 近年、炭化ケイ素などを材料とした化合物半導体基板を含むMOSFETを備えた半導体装置が普及しつつある。当該MOSFETは、従来のMOSFETと比較して、素子の大きさをより小さくしつつ、電流の変換効率をより向上させることが可能という利点がある。特許文献1に開示されている半導体装置において当該MOSFETを採用する場合、ハンダによりドレイン電極をドレインリードに電気的に接合させる際、当該ドレインリードに対して当該MOSFETの位置がずれることがある。このことは、当該MOSFETの自重が比較的小であることと、ハンダをリフローにより溶融させることに起因する。さらに、ドレインリードの厚さ方向に沿って視て、ゲート電極の面積は、ソース電極の面積よりも小である。このため、ダイパッドに対して当該MOSFETの位置ずれが生じると、特にゲート電極に対する金属クリップの接合面積が極度に縮小するおそれがある。このことは、ゲート電極に対する金属クリップの接合状態の悪化を来すため、当該半導体装置の歩留まりの低下を招く要因となる。

 本開示を実施するための形態について、添付図面に基づいて説明する。
 図1~図14に基づき、本開示の一実施形態にかかる半導体装置A10について説明する。半導体装置A10は、たとえばDC-DCコンバータといった、電力変換回路を備える電子機器などに使用される。半導体装置A10は、ダイパッド10、第1リード11、第2リード12、第3リード13、半導体素子20、第1接合層21、第2接合層22、第3接合層23、第1導電部材31、第2導電部材32および封止樹脂40を備える。ここで、図3は、理解の便宜上、封止樹脂40を透過している。図3では、透過した封止樹脂40を想像線(二点鎖線)で示している。
 半導体装置A10の説明においては、便宜上、ダイパッド10の厚さ方向を「厚さ方向z」と呼ぶ。厚さ方向zに対して直交する方向を「第1方向x」と呼ぶ。厚さ方向zおよび第1方向xの双方に対して直交する方向を「第2方向y」と呼ぶ。厚さ方向zに沿って視て、第1方向xは、半導体装置A10の長手方向に相当する。厚さ方向zに沿って視て、第2方向yは、半導体装置A10の短手方向に相当する。
 ダイパッド10は、図3、および図7~図9に示すように、半導体素子20を搭載する導電部材である。ダイパッド10は、第1リード11、第2リード12および第3リード13とともに、同一のリードフレームから構成されている。当該リードフレームは、銅(Cu)、または銅合金である。このため、ダイパッド10、第1リード11、第2リード12および第3リード13の各々の組成は、銅を含む(すなわち、各部材は銅を含有する)。図9に示すように、ダイパッド10は、主面101、裏面102および貫通孔103を有する。主面101は、厚さ方向zを向く。主面101の上に、半導体素子20が搭載される。裏面102は、厚さ方向zにおいて主面101とは反対側を向く。裏面102には、たとえば錫(Sn)めっきが施されている。貫通孔103は、厚さ方向zにおいて主面101から裏面102に至ってダイパッド10を貫通している。貫通孔103は、厚さ方向zに沿って視て円形状である。図7に示すように、ダイパッド10の厚さTは、第1リード11の最大厚さtmaxよりも大である。
 半導体素子20は、図3、および図7~図9に示すように、ダイパッド10の主面101の上に搭載されている。半導体素子20は、たとえば縦型構造のMOSFET(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor)である。半導体装置A10の説明においては、半導体素子20は、nチャンネル型であり、かつ縦型構造のMOSFETを対象とする。半導体素子20は、化合物半導体基板を含む。当該化合物半導体基板の主材料は、炭化ケイ素(SiC)である。この他、当該化合物半導体基板の主材料として、窒化ガリウム(GaN)を用いてもよい。半導体装置A10においては、厚さ方向zに沿って視て、半導体素子20の面積は、ダイパッド10の主面101の面積の40%以下である。厚さ方向zに沿って視て、半導体素子20の面積は、主面101の面積の20%以下であってもよく、さらには10%以下であってもよい。この比率は、半導体素子20の当該面積と、主面101の当該面積との変遷によって変わり得る。図11、図12および図14に示すように、半導体素子20は、第1電極201、第2電極202および第3電極203を有する。
 図12および図14に示すように、第1電極201は、ダイパッド10の主面101に対向して設けられている。第1電極201には、電力変換対象となる直流の電源電圧が印加される。すなわち、第1電極201は、ドレイン電極に相当する。
 図12および図14に示すように、第2電極202は、厚さ方向zにおいて第1電極201とは反対側に設けられている。第2電極202には、半導体素子20により変換された電流が流れる。すなわち、第2電極202は、ソース電極に相当する。
