It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a semiconductor module which enables bonding and can obtain a more reliable bonding portion by performing bonding without using a solder bonding medium. Disclosure of the invention
- a first method of manufacturing a semiconductor module comprises: a first circuit electrode formed on a circuit board; and a back-side device electrode of a semiconductor device having device electrodes formed on both front and back surfaces.
- the pair of conductive portions are opposed to each other, and heated and pressurized at a temperature at which the low-melting-point metal melts at least, and the low-melting-point metal layer is solid-liquid-diffused into the pair of conductive portions. It is characterized by joining parts.
- the low melting point metal layer is formed on a pair of conductive parts to be connected, it depends on the material used as the low melting point metal. In addition, bonding can be performed in a short time, and thermal damage to a semiconductor element can be prevented. Also, the low melting point metal layer only needs to be at least enough to diffuse, and the total thickness Can be set to, for example, 10 m or less, and the junction thickness can be made extremely thin, so that the electric resistance and the thermal resistance of the junction can be made very small. Therefore, since it is possible to reduce the Joule heat at the junction and to expect a heat dissipation effect, it is particularly effective as a joining method for power semiconductors that need to suppress heat generation.
- the reaction layer at the joint interface should be thinner than the solder. This improves the reliability of the joint.
- a second aspect of the method for manufacturing a semiconductor module according to the present invention basically applies the first configuration of the above-described manufacturing method to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor module further including a fourth bonding step between a circuit board and a heat dissipation member.
- a method of manufacturing a semiconductor module comprising: a third bonding step of bonding; and a fourth bonding step of bonding a third circuit electrode formed on the circuit board and a heat dissipation member made of metal,
- a low-melting metal layer is previously formed on at least one of a pair of conductive parts to be connected.
- the pair of conductive parts are opposed to each other, and heated and pressed at least at a temperature at which the low melting point metal is melted, and the low melting point metal layer is solid-liquid diffused into the pair of conductive parts. And bonding the pair of conductive portions. According to this, the same operation and effect as those of the first configuration of the above-described manufacturing method can be obtained.
- the present invention since the present invention has a structure in which the third circuit electrode on the circuit board and the heat radiating member are joined by solid-liquid diffusion, the following operation and effect can be further obtained.
- reducing the thermal resistance at the junction between the third circuit electrode and the heat dissipation member on the circuit board is particularly important for the heat dissipation characteristics of the semiconductor module, but solid-liquid diffusion joining is applied to this junction.
- the bonding thickness can be made extremely thin and the thermal resistance can be made very small as described above. Can be higher.
- Cu materials such as the joint between the third circuit electrode on the circuit board and the heat dissipation member
- the low-melting-point metal layer is formed on at least one of the pair of conductive parts, a metal foil is interposed between the pair of conductive parts, and the pair of conductive parts is heated. Pressing is preferred.
- the low melting point metal diffuses not only to the conductive portion side but also to the intermediate bonding material, In the region of the supplied low-melting-point metal, the diffused layer of the intermediate bonding material expands, so that even if the bonding time is limited, the unreacted portion that remains as the low-melting-point metal does not remain. This prevents the occurrence of defects on the joint surface and enables stable joining.
- the diffusion to both conductive parts becomes non-uniform, which is limited.
- the unreacted portion of the supplied low-melting-point metal which remains at the low-melting-point metal, tends to remain in the region on the conductive part side, where the diffusion rate is slower, but the metal foil is bonded in the middle.
- the diffused layer of the intermediate bonding material spreads to the unreacted portion of the low-melting-point metal on the conductive part side with the slower diffusion speed, so that the unreacted portion remains as the low-melting-point metal. It is possible to prevent the occurrence of defects in the bonding surface and to stably bond different kinds of materials.
- a third method of manufacturing a semiconductor module according to the present invention is a method of bonding a first circuit electrode formed on a circuit board to the back-side device electrode of a semiconductor device having device electrodes formed on both front and back surfaces.
- a low melting point metal layer is previously formed on one or both surfaces of the metal foil, and then a pair of conductive portions to be connected is formed.
- the metal foil is interposed between the pair of conductive portions, and the pair of conductive portions is heated and pressed at a temperature at which the low-melting-point metal is melted at least.
- the pair of conductive portions is joined by solid-liquid diffusion in the pair of conductive portions.
- the layer in which the intermediate bonding material is diffused expands in the region of the supplied low-melting-point metal.
- the reaction portion can be prevented from remaining, and even if the material of the pair of conductive parts is a different material and the diffusion rate of the low melting point metal to each conductive part is different, the diffusion rate can be reduced.
- the diffused layer of the intermediate bonding material spreads to the reaction portion of the low-melting-point metal on the slower conductive part side, so that the unreacted portion remaining as the low-melting-point metal can be prevented from remaining. In this way, the generation of defects is prevented, and stable joining of dissimilar materials becomes possible.
- the low melting point metal layer preferably contains at least one selected from SnIn, In, Bi, and SnBi.
