CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application claims the benefit of U.S. provisional application No. 61/541,235, filed Sept. 30, 2011, and U.S. application No. 13/626,899, filed Sept. 26, 2012. The applications are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates generally to integrated circuit (IC) package technology. More particularly, the present invention relates to a semiconductor package including a leadframe with power bars or power ring, which is capable of improving power supply variations and suppressing power noise.
BACKGROUND
Semiconductor dies are conventionally enclosed in plastic packages that provide protection from harsh environments and enable electrical interconnection between the semiconductor die and a substrate or circuit board. Such an integrated circuit (IC) package typically includes a metal substrate or a leadframe, a semiconductor die mounted on a die pad of the leadframe, and bond wires electrically connecting bond pads on the semiconductor die to inner leads of the leadframe. The leadframe, the bond wires, and the semiconductor die are typically encapsulated in a molding compound.
The technology trends in the back-end packaging industry can be summarized as
"more functionality in a smaller space". The integrated circuit chip is becoming more and more complicated, leading to increased number of external connection pins of the leadframe package. As the pin count is increased, the cost of packaging is increased accordingly.
Further, as the integration and performance of semiconductor dies increase, the impact of power noise on I/O signaling is significant. It is desirable to provide of stable supply voltage during chip operation. Furthermore, in some circumstances, a number of bond wires extending from bond pads on a chip are bonded onto one single inner lead of a leadframe in the package. The crowded wires bonded to one single lead result in reliability and yield issues.
In light of the above, there is a strong need in this industry to provide an improved semiconductor package structure and leadframe package, which are cost- effective, particularly suited for high-speed semiconductor dies, and are capable of improving power supply variations and suppressing power noise.

In another aspect, this disclosure provides a semiconductor package including a die pad, a least one semiconductor die mounted on the die pad, a plurality of inner leads in a first horizontal plane along peripheral edges of the die pad, a plurality of connecting bars supporting the die pad, and a power ring circumventing the die pad.

Please refer to FIGS. 1-3. FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic top view of an exemplary leadframe package 10 according to one embodiment of the invention. FIG. 2 is an enlarged top view showing a germane portion of the leadframe package 10. FIG. 3 is a schematic, cross-sectional view taken along line Ι-Γ of FIG. 1. As shown in FIGS. 1-3, in general, the leadframe package 10 includes at least one semiconductor die 12a that is mounted on a die pad 14 and is adhered to a top surface 14a of the die pad 14 by using an adhesive 24 such as silver paste or epoxy. According to one embodiment, the bottom surface 14b of the die pad 14 may be exposed within the package body. The exposed bottom surface 14b of the die pad 14 helps dissipate heat generated by the semiconductor die 12a, which is also known as an exposed die pad or E-pad configuration. Typically, the exposed bottom surface 14b of the die pad 14 may be used for electrically connecting to a ground layer of a printed circuit board (PCB). According to one embodiment, four slender connecting bars 142a~142d extend inward from respective four corners of the leadframe package 10 to support the die pad 14. Leads 16 including inner leads 116 and outer leads 126 are arranged along the peripheral edges of the die pad 14, which provide electrical connection between the semiconductor die 12a and other devices such as a circuit board. The semiconductor die 12a and the leadframe including the die pad 14 and the inner leads 116 are encapsulated in a molding compound 30.
According to one embodiment, the semiconductor die 12a may be a TV chip or a system-on-a-chip (SoC) chip for digital TV applications, but should not be limited thereto. According to one embodiment, the leadframe package 10 may further include a semiconductor chip 12b. The semiconductor die 12a and the semiconductor chip 12b are disposed side-by-side and are arranged on the same plane (top surface 14a) of the die pad 14. For example, the semiconductor chip 12b may be a DDR2 or DDR3 DRAM chip, but should not be limited thereto. According to one embodiment, the semiconductor chip 12b may be situated farther from a VCCK core power supply rail of a two-layer printed circuit board (not shown) than the semiconductor die 12a. According to one embodiment, several rows of bond pads 123 may be provided on an active top surface 121 of the semiconductor die 12a along four side edges thereof.
According to one embodiment, the inner leads 116 are arranged in a first horizontal plane along the peripheral edges of the die pad 14.