 図11および図14に示すように、第3電極203は、厚さ方向zにおいて第1電極201とは反対側に設けられ、かつ第2電極202から離れて位置する。第3電極203には、半導体素子20が駆動するためのゲート電圧が印加される。すなわち、第3電極203は、ゲート電極に相当する。当該ゲート電圧に基づき、半導体素子20は、第1電極201に印加された電源電圧に対応する電流を変換する。厚さ方向zに沿って視て、第3電極203の面積は、第2電極202の面積よりも小である。
 第1接合層21は、図12および図14に示すように、ダイパッド10の主面101と、半導体素子20の第1電極201との間に介在する部分を含む。第1接合層21は、導電性を有する。第1接合層21は、第1電極201と主面101とを電気的に接合する。これにより、半導体装置A10においては、第1電極201が主面101に電気的に接合され、かつ第1電極201がダイパッド10に導通する構成となっている。第1接合層21は、錫を含有する。第1接合層21の材料は、たとえば鉛フリーハンダである。第1接合層21は、鉛ハンダでもよい。
 第1リード11は、図3および図7に示すように、ダイパッド10から離れて位置する。第1リード11は、第1方向xに沿って延びている。第1リード11は、半導体素子20の第2電極202に導通している。このため、第1リード11は、半導体装置A10のソース端子に相当する。第1リード11は、被覆部111、露出部112、第1接合面113を有する。被覆部111は、封止樹脂40に覆われている。露出部112は、被覆部111につながり、かつ封止樹脂40から露出している。露出部112は、第1方向xにおいてダイパッド10から遠ざかる側に延びている。露出部112の表面には、たとえば錫めっきが施されている。第1接合面113は、厚さ方向zにおいてダイパッド10の主面101と同じ側を向く。第1接合面113は、被覆部111の一部に含まれる。厚さ方向zにおいて、第1接合面113は、主面101に対して半導体素子20寄りに位置する。
 第2リード12は、図3および図8に示すように、ダイパッド10および第1リード11の双方から離れて位置する。第2リード12は、第1方向xに沿って延びている。半導体装置A10においては、第2リード12は、第2方向yにおいて第3リード13に対して第1リード11とは反対側に位置する。第2リード12は、半導体素子20の第3電極203に導通している。このため、第2リード12は、半導体装置A10のゲート端子に相当する。第2リード12は、被覆部121、露出部122、第2接合面123を有する。被覆部121は、封止樹脂40に覆われている。露出部122は、被覆部121につながり、かつ封止樹脂40から露出している。露出部122は、第1方向xにおいてダイパッド10から遠ざかる側に延びている。露出部122の表面には、錫めっきが施されている。第2接合面123は、厚さ方向zにおいてダイパッド10の主面101と同じ側を向く。第2接合面123は、被覆部121の一部に含まれる。厚さ方向zにおいて、第2接合面123は、主面101に対して半導体素子20寄りに位置する。図10に示すように、厚さ方向zにおいて、第2接合面123の位置は、第1リード11の第1接合面113の位置と同一である。
 第3リード13は、図3および図9に示すように、第1方向xに沿って延びる部分を含むとともに、ダイパッド10につながっている。第3リード13の材料は、ダイパッド10の材料と同一である。第3リード13は、被覆部131および露出部132を有する。被覆部131は、ダイパッド10につながり、かつ封止樹脂40に覆われている。第2方向yに沿って視て、被覆部131は、屈曲している。露出部132は、被覆部131につながり、かつ封止樹脂40から露出している。露出部132は、第1方向xにおいてダイパッド10から遠ざかる側に延びている。露出部132の表面には、錫めっきが施されている。
 図5に示すように、半導体装置A10において、第1リード11の露出部112、第2リード12の露出部122、および第3リード13の露出部132の各々の高さhは、いずれも同一である。このため、第2方向yに沿って視て、第3リード13の少なくとも一部(露出部132)が、第1リード11および第2リード12の各々に重なっている(図6参照)。
 第1導電部材31は、図3および図7に示すように、半導体素子20の第2電極202と、第1リード11の第1接合面113とに電気的に接合されている。これにより、第1リード11は、第2電極202に導通している。第1導電部材31は、銅を含有する。半導体装置A10においては、第1導電部材31は、定尺の金属クリップである。図12および図13に示すように、第1導電部材31は、第1接合部311および第2接合部312を有する。第1接合部311は、第1導電部材31の一端に位置し、かつ第1導電部材31を第2電極202に電気的に接合させる部分である。第2接合部312は、第1導電部材31の他端に位置し、かつ第1導電部材31を第1接合面113に電気的に接合させる部分である。
