DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 10 Describe the method for preparing the intelligent power module 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention

[0043] like Figure 2-Figure 10As shown, the intelligent power module 100 includes a substrate 10 and a frame 20, wherein the frame 20 is located in the thickness direction of the substrate 10 (eg, Figure 8 The frame 20 is provided with a conductive member 50 on one side (in the left-right direction), and the conductive member 50 extends in the direction toward the substrate 10. The conductive member 50 is located on the side of the frame 20 adjacent to the substrate 10, and is used to achieve the connection between the frame 20 and the power chip 30 on the substrate 10.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for preparing the intelligent power module 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0045] S1 . Fix the power chip 30 on the substrate 10 .

[0046] S2, silver paste is applied to the first electrode 301 and the second electrode 302 of the power chip 30, and the substrate 10, and the conductive member 50 of the frame 20 is pre-fixed with the first electrode 301, the second electrode 302 and the substrate 10 respectively, and then silver is sintered. In this step, the power chip 30 can be electrically connected to the frame 20 through the conductive member 50, and the frame 20 can be electrically connected to the substrate 10 through the conductive member 50. Since the conductive member 50 is located between the frame 20 and the substrate 10, the conductive member 50 can play a supporting role while being used for conducting electricity, supporting the frame 20 above the substrate 10, and the connection method is simple, which improves the packaging efficiency of the intelligent power module 100.

[0047] S3, fix the driver chip 40 on the frame 20. In this step, the frame 20 is clamped on the tooling to keep the frame 20 in a horizontal and stable state, and then the driver chip 40 is fixed on the frame 20 to implement the step of core loading on the frame 20. Since the tooling is located between the frame 20 and the substrate 10, in order to avoid the tooling interfering with the substrate 10 and damaging the substrate 10, the substrate 10 can be designed as a small-sized substrate 10 at this time, so that the substrate 10 is separated from the tooling during the core loading process of the frame 20. This is conducive to the miniaturization design of the intelligent power module 100.

[0048] S4, injection molding the power module 110 to obtain the intelligent power module 100. Thus, the substrate 10, the power chip 30, the driver chip 40 and part of the frame 20 are located in the plastic package shell 60, which can effectively separate the chip and the substrate 10 from the outside world and prevent the external environment from impacting the chip and the substrate 10. Optionally, the plastic package shell 60 can be made of epoxy resin material, but is not limited thereto.

[0049] Optionally, the substrate 10 can be a ceramic copper-clad board, which includes a first copper layer (circuit layer) 102, a ceramic layer 103 (insulating layer) and a second copper layer 104 arranged along the thickness direction. The power chip 30 is connected to the first copper layer 102, and the surface of the second copper layer 104 on the side away from the power chip 30 is flush with the bottom surface of the plastic shell 60 and exposed outside the plastic shell 60. When the power chip 30 generates heat during operation, the heat can be transferred to the second copper layer 104 through the first copper layer 102 and the ceramic layer 103, and the second copper layer 104 performs heat exchange with the outside world to achieve heat dissipation of the intelligent power module 100.

[0050] According to the preparation method of the intelligent power module 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, through steps S1-S4, compared with the traditional preparation method of the intelligent power module, the aluminum wire welding process can be saved, and the occurrence of craters, non-stick bonding, failure and the like can be prevented. The conductive member 50 is connected to the power chip 30 or the substrate 10 through silver paste, and the connection method is simple, which can greatly improve the packaging efficiency of the intelligent power module 100. At the same time, the substrate can be designed as a small-size substrate, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the intelligent power module.

[0051] According to some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, step S1 specifically includes the following steps:

[0052] S11, dividing the circuit layer of the substrate 10 into a plurality of spaced functional areas 101. For example, the first copper layer 102 of the substrate 10 is divided into four functional areas 101, the four functional areas 101 are spaced apart along the length direction of the substrate 10, and the four functional areas 101 are sequentially a first area, a second area, a third area, and a fourth area along the length direction of the substrate 10, a power chip 30 is provided in each of the first area, the second area, and the third area, and three power chips 30 are provided in the fourth area, and the three power chips 30 are spaced apart along the length direction of the substrate 10.

[0053] S12, applying silver paste on the functional area 101, and pre-fixing the power chip 30 on the functional area 101 by the silver paste;

[0054] S13 , sintering the substrate 10 and the power chip 30 .

[0055] Therefore, through the above steps S11-S13, multiple power chips 30 can be fixed in multiple functional areas 101 respectively, ensuring the connection reliability between the substrate 10 and the power chip 30, and at the same time reducing the thermal resistance of the power chip 30, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the intelligent power module 100 and avoiding the intelligent power module 100 from overheating after long-term use.

