Description
に関する。
また、電力変換装置の製造方法として、半導体素子と接続する伝熱板を樹脂によってモールドすることで半導体モジュールを形成し、形成した前記半導体モジュールの一方の面のモールド樹脂の一部を除去することで、前記伝熱板の面を露出し、かつ前記伝熱板の面を囲うように形成する段差部を形成し、前記伝熱板の露出面に接触し、かつ前記一方の面の前記モールド樹脂を覆うように配置した半固体状の熱伝導材と、前記熱伝導材を介して前記半導体モジュールを放熱する放熱部材と、を前記半導体モジュールに組み付ける方法を採用する。
(図1)
電力変換装置100において、電力変換回路を構成する複数の回路体1は、それぞれIGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor)やMOSFET(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor)などの半導体素子によって構成される。直列接続された2つの回路体1と1つのキャパシタ2が対になることでそれぞれ1相分の電力変換回路になっている。3相の電力変換回路は、それぞれ正極配線3および負極配線4と接続されている。
電力変換装置100は、複数のパワー半導体素子をそれぞれ有する複数の回路体1と、回路体1に電気的に接続され、厚さ方向に複数の正極配線3および負極配線4がそれぞれ互いに積層されて設けられている配線基板6(以下基板6)と、複数の回路体1にそれぞれ対応して設けられる複数の平滑キャパシタ2と、を備えている。正極配線3および負極配線4は、基板6の厚さ方向(図2の紙面手前-奥方向)に互いに積層され、かつ各相のキャパシタ2と回路体1を接続する(詳細は図4~図7で後述)。
図3は回路体1(以下半導体モジュール1)の構成を示す断面図である。半導体モジュール1は、半導体素子23、伝熱板20(リードフレーム20)を備えている。半導体素子23および伝熱板20は、樹脂24(レジン)によってモールドされている。半導体素子23は、そのチップ両面においてはんだを介して伝熱板20と接続している。なお、半導体素子23と伝熱板20との接続は、はんだに限定されず、焼結材、金属と樹脂のハイブリッド材などを使用してもよい。半導体素子23のチップ上面のゲートパッド(図示せず)とリード端子12は、ワイヤボンディング13で接続される。
(図4)
図4(a)は第1の製造方法の一例を示す図、図4(b)は図4(a)の金型に樹脂モールド流入して硬化させた後の図である。第1伝熱板20aには半導体素子23がはんだ付けで接続されており、半導体素子23とリード端子12はワイヤボンディング13が施されている。さらに、金型28の枠と第1伝熱板20aとの間に、第1伝熱板20aに接触するように半固体状の第1熱伝導材21aが配置されている。上記のように、伝熱板20a,20b、半導体素子23、第1熱伝導材21aを、金型28内にセットしたら、樹脂24によってトランスファーモールドを実施する。これにより、一方の面において段差部24aを備え、かつ第1伝熱板20aの面が露出した半導体モジュール1が形成できる。
(図5)
図5(a)~図5(c)は、第2の製造方法を説明する図である。まず図5(a)で、第1伝熱板20a,第2伝熱板20bとそれぞれ接続した半導体素子23、リード端子12を金型28に実装する。このとき、伝熱板20aと金型28との間には、はんだ厚さのばらつきや第1伝熱板20aの傾き等が原因で、隙間28aが生じている。
半導体モジュール1の樹脂24において、段差部24aと第1熱伝導材21aとの関係には以下の関係が成り立つ。リード端子12がある方向の段差部24aの幅を図6の左から幅a1,a2、リード端子12がない方向の段差部24aの幅を図6の上から幅b1,b2とする。この時、a1>b1、または、a1>b2である。また、a2>b1,または、a2>b2である。これにより、従来では、第2熱伝導材21bは、ポンプアウトした熱伝導材21の一部がリード端子12間に落ちたりすることで絶縁性の低下が生じる課題が発生していたが、本発明により熱伝導材21がポンプアウトしづらくなり、かつ冷却水路26の抵抗が大きくなる。また、熱伝導材21bがポンプアウトして下に落ちるとしても、リード端子12がない方に優先的に落ちることになるため、絶縁性は低下しない。
半導体モジュール1の上面で接触する第2熱伝導材21bについて、半導体モジュール1の段差部24aから飛び出た第2熱伝導材21bの長さについて、次の関係が成り立つ。リード端子12がある方向に段差部24aより第2熱伝導材21bが飛び出た距離を、図7の左からc1,c2、リード端子12がない方向に段差部24aより第2熱伝導材21bが飛び出た距離を、図7の上からd1,d2とする。このとき、0<c1<d1、または、0<c1<d2である。また、0<c2<d1、または、0<c2<d2である。これにより、第2熱伝導材21bがポンプアウトして下に落ちるとしても、リード端子12がない方に優先的に落ちることになるため、リード端子12の絶縁性は低下しない。