 第2接合層22は、図12に示すように、半導体素子20の第2電極202と、第1導電部材31の第1接合部311との間に介在する部分を含む。第2接合層22は、導電性を有する。第2接合層22は、第1接合部311と第2電極202とを電気的に接合する。これにより、半導体装置A10においては、第1導電部材31が第2電極202に電気的に接合され、かつ第1導電部材31が第2電極202に導通する構成となっている。第2接合層22は、錫を含有する。第2接合層22は、第1接合層21と同一の材料からなる。さらに、第1接合層21の厚さt1は、第2接合層22の厚さt2よりも大となっている。
 第3接合層23は、図13に示すように、第1リード11の第1接合面113と、第1導電部材31の第2接合部312との間に介在する部分を含む。第3接合層23は、導電性を有する。第3接合層23は、第2接合部312と第1接合面113とを電気的に接合する。これにより、半導体装置A10においては、第1導電部材31が第1接合面113に電気的に接合され、かつ第1導電部材31が第1リード11に導通する構成となっている。第3接合層23は、第1接合層21と同一の材料からなる。
 第2導電部材32は、図3および図8に示すように、半導体素子20の第3電極203と、第2リード12の第2接合面123とに電気的に接合されている。これにより、第2リード12は、第3電極203に導通している。第2導電部材32は、アルミニウム(Al)を含有する。半導体装置A10においては、第2導電部材32は、ワイヤである。第2導電部材32は、ワイヤボンディングにより形成される。図8に示すように、第2導電部材32は、第3接合部321および第4接合部322を有する。図14に示すように、第3接合部321は、第2導電部材32の一端に位置し、かつ第2導電部材32を第3電極203に電気的に接合させる部分である。第2導電部材32をワイヤボンディングにより形成する際、第3接合部321は、当該ボンディングの始点に相当する。第4接合部322は、第2導電部材32の他端に位置し、かつ第2導電部材32を第2接合面123に電気的に接合させる部分である。第2導電部材32をワイヤボンディングにより形成する際、第4接合部322は、当該ボンディングの終点に相当する。
 第1導電部材31と第2導電部材32との相違点について以下説明する。第2導電部材32のヤング率(弾性率)は、第1導電部材31のヤング率よりも小である。このことは、先述のとおり、第1導電部材31は銅を含有し、かつ第2導電部材32はアルミニウムを含有することに基づく。このため、第2導電部材32の線膨張係数は、第1導電部材31の線膨張係数よりも大である。あわせて、第2導電部材32の熱伝導率は、第1導電部材31の熱伝導率よりも小である。さらに、図11に示すように、第1導電部材31の幅Bは、第2導電部材32の幅(直径)Dよりも大である。
 封止樹脂40は、図3、および図7~図10に示すように、半導体素子20、第1導電部材31および第2導電部材32と、ダイパッド10、第1リード11、第2リード12および第3リード13の各々の一部ずつとを覆っている。封止樹脂40は、電気絶縁性を有する。封止樹脂40は、たとえば黒色のエポキシ樹脂を含む材料からなる。封止樹脂40は、頂面41、底面42、一対の第1側面43、一対の第2側面44、一対の開口45、および取付け孔46を有する。
 図7~図10に示すように、頂面41は、厚さ方向zにおいてダイパッド10の主面101と同じ側を向く。図7~図9に示すように、底面42は、厚さ方向zにおいて頂面41とは反対側を向く。底面42からダイパッド10の裏面102が露出している。
 図2、図4および図6に示すように、一対の第1側面43は、第1方向xにおいて互いに離れて位置する。一対の第1側面43の各々は、頂面41および底面42につながっている。図5に示すように、一対の第1側面43のうち一方の当該第1側面43から、第1リード11の露出部112、第2リード12の露出部122、および第3リード13の露出部132が露出している。
 図2、図4および図5に示すように、一対の第2側面44は、第2方向yにおいて互いに離れて位置する。一対の第2側面44の各々は、頂面41および底面42につながっている。図2、図6および図8に示すように、一対の開口45は、第2方向yにおいて互いに離れて位置する。一対の開口45の各々は、頂面41と、一対の第2側面44のいずれかとの双方から封止樹脂40の内方に向けて凹んでいる。一対の開口45の各々から、ダイパッド10の主面101の一部が露出している。図2、図4および図9に示すように、取付け孔46は、厚さ方向zにおいて頂面41から底面42に至って封止樹脂40を貫通している。厚さ方向zに沿って視て、取付け孔46は、ダイパッド10の貫通孔103に内包されている。貫通孔103を規定するダイパッド10の周面は、封止樹脂40に覆われている。これにより、厚さ方向zに沿って視て、取付け孔46の最大寸法は、貫通孔103の寸法よりも小となっている。
