Definitions
- the present invention relates to a semiconductor device, and in particular, is effectively applied to an analog / digital hybrid semiconductor device in which an analog module (analog circuit) and a digital module (digital circuit) are integrated on the same semiconductor chip.
- an analog module analog circuit
- a digital module digital circuit
- JP-A-58-70565 and JP-A-59-193046 describe that noise generated in a digital circuit section is mixed into an analog circuit section,
- the document states that the power supply wiring for each of the digital circuit and the analog circuit is provided independently to prevent the malfunction of the circuit from malfunctioning.
- Ma Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-271567 discloses a digital circuit unit and an analog circuit unit using a substrate having an SOI (Silicon On Insulator) structure and a separation groove reaching an insulating layer of the substrate. And a technique for insulating and separating the same.
- SOI Silicon On Insulator
- the present inventor has found the following problems as a result of studying the electrical reliability of the analog-Z digital mixed-type semiconductor integrated circuit device.
- the power supply wiring and the ground (GND) self-line formed on the main surface of the semiconductor chip are formed independently of the analog circuit and the digital circuit. Therefore, the noise from the power supply wiring and the noise from the ground (GND) wiring rarely interact with each other.
- the ground (GND) wiring of each of the analog circuit and the digital circuit is the same as that of the encapsulant (LSI package). Externally, it is connected to the common ground (GND) wiring on the mounting board, but the common ground (GND) wiring on the mounting board is much higher than the ground (GND) wiring formed on the semiconductor chip. The effect of noise is small because the impedance is low.
- the above-mentioned conventional technology does not consider noise transmitted through the inside of a half chip, and furthermore, noise transmitted through a metal lead frame on which a semiconductor chip is mounted. Can not be effectively reduced and prevented.
- the semiconductor chip 1 is usually mounted on a metal lead frame, and a conductive adhesive 3 such as silver (Ag) paste is used to support the chip supporting portion (die pad portion) of the lead frame. It is fixed to 2 (in the figure, the lead portion of the lead frame and a sealing material such as resin are omitted for convenience of explanation).
- the chip supporting portion (die pad portion) 2 on which the semiconductor chip 1 is mounted is a conductor having a very low resistance over the entire surface.
- the noise generated by the digital module 5 was easily transmitted to the analog module via a path via the chip supporting section (die pad section) 2, and it became clear that the performance of the analog module was degraded and a malfunction was caused.
- the resistance of the path 6 that propagates in the silicon substrate 1 in the lateral direction is about 16.5 ⁇ .
- the noise generated by the digital module 5 is once transmitted to the vertical metal chip supporting portion (die pad portion) 2 and further through the chip supporting portion (die pad portion) 2 to the lower part of the analog module 4.
- the resistance of the path 7, which reenters the silicon substrate 1 in the vertical direction from the part and is transmitted to the analog module, is sufficient for the resistance of the metal chip support part (die pad part) 2 to be greater than the resistance of the silicon substrate 1. Because it is small, it becomes about 15 ⁇ .
- the metal chip support (die pad) is sealed in an electrically floating state inside the sealing body (LSI package), it is transmitted from the digital module to the chip support (die pad).
- the ground noise (GND) wiring formed on the surface of the silicon substrate is electrically connected to the low-impedance common ground wiring formed on the mounting board outside the sealing body (LSI package). The probability of returning to the silicon substrate is high. As a result, there is a problem that the electrical reliability of the analog / digital hybrid semiconductor integrated circuit device is further reduced. Occurs.
- the thickness of an insulating film such as a silicon oxide film used in a semiconductor substrate or in a semiconductor manufacturing process is about 1, so if the area of the insulating film portion is 4.6 ran2 or more, for example,
- the SOI substrate cannot supply ground potential (GND) from the back side of the substrate due to its structure, it is disadvantageous in terms of noise absorption efficiency and stabilization of the substrate potential.
- GND ground potential
- An object of the present invention is to improve the electrical reliability of an analog / digital hybrid semiconductor integrated circuit device.
- Another object of the present invention is to improve the electrical reliability of a semiconductor device including an analog / digital mixed semiconductor integrated circuit device.
- Another object of the present invention is to reduce the cost of a semiconductor device including a mixed analog / digital semiconductor integrated circuit device.
- a semiconductor device including an analog / digital hybrid semiconductor device includes a chip support portion made of a conductive layer to which a ground potential is supplied, a semiconductor substrate (semiconductor chip) mounted on the chip support portion, and A digital module formed in a first region of the main surface of the semiconductor substrate; and an analog module formed in a second region of the main surface of the semiconductor substrate different from the first region.
- the semiconductor substrate is electrically connected only at a lower portion of the first region, and is not electrically connected at a lower portion of the second region. Further, an insulating layer is formed below the second region, between the chip supporting portion and the semiconductor substrate.
- a semiconductor device including an analog-Z digital mixed-type semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a chip supporting portion made of a conductive layer to which a ground potential is supplied, a semiconductor substrate (semiconductor chip) mounted on the chip supporting portion, A digital module formed in a first region of the main surface of the semiconductor substrate, and an analog module formed in a second region of the main surface of the semiconductor substrate different from the first region;
- the chip support portion is provided only at the lower portion, and the chip support portion and the semiconductor substrate are electrically connected at a lower portion of the first region.
- the chip support and the semiconductor substrate are electrically connected only at the lower part of the digital module, or because the chip support does not exist at the lower part of the analog module, noise generated in the digital module is reduced. Since the path for transmitting to the analog module via the chip supporting portion composed of the analog module can be cut off, the influence of noise on the analog module can be reduced. Also, by making the chip support below the digital module a conductive layer, noise generated by the digital module can be reduced via the chip support to a mounting board with low-impedance common ground wiring. Since it is possible to escape to the outside of the device, the effect of noise on the analog module can be reduced. In addition, since the ground potential can be positively applied to the semiconductor substrate via the chip supporting portion, the potential of the semiconductor substrate can be stabilized. Accordingly, it is possible to improve the electrical reliability of the semiconductor device including the analog / Z-digital hybrid type semiconductor integrated circuit device.
- the above-described configuration is such that the semiconductor substrate and the chip supporting portion below the analog module are provided. This can be achieved by a simple process of forming an insulating layer having a desired thickness between the two or removing the chip supporting portion under the analog module. The electrical reliability of the semiconductor device can be improved, and the cost can be reduced.
