Embodiment approach 1

[0029] figure 1 It is a plan view showing the semiconductor package according to the first embodiment. figure 2 is along figure 1 Sectional view of the I-II section. image 3 is along figure 1 Sectional view of the III-IV cut. Devices 2 , wirings 3 , and pads 4 are formed on the main surface of a semiconductor substrate 1 made of, for example, Si. The device 2 includes, for example, sensors such as imaging elements, circuits, and the like. Pad 4 is connected to device 2 via wiring 3 . A passivation film 5 such as SiN is formed on the semiconductor substrate 1 so as to cover the device 2 , the wiring 3 , and the pad 4 . An opening is formed in the passivation film 5 on the pad 4 to expose the central portion of the upper surface of the pad 4 . The passivation film 5 on the device 2 can also be processed locally or globally. For example, when the device 2 includes an imaging element, localized processing may be performed to realize an inner lens, or a thin film may be p...

Embodiment approach 2

[0038] Figure 4 It is a sectional view showing the semiconductor package according to the second embodiment. In this embodiment, the dummy wiring 11 is formed on the same layer as the wiring 3 on the semiconductor substrate 1 , and both have the same thickness and material. In this case, since the dummy wiring 11 and the wiring 3 can be formed at the same time, it is not necessary to add an additional manufacturing process for the formation of the dummy wiring 11 . In addition, the thickness of the passivation film 5 is generally set to 0.5 μm to several μm, which is very thinner than the thickness of the sealing metal layer 7 . Therefore, even with the configuration of the present embodiment, the stress transmission suppression effect of the first embodiment can be obtained. Other configurations and effects are the same as those in Embodiment 1.

Embodiment approach 3

[0040] Figure 5 It is a plan view showing the semiconductor package according to the third embodiment. Figure 6 is along Figure 5 Sectional view of the V-VI section. The stress increases not only in the outer portion of the corner portion 10 of the sealing metal layer 7 but also in the inner portion. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the dummy wiring 11 is also formed between the inner portion of the corner portion 10 of the sealing metal layer 7 and the semiconductor substrate 1 . Since the transfer of stress from the sealing metal layer 7 to the semiconductor substrate 1 can be further suppressed by the dummy wiring 11, the heat cycle resistance can be further improved. Other configurations and effects are the same as those in Embodiment 1.

Abstract

A device (2) is formed on the main surface of a semiconductor substrate (1). The passivation film (5) covers the main surface. A metal pattern (6) is formed on the passivation film (5) so as to surround the device (2). A sealing metal layer (7) having a corner section (10) in plan view is formed on the metal pattern (6). The cap (8) is bonded to the metal pattern (6) via the sealing metal layer (7), and the device (2) is vacuum-sealed. A dummy wiring (11), which is softer than the metal pattern (6) and is not electrically connected to the device (2), is formed at least between the semiconductor substrate (1) and an outer portion of a corner portion of the sealing metal layer (7).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to semiconductor packaging. Background technique [0002] A semiconductor package has been proposed in which a lid is bonded to a semiconductor substrate via a sealing metal layer to hermetically seal a device formed on the semiconductor substrate (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2010-261806 [0004] The material of the semiconductor substrate is Si, etc., and its physical properties such as coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus are different from the material of the sealing metal layer. Therefore, there is a problem that the heat cycle resistance is lowered due to cracking of the semiconductor substrate due to stress. Contents of the invention [0005] The present invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to obtain a semiconductor package capable of improving heat cycle resistance...