 次に、図15~図23に基づき、半導体装置A10の製造方法の一例について説明する。ここで、図18および図20の断面位置は、図12の断面位置と同一である。図21の断面位置は、図13の断面位置と同一である。
 最初に、図15に示すように、ダイパッド10の主面101の上に第1接合材81を配置する。ここで、第1リード11、第2リード12および第3リード13は、リードフレームを構成するタイバー80により互いに連結されている。タイバー80は、第2方向yに沿って延びている。第1接合材81は、導電性を有する。第1接合材81は、クリームハンダ、または線ハンダである。第1接合材81が線ハンダである場合、当該第1接合材81は、主面101に仮付けされている。
 次いで、図16に示すように、第1接合材81の上に半導体素子20を配置する。この際、半導体素子20の第1電極201が第1接合材81に対向するようにする。第1接合材81が線ハンダである場合、第1電極201は、第1接合材81に仮付けされている。
 次いで、図17および図18に示すように、リフローにより第1接合材81を溶融させた後、冷却により固化させることにより、半導体素子20の第1電極201をダイパッド10の主面101に電気的に接合させる。本工程において、冷却により固化された第1接合材81が第1接合層21となる。
 次いで、図20および図21に示すように、半導体素子20の第2電極202の上に第2接合材82と、第1リード11の第1接合面113の上に第3接合材83とを配置する。第2接合材82および第3接合材83の各々は、第1接合材81と同一の接合材料である。第2接合材82および第3接合材83の各々は、導電性を有する。第2接合材82および第3接合材83の各々がクリームハンダである場合、これらの配置にあたっては、ディスペンサなどを用いる。その後、クリップボンディングにより第2電極202と第1接合面113とに第1導電部材31を電気的に接合させる。当該クリップボンディングにあたっては、第1導電部材31の第1接合部311を第2接合材82の上に配置する。あわせて、第1導電部材31の第2接合部312を第3接合材83の上に配置する。さらにその後、リフローにより第2接合材82および第3接合材83の各々を溶融させた後、冷却によりこれらを固化させることにより、第1接合部311を第2電極202に電気的に接合させる。あわせて、第2接合部312を第1接合面113に電気的に接合させる。以上により、図19に示すように、第2電極202と第1接合面113とに第1導電部材31が電気的に接合される。本工程において、冷却により固化された第2接合材82が第2接合層22となる。あわせて、冷却により固化された第3接合材83が第3接合層23となる。
 次いで、図22に示すように、半導体素子20の第3電極203と、第2リード12の第2接合面123とに第2導電部材32を電気的に接合させる。本工程においては、ワイヤボンディングにより第3電極203と第2接合面123とに第2導電部材32を電気的に接合させる。このため、第2導電部材32は、当該ワイヤボンディングにより形成される。
 次いで、図23に示すように、半導体素子20、第1導電部材31および第2導電部材32と、ダイパッド10、第1リード11、第2リード12および第3リード13の各々の一部ずつとを覆う封止樹脂84を形成する。封止樹脂84は、トランスファモールド成形により形成される。封止樹脂84の形成に伴って、樹脂バリ841が形成される。樹脂バリ841は、第1リード11の露出部112、第2リード12の露出部122、第3リード13の露出部132、およびタイバー80により堰き止められる。その後、樹脂バリ841を高圧水などにより除去する。さらにその後、タイバー80を導電経路とした電解めっきにより、第1リード11の露出部112、第2リード12の露出部122、および第3リード13の露出部132の各々の表面と、ダイパッド10の裏面102とを覆う錫めっきを施す。最後にタイバー80を切断することにより、半導体装置A10が得られる。
 次に、半導体装置A10の作用効果について説明する。
 半導体装置A10は、第1接合層21、第1導電部材31および第2導電部材32を備える。第1接合層21は、導電性を有するとともに、半導体素子20の第1電極201と、ダイパッド10の主面101とを電気的に接合する。第1導電部材31は、半導体素子20の第2電極202に電気的に接合される。第2導電部材32は、半導体素子20の第3電極203に電気的に接合される。厚さ方向zに沿って視て、第3電極203の面積は、第2電極202の面積よりも小である。さらに、第2導電部材32のヤング率は、第1導電部材31のヤング率よりも小である。
