Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chip packaging, and particularly to an IGBT chip heat dissipation packaging module and a packaging method. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) have been widely used in high-power and high-frequency industrial applications, such as electric vehicles, renewable energy power generation systems, industrial motor drives, and power transmission and distribution systems. These application scenarios pose stringent requirements of high current, high voltage, and high-speed switching on IGBT chips, resulting in a large amount of heat generated during chip operation. If heat cannot be dissipated in a timely and effective manner, the performance and reliability of the chip will be severely affected, potentially leading to a decrease in efficiency, unstable operation, and even thermal failure. Therefore, improving the heat dissipation ability of IGBT chips to ensure their stable operation under high power density and high frequency conditions has become the focus of attention in the industry.
[0003] In existing chip heat dissipation integration technologies, heat sinks are usually pasted on the back of the chip, high thermal conductivity interface materials are used, or the chip is packaged on a substrate with heat dissipation functions to assist in heat conduction and dissipation. However, these traditional heat dissipation methods have certain limitations. For example, the heat conduction efficiency of heat sinks and thermal interface materials is limited and cannot meet the rapid heat dissipation requirements of high-power IGBT chips; packaging the chip on a heat dissipation substrate, although improving the heat dissipation ability to a certain extent, has a large thermal resistance due to the need for heat to pass through multiple interfaces, resulting in poor heat dissipation effects. In addition, it is difficult to achieve a refined heat dissipation channel layout inside the chip in existing integration technologies, and it is impossible to effectively control the heat density in different regions of the chip. These drawbacks lead to heat accumulation inside the chip, forming hot spot areas, seriously affecting the working stability and lifespan of IGBT chips, and restricting their development in higher power and higher frequency applications.
[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to improve the chip heat dissipation integration technology in the prior art to solve the problem that it cannot meet the high heat dissipation performance requirements of the chip. Summary of the Invention

[0023] Embodiment 1: Combined with Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a packaging method for an IGBT chip heat dissipation packaging module, including: S1, cleaning and preprocessing the back surface of the IGBT chip, and etching a pre-designed microchannel network on the back surface of the IGBT chip substrate by using an etching technique; Thoroughly cleaning and preprocessing the back surface of the IGBT chip is crucial. The cleaning process can remove organic contaminants, particulate matter, and oxide layers existing on the back surface, ensuring the effectiveness of subsequent processes. Subsequently, a pre-designed microchannel network structure is etched on the back surface of the chip substrate by using a precise etching technique (such as deep reactive ion etching DRIE). These microchannel networks will be used to enhance the heat dissipation capacity of the chip, enabling the chip to dissipate heat quickly and effectively during high-power operation, and improving the performance and reliability of the chip.
[0024] S2, using chemical vapor deposition to deposit a graphene film on the inner wall of the microchannel network to form a heat conduction channel; Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is used to deposit high-quality graphene films on the inner wall of the microchannel network. Graphene has extremely high thermal conductivity and can significantly improve the thermal conductivity in the microchannel. By depositing graphene films on the inner wall of the microchannel, an efficient heat conduction channel is formed, so that the heat generated by the chip can be quickly transferred to the cooling medium. This process requires precise control of CVD process parameters such as temperature, gas flow rate and deposition time to ensure the uniformity and thermal conductivity of the graphene film. At the same time, the deposition of the graphene film needs to be highly matched with the microchannel structure to ensure the continuity and effectiveness of the heat conduction channel.

The microfluidic dispenser needs to have an inlet and outlet for the coolant, as well as an internal microchannel structure to guide the coolant to circulate in the microchannel network. Use computer design software to draw a three-dimensional model of the microfluidic dispenser to ensure that it accurately corresponds to the size and position of the chip microchannel. Then, the microfluidic dispenser is made using precision machining technology. In a clean environment, use a high-precision alignment device to accurately align the microfluidic dispenser with the microchannel network on the back of the chip. Use reliable bonding technology (such as anodic bonding or bonding) to firmly connect the two together to form a closed coolant circulation channel. The successful implementation of this step ensures that the coolant can effectively enter the microchannel network and take away the heat generated when the chip is working.

Then, the chip is accurately mounted on the circuit substrate, and the conductive adhesive material is cured through processes such as hot pressing and curing to form a stable connection. Subsequently, laser cladding technology is used to interconnect the electrodes of the IGBT chip with the circuits on the circuit substrate. Laser cladding technology has the characteristics of high precision and low heat-affected zone, and can form low-resistance and high-reliability electrical connections.
