Abstract

The lead frame includes outer leads plated with tin (Sn) alloy so as to withstand the high temperatures generated during a subsequent semiconductor packaging process. In addition to the outer leads, the lead frame includes a die pad and inner leads composed of a base metal, such as copper (Cu), a copper alloy, or a nickel alloy. The die pad and the inner leads are plated with silver for improved conductivity. In order to withstand relatively high temperatures as well as to resist corrosion and have good solder wettability, the outer leads are preferably plated with a tin antimony alloy, such as a tin-antimony alloy consisting of 90+ / -5 weight percent of tin and 10+ / -5 weight percent antimony. Alternatively, the outer leads can be plated with a tin-antimony-lead alloy, such as a tin-antimony-lead alloy consisting of 10+ / -5 weight percent of tin, 10+ / -5 weight percent of antimony and 80+ / -10 weight percent of lead. A method of plating a lead frame is also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a lead frame and a method of coating a lead frame, and more particularly to a lead frame and at least partial coating of the lead frame with a tin (Sn) alloy to make it easy to withstand the occurrence of subsequent semiconductor packaging processes. high temperature method. Background technique [0002] During the manufacture of integrated circuit devices (also known as semiconductor chips), packages are formed that seal the integrated circuits. The packages are usually made of a plastic material such as epoxy, although ceramic packages can also be used. To establish the connection of each input / output terminal of the encapsulated chip, a lead frame is also formed and at least partially encapsulated within the package. By wire-bonding each input / output terminal of the semiconductor chip to the lead frame prior to encapsulation, each input / output terminal of the semiconductor chip can be connected to each in...