[0056] According to some specific embodiments of the present invention, step S2 specifically includes the following steps:

[0057] S31, brushing silver paste on the frame 20, and pre-fixing the driving chip 40 on the frame 20 by the silver paste;

[0058] A32, sintering the frame 20 and the driving chip 40;

[0059] A33, welding wire, the driving chip 40 is connected to the control pin 202 of the frame 20 through the conductive wire.

[0060] Therefore, through the above steps S31-S33, multiple driver chips 40 can be fixed on multiple base islands 201 of the frame 20 respectively, ensuring the connection reliability between the base islands 201 and the driver chips 40, and at the same time enabling the driver chips 40 to be electrically connected to the corresponding control pins 202, which can reduce the thermal resistance of the driver chips 40, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the intelligent power module 100 and avoiding the intelligent power module 100 from overheating after long-term use.

[0061] The driving chip 40 can be bonded to the corresponding control pin 202 via a thin aluminum wire.

[0062] Optionally, the conductive member 50 can be connected to the frame 20 by ultrasonic welding, solder paste welding or silver paste. The conductive member 50 and the frame 20 are connected as a whole, which is conducive to the subsequent connection of the conductive member 50 and the power chip 30.

[0063] Optionally, the frame 20 and the conductive member 50 may be made of copper material, but the invention is not limited thereto.

[0064] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 6 As shown, the frame 20 includes a base island 201, a control pin 202 and a power pin 203, the driving chip 40 is fixed on the base island 201, and the conductive member 50 includes a first conductive member 501 and a second conductive member 502, the first conductive member 501 is arranged on the control pin 202, and the second conductive member 502 is arranged on the power pin 203.

[0065] For example, in Figure 2-Figure 6 In the example of FIG. 1 , the width direction of the substrate 10 (eg, Figure 6 The two sides of the substrate 10 (in the up and down direction) are respectively the control side and the power side, the control pin 202 is arranged on the control side of the substrate 10, and the power pin 203 is arranged on the power side of the substrate 10. There are seven base islands 201, and the seven base islands 201 are arranged along the length direction of the substrate 10 (for example, Figure 6The driver chip 40 includes a low-voltage driver chip 401, three high-voltage driver chips 402, and three bootstrap diodes 404. The low-voltage driver chip 401 is disposed on the outermost base island 201 among the seven base islands 201, and the low-voltage driver chip 401 can be connected to the control pin 202 through a gold wire or a copper wire. The high-voltage driver chip 402 and the bootstrap diode 404 are connected to the control pin 202 through a gold wire or a copper wire, and the three high-voltage driver chips 402 and the three bootstrap diodes 404 are respectively disposed on the remaining six base islands 201. Of course, the control pin 202 and the low-voltage driver chip 401, the high-voltage driver chip 402, and the bootstrap diode 404 can also be connected through other materials with low resistivity.

[0066] There are multiple first conductive members 501 and second conductive members 502. In the description of the present invention, "multiple" means two or more. The first conductive member 501 is arranged on one side of the thickness direction of the control pin 202 connected to the power chip 30. The second conductive member 502 is arranged on one side of the thickness direction of the power pin 203.

[0067] In step S2, the first conductive member 501 is pre-fixed with the second electrode 302 by silver paste, and the second conductive member 502 is pre-fixed with the first electrode 301 by silver paste. Thus, the relative positions of the control pin 202 and the power pin 203 and the power chip 30 are first determined, which is conducive to the subsequent reliable connection of the control pin 202 and the power pin 203 and the power chip 30 by sintering, and the steps are simple and easy to operate.

[0068] Among them, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 Each control pin 202 includes a first pin segment 2021 and a second pin segment 2022 connected to each other, the second pin segment 2022 is perpendicular to the first pin segment 2021 and is located on a side of the first pin segment 2021 away from the substrate 10, the first pin segment 2021 is located inside the plastic package housing 60, and the second pin segment 2022 is located outside the plastic package housing 60. Similarly, each power pin 203 includes a third pin segment 2031 and a fourth pin segment 2032 connected to each other, the fourth pin segment 2032 is perpendicular to the third pin segment 2031 and is located on a side of the third pin segment 2031 away from the substrate 10, the third pin segment 2031 is located inside the plastic package housing 60, and the fourth pin segment 2032 is located outside the plastic package housing 60.

[0069] In the thickness direction of the substrate 10, the surface of the first pin segment 2021 away from the substrate 10, the surface of the third pin segment 2031 away from the substrate 10, and the surface of the base island 201 away from the substrate 10 are flush. Therefore, the size of the substrate 10 is not limited to between the control pin 202 and the power pin 203. Both sides of the width direction of the substrate 10 in the present application can be extended to the edge of the plastic package housing 60, which increases the size of the substrate 10 and can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the intelligent power module 100.

