Problems solved by technology

[0003] To increase the capacity (higher current) of power devices using SiC semiconductors, it is necessary to expand the chip area, but because the pass rate of withstand voltage is greatly reduced, only small-capacity chips are currently being put into practical use.

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, wherein, in a step (S1), a plurality of SiC semiconductor chips are mounted on a mounting substrate, and in a step (S2), a voltage is applied to the SiC semiconductor chips on the mounting substrate. In a step (S3), in the state wherein the voltage is applied, a temperature distribution image of the mounting substrate surface is obtained using thermography and thermal image devices, such as an infrared microscope, and in a step (S5), whether there is a failure chip or not is determined by analyzing the image. In a step (S7), in the case (S5:YES) wherein the failure chip is contained in the mounting substrate, the failure chip is rejected by cutting the wiring of the failure chip. Consequently, the method for manufacturing a semiconductor chip using small-capacity chips is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using a small-capacity chip. Background technique [0002] Silicon carbide (SiC) not only has excellent properties in hardness, heat resistance, and chemical stability, but also has attracted attention as a semiconductor material. In recent years, power devices using SiC semiconductors have been put into practical use. [0003] To increase the capacity (higher current) of power devices using SiC semiconductors, it is necessary to increase the chip area, but because the yield of withstand voltage is greatly reduced, only small-capacity chips are currently in practical use. [0004] A semiconductor device has been proposed in which a plurality of small-capacity chips are connected in parallel in order to realize a large current using the above-mentioned small-capacity chips (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0005] prior art literature [0006] patent documents ...