According to one embodiment, the ground bar 130 extends along at least one peripheral edge of the die pad 14 and is integrally connected to one of the connecting bars 142. Therefore, the ground bar 130, the connecting bars 142, and the die pad 14 have the same voltage potential, i.e., ground level.

The third ground bar 130c is integrally connected to the die pad 14 with downset tie bars 144c and is integrally connected to the third connecting bar 142c. In this case, no ground bar is provided around the semiconductor chip 12b.
According to one embodiment, the leadframe package 10 further comprises a power bar 160 disposed on either side of one connecting bar 142 and does not contact the connecting bar 142. That is, the power bar 160 is electrically isolated from the connecting bar 142 and provides power signal having different voltage level from ground level of the connecting bar 142. According to one embodiment, for example, the power bars 160 are flush with the inner leads 116 in the first horizontal plane and extend along the peripheral edges of the die pad 14. Each of the power bars 160 is respectively integrally connected to at least one power leads 16a that are designated to supply power voltage such as core power.

The fourth power bar 160d partially circumvents the die pad 14 and is disposed adjacent to the semiconductor chip 12b. As shown in FIG. 1, the fourth power bar 160d is integrally connected to three power lead 16a. The fourth power bar 160d is electrically connected to the third power bar 160c by using connection member 28 traversing the fourth connecting bar 142d. Optionally, a decoupling capacitor 50 may be mounted between the fourth power bar 160d and the fourth connecting bar 142d for suppressing power noise. Likewise, the fourth power bar 160d is electrically connected to the first power bar 160a by using connection member 28 traversing the first connecting bar 142a. Optionally, a decoupling capacitor 50 may be mounted between the fourth power bar 160d and the first connecting bar 142a for suppressing power noise. According to the embodiment, the first, second, third and fourth power bars are electrically connected together so as to form a continuous power ring that completely circumvents the die pad 14, which reduces the power impedance and the power noise. However, it is to be understood that in some cases the first, second, third and fourth power bars may not be electrically connected together.
According to one embodiment, the bond pads 123 on the semiconductor die 12a, which are also known as input/output pads or I/O pads, may generally comprise ground pads 123a, power pads 123b, and signal pads 123c, etc. The bond pads 123 are electrically coupled to corresponding ground bar 130, the inner leads 116, or the power bar 160 through bond wires 18. For example, the ground pads 123a are electrically coupled to the ground bar 130 through the bond wires 18a, the power pads 123b are electrically coupled to the power bar 160 through the bond wires 18b, and the signal pads 123 c are electrically coupled to the inner leads 116 through the bond wires 18c. More bond wires can be bonded due to the larger area of the power bar that will improve the crowded wires bonded to one single lead resulting in reliability and yield issues.
FIG. 4 is enlarged top view showing a germane portion of a leadframe package in accordance with another embodiment of the invention. FIG. 5 is a schematic, cross- sectional diagram showing a leadframe package in accordance with another embodiment of the invention, wherein like regions, layers or elements are designated by like numeral numbers. As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the connecting bar 142 has a downset structure 242. A downset structure 260 is provided between the power lead 16a and the power bar 160, such that the power bar 160 can be coplanar with the ground bar 130. A decoupling capacitor 50a is mounted between the power bar 160 and the downset connecting bar 142 and a decoupling capacitor 50b is mounted between the power bar 160 and the ground bar 130.
To sum up, this disclosure at least contains the following benefits and advantages. 1). Lower power impedance can be achieved because more power wires can be bonded on a large area of the power bars. 2). Shorter decoupling path due to the incorporation of the in-package decoupling capacitors. 3). Higher assembly yield can be achieved due to relief of the power wires density on the power bar. 4) Less power lead is possible because additional power ring is added to reduce power impedance.
Those skilled in the art will readily observe that numerous modifications and alterations of the device and method may be made while retaining the teachings of the invention. Accordingly, the above disclosure should be construed as limited only by the metes and bounds of the appended claims.
