Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of semiconductor integrated circuit package testing, and relates to a plastic package device external lead packaging structure and a re-plating method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The plastic package device external lead re-plating is usually applied to the situations of external lead plating layer contamination, damage, oxidation, falling off and abnormal solderability, so as to solve the problems of the appearance and solderability of the external lead plating layer, and belongs to a rework processing behavior. Since the plastic package device external lead re-plating is a rework processing on finished products, it is different from the plating rework processing of the matrix frame circuit in the packaging process, and needs to re-plate each external lead of each finished product. How to realize the conductive interconnection between the external leads and the efficient and high-quality re-plating is a difficulty in the plastic package device external lead re-plating processing.
[0003] At present, the main re-plating method in the industry is a drum re-plating method, and the specific technology is as follows: (1) the plastic package device needing re-plating is subjected to external lead defective plating layer stripping treatment, that is, the original metal plating layer is corroded away by using an acidic solution to immerse, so that the copper substrate of the plastic package device external lead is exposed; (2) the plastic package device after stripping is subjected to external lead deoxidation, activation and other pretreatments; (3) the re-plating is carried out by using a drum plating process, that is, a plurality of pretreated plastic package devices are placed in a drum plating equipment with plating solution, the drum rolls and falls at a certain speed, the external leads of the plastic package devices are connected with the cathode conductive device in the drum, the connection realizes instantaneous plating, and the cumulative multiple instantaneous plating achieves the set plating thickness; (4) the plastic package device is taken out, neutralized, washed with water and dried to complete the re-plating processing.
[0004] The drum re-plating method has certain limitations, mainly as follows: (1) during the drum rotation, the plastic package devices constantly roll and fall, which inevitably causes the mutual friction between the plastic package devices and other plastic package devices, and between the plastic package devices and the drum, resulting in the surface scratch and scratch problems of the plastic package devices; (2) for DIP (dual in-line package), SOP (small outline package), SSOP (shrink small outline package) and TSSOP (thin shrink small outline package) type plastic package devices, since the external lead thickness is thin, the pitch is small and the interval is narrow, the external lead loss and deformation are easily caused during the rolling and falling, resulting in the damage and scrap of the plastic package devices. For the plastic package devices with high quality and high yield re-plating requirements, the existing drum re-plating method is not applicable. SUMMARY

[0036] It should be noted that: similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.
[0037] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that if the terms "upper", "lower", "horizontal", "inner" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship when the product of the present application is used, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and therefore cannot be understood as indicating or implying that the indicated device or element must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present application. In addition, the terms "first", "second" and the like are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0038] In addition, if the term "horizontal" appears, it does not mean that the component must be absolutely horizontal, but can be slightly inclined. For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is relatively more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly inclined.
[0039] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it also needs to be explained that, unless explicitly specified and limited, if the terms "arrange", "install", "connect", "connect" appear, they should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; it can be the communication inside two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0040] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0041] Referring to Figure 1 The present application discloses a plastic package device external lead packaging structure, comprising: a plastic package device 1, a substrate 2, a metal wire 3 and a lead frame 8.
[0042] The substrate 2 is provided with the plastic package device 1; the substrate 2 is fixed on the lead frame 8; the plastic package device 1 comprises external leads 9; the external leads 9 are a plurality of leads, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the plastic package device 1; the external leads 9 are in conductive interconnection with the lead frame 8.
[0043] The plastic package device 1 is fixed on the substrate 2 by winding the metal wire 3; the metal wire 3 fixes the substrate 2 on the lead frame 8, realizing the conductive interconnection of the external leads 9 of the plastic package device with the lead frame 8.
[0044] The plastic package device 1 is fixed on the substrate 2 by winding the metal wire 3, specifically: the plastic package device 1 is attached to one side of the substrate 2, the metal wire 3 is wound from the external lead 9 on one side of the plastic package device 1 to the other side of the substrate 2, and then is wound back to the bottom of the external lead 9 on the other side of the plastic package device 1, and the binding and winding of the bottom of all the external leads 9 are completed in turn, forming an "S" shaped winding path on one side of the substrate 2; the plastic package device 1 is fixedly bound on the substrate 2, and the external leads 9 are in conductive interconnection with each other.
[0045] The diameter of the metal wire 3 is not more than 25% of the width of the surface of the external lead. When the metal wire 3 is wound around the external lead 9, it will generate a pressing force on the corners of the external lead 9, and the size of the pressing force is proportional to the diameter (Φ) of the metal wire 3. Therefore, the area (S) of the indentation is proportional to the diameter (Φ) of the metal wire 3 (S∝Φ). The external lead 9 covered by the indentation 7 area is difficult to form a plating layer in the subsequent plating process, and appears as a depression on the surface of the lead. According to the "3.3.5 lead" clause in the standard method 2009.1 of GJB548B-2005, "the diameter of the indentation or the width of the depression on the lead (the diameter is calculated for circular leads) is more than 25% of the width of the lead", which is unqualified. The maximum value of the width of the indentation 7 is not more than the diameter of the metal wire 3. Therefore, the diameter of the metal wire 3 is not more than 25% of the width of the surface of the external lead 9.

[0055] The method of back-bonding the molding device 1 on the substrate 2 is to place the back of the molding device outward, with the front 5 of the molding device against the substrate 2, and then use a metal wire 3 to wrap from the bottom 4 of the outer lead of the molding device 1 to the other side of the substrate 2.
