Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to semiconductor devices.

- a semiconductor device is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example.

- the semiconductor element is mounted on the leads with the plurality of first electrodes facing the leads.
- Each first electrode has a columnar portion protruding toward the lead.
- the columnar portion is joined to the lead via the joining layer.
- the bonding layer is formed integrally with the columnar portion by electroplating, and is melted and solidified to bond the columnar portion and the lead.
- the thickness of each bonding layer varies depending on how each bonding layer spreads at the time of bonding. For example, if the first bonding layer formed on the small-diameter columnar portion and the second bonding layer formed on the large-diameter columnar portion spread to the same extent during bonding, the second bonding layer having a large volume The thickness of the layer is greater than the thickness of the first bonding layer. If there is a difference in the thickness of the bonding layer, the semiconductor element bonded to the lead may tilt. If the semiconductor element is tilted with respect to the leads, problems such as connection failure may occur.

- the difference between the representative length of the first metal layer and the corresponding representative length of the first joint surface is less than the difference between the representative length of the second metal layer and the corresponding representative length of the second joint surface.
- “Representative length” indicates the length of a representative portion in the shape of each metal layer and each joint surface. For example, it is the diameter in the case of a circular shape, the major or minor axis in the case of an ellipse, and the length of each side or diagonal in the case of a rectangle or polygon.
- the difference in representative length is the difference in representative length of corresponding portions of similar shapes, for example, in the case of an elliptical shape, it is the difference between major axes or the difference between minor axes.