 ここで、図17および図18に示す半導体装置A10の製造工程において、第1接合層21となる第1接合材81を溶融させた際、図24に示すように、ダイパッド10に対して半導体素子20の位置がずれることがある。その結果、半導体素子20において、第2電極202および第3電極203の各々の位置が、本来の位置からずれる。この場合において、厚さ方向zに沿って視て、第2電極202の面積は比較的大であるため、第2電極202に対する第1導電部材31の接合状態は良好なままを維持できる。しかし、厚さ方向zに沿って視て、第3電極203の面積は第2電極202の面積よりも小であるため、第2導電部材32が定尺の金属クリップであると、第3電極203に対する第2導電部材32の接合面積が極度に縮小することがある。そこで、図22に示す半導体装置A10の製造工程において、第2導電部材32をワイヤボンディングにより形成する。これにより、位置ずれが生じた第3電極203に照準を定めてワイヤである第2導電部材32が正確に接合されるため、第3電極203に対する第2導電部材32の接合面積の縮小が回避される。したがって、ダイパッド10に対する半導体素子20の位置ずれが生じた場合であっても、第3電極203に対する第2導電部材32の接合状態が良好なものとなる。この状態において、第2導電部材32のヤング率が第1導電部材31のヤング率よりも小であると、第2導電部材32の形成に伴い第3電極203に作用する衝撃力を低減させることができる。以上より、半導体装置A10によれば、より大きな電流に対応しつつ、半導体素子20の複数の電極(第2電極202および第3電極203)の各々に対する導電部材(第1導電部材31および第2導電部材32)の接合状態の改善を図ることが可能となる。
 第1導電部材31は、銅を含有する。これにより、アルミワイヤと比較して、第1導電部材31の電気抵抗を低減させることができる。このことは、半導体素子20により大きな電流を流すことに好適である。
 第2導電部材32の線膨張係数は、第1導電部材31の線膨張係数よりも大である。これに対し、第2導電部材32の熱伝導率は、第1導電部材31の熱伝導率よりも小である。これにより、半導体装置A10の使用の際、半導体素子20から発生した熱は、第3電極203よりも第2電極202に伝導されやすくなる。これにより、第3電極203におけるオン抵抗の上昇を抑えつつ、第3電極203と第2導電部材32との界面における熱応力の低減を図ることができる。
 第1接合層21の厚さt1は、第2接合層22の厚さt2よりも大である。これにより、半導体装置A10の使用時において、半導体素子20から発した熱を、より速やかにダイパッド10に伝導させることができる。さらに、半導体装置A10の製造工程において、第1接合材81を線ハンダとすることにより、厚さが一様に確保された第1接合層21を形成することができる。
 厚さ方向zにおいて、第1リード11の第1接合面113は、ダイパッド10の主面101に対して半導体素子20寄りに位置する。これにより、第1導電部材31の長さが短縮されるため、第1導電部材31におけるインダクタンスの低減を図ることができる。
 厚さ方向zにおいて、第2リード12の第2接合面123は、ダイパッド10の主面101に対して半導体素子20寄りに位置する。これにより、第2導電部材32の長さが短縮されるため、第2導電部材32におけるインダクタンスの低減を図ることができる。このことは、半導体素子20の第3電極203におけるオン抵抗の低減に好適である。
 ダイパッド10は、銅を含有する。さらに、ダイパッド10の厚さTは、第1リード11の最大厚さtmaxよりも大である。これにより、ダイパッド10の熱伝導率の向上を図りつつ、厚さ方向zに対して直交する方向の熱伝導の効率を高めることができる。このことは、ダイパッド10の放熱性の向上に寄与する。
 半導体装置A10は、半導体素子20、第1導電部材31および第2導電部材32と、ダイパッド10の一部とを覆う封止樹脂40を備える。封止樹脂40から、ダイパッド10の裏面102が露出している。これにより、半導体素子20、第1導電部材31および第2導電部材32を外部から保護しつつ、半導体装置A10の放熱性の低下を回避することができる。
 半導体装置A10は、第2接合層22および第3接合層23をさらに備える。第2接合層22は、導電性を有するとともに、第1導電部材31と、半導体素子20の第2電極202とを電気的に接合する。第3接合層23は、導電性を有するとともに、第1導電部材31と、第1リード11の第1接合面113とを電気的に接合する。第2接合層22および第3接合層23の各々は、錫を含有する第1接合層21と同一の材料からなる。これにより、図20および図21に示す半導体装置A10の製造工程において、第2接合層22となる第2接合材82を溶融させた際、第3接合層23となる第3接合材83が同時に溶融される。したがって、半導体装置A10の製造において、第1導電部材31を第2電極202に電気的に接合される際、第1導電部材31を第1接合面113に同時に電気的に接合させることができるため、半導体装置A10の製造効率の向上が図られる。
