에 다이가 있는 패키지(도 9) 또는 다이 옆에 다이가 있는 패키지(도 10)를 형성할 수 있다. 따라서, 도 9에서는, 접착층들(20) 및 반도체 다이들(21)을 갖는 2개의 동일한 다이들(30 및 31)가 장착하는바, 다이(30) 위에 다이(31)를 장착한다. 다이들(30 및 31)는 각각 다른 종류의 디바이스들, 예를 들어 MOSFET 및 쇼트키 다이오드가 될 수 있으며, 서로 다른 사이즈들 또는 면적들을 가질 수 있다. 대안적으로, 다이(31)는 집적 회로가 될 수 있다.The structures of FIGS. 7 and 8 can be implemented to form a package with a die (FIG. 9) over a die or a package with a die next to the die (FIG. 10). Thus, in FIG. 9, two identical dies 30 and 31 with adhesive layers 20 and semiconductor dies 21 are mounted, which mounts the die 31 over the die 30. Dies 30 and 31 may each be different kinds of devices, for example MOSFETs and Schottky diodes, and may have different sizes or areas. Alternatively, die 31 may be an integrated circuit.

또한, 도 9의 층들(20)은 다이들(30 및 31)을 배면(back to back) 결합할 수있는 적절한 도전성 접착 필름이 될 수 있다.In addition, the layers 20 of FIG. 9 may be any suitable conductive adhesive film capable of backing back the dies 30 and 31.
