Description

EPOXY RESIN COMPOSITION FOR ENCAPSULATING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE ENCAPSULATED BY USING THE SAME Technical Field [1] The present invention relates to an epoxy resin composition for encapsulating semiconductor devices,

The present invention relates to an epoxy resin composition for sealing semiconductor devices and a semiconductor device sealed by the epoxy resin composition. More particularly, the present invention relates to an epoxy resin composition for encapsulating semiconductor devices comprising a phenolic resin curing agent having a specific structure and a semiconductor element sealed by the epoxy resin composition.

In general, flame retardancy is required in the production of epoxy resin compositions for semiconductor device encapsulation, and most semiconductor companies require UL94 V-0 as a flame retardant. In order to ensure such flame retardancy, epoxy resin compositions for semiconductor encapsulation are manufactured using halogen-based or inorganic flame retardants. Flame retardancy is secured by using brominated epoxy resin and antimony trioxide in the epoxy resin composition for semiconductor encapsulation.

However, in the epoxy resin composition for semiconductor encapsulation which ensures flame retardancy by using such a halogen-based flame retardant, toxic carcinogens such as dioxins and di-furan are generated during incineration or fire, and also by gases such as HBr and HCl Toxic to the human body and cause corrosion of semiconductor chip, wire and lead frame.

Non-halogenated organic flame retardants and inorganic flame retardants have been studied as countermeasures thereto. A novel flame retardant such as a phosphorus flame retardant such as phosphazene or phosphoric acid and a nitrogen element-containing resin such as phosphazene or phosphoric acid ester has been studied as an organic flame retardant, but the nitrogen element-containing resin has a problem of insufficient flame retardancy and excessive use. Organophosphorus flame retardants are excellent in flame retardancy and good in thermal properties, so there is no problem in applying them to epoxy resin compositions for semiconductor encapsulation. However, due to the problem of lower reliability due to inorganic phosphorus flame retardants in the past, Despite the fact that polyphosphoric acid is not produced, it is regulated by semiconductor makers, resulting in restrictions on use.

In addition, new inorganic flame retardants such as magnesium hydroxide or zinc borate have been investigated. However, such inorganic flame retardants have been used to lower the curability of the epoxy resin composition and to lower the curability of the epoxy resin composition.

(1) Moisture absorption rate (wt%): The resin compositions prepared in Examples and Comparative Examples were molded under conditions of a mold temperature of 170 to 180 占 폚, a conveying pressure of 1000 psi, a conveying speed of 0.5 to 1 cm / s, and a curing time of 120 seconds, 50 mm, and a thickness of 1.0 mm. The obtained specimens were placed in an oven at 170 to 180 ° C. and post-cured for 4 hours. The samples were allowed to stand for 168 hours at 85 ° C. and 85 RH% relative humidity, and the weight change due to moisture absorption was measured. 1, the moisture absorption rate was calculated.

[Formula 1]

* Moisture absorption rate = (weight of test piece after moisture absorption - weight of test piece before moisture absorption) ÷ (weight of test piece before moisture absorption) × 100

(2) Flammability: Evaluation was made on the basis of 1/8 inch thickness according to UL-94V standard.

(3) Adhesive force (kgf): A copper metal element was prepared in accordance with the mold for measurement of attachment, and the resin composition prepared in the above Examples and Comparative Examples was transferred to a prepared test piece at a mold temperature of 170 to 180 DEG C, A speed of 0.5 to 1 cm / s, and a curing time of 120 seconds to obtain a cured specimen. The obtained specimen was post-cured (PMC) in an oven at 170 to 180 ° C for 4 hours. In this case, the area of the epoxy resin composition contacting the specimen was 40 ± 1 mm 2, and the adhesion was measured by using a universal testing machine (UTM) for 12 specimens per each measuring step, and then the average value was calculated.

(4) Reliability: The eTQFP package for evaluating the flexural characteristics was dried at 125 캜 for 24 hours, and then allowed to stand for 5 cycles (one cycle consisted of 10 minutes at -65 캜, 10 minutes at 25 캜, ) Were subjected to a thermal shock test. Thereafter, the package was allowed to stand for 168 hours at 85 ° C and 60% relative humidity, and then passed through the IR reflow once for 30 seconds at 260 ° C. After the pre-conditioning condition was repeated three times, And observed with an optical microscope. Then, the occurrence of peeling between the epoxy resin composition and the lead frame was evaluated using a non-destructive inspection C-SAM (Scanning Acoustic Microscopy). When the appearance of the package is cracked or the peeling between the epoxy resin composition and the lead frame occurs, the reliability of the package can not be secured.

The epoxy resin composition having the composition shown in Table 1 was measured according to the above physical property evaluation method, and the results are shown in Table 2 below.