[0070] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first conductive member 501 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second electrode 302. This arrangement ensures that the first conductive member 501 can be connected to the second electrode 302 while preventing the first conductive member 501 from being connected to other positions of the power chip 30 through the silver paste, thereby preventing a short circuit.

[0071] Similarly, the cross-sectional area of ​​the second conductive member 502 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first electrode 301. This arrangement ensures that the second conductive member 502 can be connected to the first electrode 301 while preventing the second conductive member 502 from being connected to other positions of the power chip 30 through the silver paste, thereby preventing a short circuit.

[0072] Further, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first conductive member 501 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second conductive member 502. Since the size of the second electrode 302 on the power chip 30 is smaller than the size of the first electrode 301, by making the cross-sectional area of ​​the first conductive member 501 smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second conductive member 502, the size of the first conductive member 501 can be adapted to the size of the second electrode 302, the size of the second conductive member 502 can be adapted to the size of the first electrode 301, and the spacing between the first electrode 301 and the second electrode 302 is small, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the first conductive member 501 is smaller, which can avoid the first conductive member 501 from being connected to the first electrode 301.

[0073] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Fig.10As shown, the power chip 30 is a RC-IGBT (reverse-conducting insulated gate bipolar transistor) chip, the RC-IGBT chip has an emitter and a gate, the emitter is a first electrode 301, the gate is a second electrode 302, the first conductive member 501 is pre-fixed with the gate through silver paste, and the second conductive member 502 is pre-fixed with the emitter through silver paste. Alternatively, the power chip 30 is a MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor insulated gate bipolar transistor) chip (not shown), the MOSFET chip has a source and a gate, the source is the first electrode 301, the gate is the second electrode 302, the first conductive member 501 is pre-fixed with the gate through silver paste, and the second conductive member 502 is pre-fixed with the source through silver paste.

[0074] Alternatively, the second conductive member 502 includes a first sub-conductive member 5021 and a second sub-conductive member 5022, the power chip 30 includes an IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) chip 303 and an FRD (fast recovery diode) chip 304, the first conductive member 501 is pre-fixed with the gate of the IGBT chip 303 through silver paste, the first sub-conductive member 5021 is pre-fixed with the emitter of the IGBT chip 303 through silver paste, and the second sub-conductive member 5022 is pre-fixed with the anode of the FRD chip 304 through silver paste. Figure 6 As shown, the IGBT chip 303 and the FRD chip 304 are spaced apart along the width direction of the substrate 10, the IGBT chip 303 is arranged adjacent to the control pin 202, and the FRD chip 304 is arranged adjacent to the power pin 203, and the first sub-conductive member 5021 and the second sub-conductive member 5022 on the power pin 30 are also spaced apart along the width direction of the substrate 10, the first sub-conductive member 5021 is electrically connected to the emitter of the IGBT chip 303, and the second sub-conductive member 5022 is electrically connected to the anode of the FRD chip 304, so as to realize the electrical connection between the IGBT chip 303 and the FRD chip 304.

[0075] In this way, the type of the power chip 30 can be selected according to the usage scenario of the intelligent power module 100 , the structure of the intelligent power module 100 is more diverse, and the applicable scenarios of the intelligent power module 100 are more.

[0076] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as 6, Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the side adjacent to the control pin 202 in the width direction of the substrate 10 is the control side 102, and the control side 102 is spaced apart from the pad of the driver chip 40 on the projection plane in the thickness direction of the substrate 10. That is, in the width direction of the frame 20, the control side 102 is located between the pad of the driver chip 40 and the first conductive member 501. Thus, while the first conductive member 501 is electrically connected to the power chip 30, interference between the tooling and the substrate 10 can be avoided when the frame 20 is mounted on the core.

[0077] In some optional embodiments, the conductive member 50 further includes a third conductive member 503, and the third conductive member 503 is disposed on the power pin 203. In step S2, the third conductive member 503 is pre-fixed to the substrate 10 by silver paste.

[0078] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 There are four third conductive members 503, and the four third conductive members 503 are respectively arranged on the four power pins 203, and the four third conductive members 503 are all arranged adjacent to the edge of the substrate 10. The above-mentioned power pin 203 can be connected to the substrate 10 through the third conductive member 503. At the same time, the third conductive member 503 can cooperate with the second conductive member 502 to effectively support the power pin 203 and prevent the power pin 203 from bending.

[0079] Electrical connection Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, according to the intelligent power module 100 according to the second aspect of the embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent power module 100 is prepared by the preparation method of the intelligent power module 100 according to the first aspect of the embodiment of the present invention.

[0080] According to the intelligent power module 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent power module 100 is manufactured by adopting the above manufacturing method, which can improve the flow capacity and heat dissipation effect of the intelligent power module 100 and reduce the energy consumption of the intelligent power module 100.
