Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tantalum capacitors, and in particular relates to an integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure. Background Art
[0002] Tantalum capacitors, as a type of electrolytic capacitors, are widely used in various electronic products, especially some products with high-density assembly and small internal space, such as mobile phones, portable printers, etc. SMD tantalum capacitors use metal tantalum (Ta) as the anode material, and can be divided into foil type and tantalum sintered powder type according to the different anode structures. Among the tantalum powder sintered tantalum capacitors, they can be divided into solid electrolyte tantalum capacitors and non-solid electrolyte tantalum capacitors due to different working electrolytes. Among them, solid tantalum electrolytic capacitors are the most used. Since tantalum capacitors use metal tantalum as the dielectric, they do not need to use electrolyte like ordinary electrolytic capacitors. In addition, SMD tantalum capacitors do not need to be fired with aluminum-coated capacitor paper like ordinary electrolytic capacitors, so they have almost no inductance, but this also limits its capacity.
[0003] The basic internal components of traditional tantalum capacitors are tantalum metal, tantalum pentoxide, manganese dioxide or polymer, graphite silver paste layer, silver paste bonding layer, lead layer and others. The internal structure of tantalum metal is the anode layer, which is formed by pressing and sintering metal powder. The internal structure of tantalum pentoxide is mainly the dielectric layer, which is formed by chemical treatment on the surface of the anode metal. The internal structure of manganese dioxide or polymer is the cathode layer, which is formed by thermal decomposition of manganese nitrate or polymerization of organic matter. The internal structure of graphite silver paste layer and silver paste bonding layer is the auxiliary cathode layer, which is formed by impregnation and drying of graphite and silver paste respectively. The internal structure of the silver paste bonding layer is to connect the core block and the lead metal, where the silver paste layer corresponds to the molded plastic encapsulation product, or the tin-wrapped layer corresponds to the resin encapsulation product, or the molten tin layer corresponds to the metal encapsulation product. The lead layer and others are mainly lead metal structures such as lead frames, CP wires, etc.
[0004] From the above structure, we can see that there are many limitations in the traditional tantalum capacitor structure. Our company intends to optimize the traditional structure in combination with the characteristics of the circuit board. From the analysis of the traditional structure, we can see that the capacitor of the traditional structure occupies a large space, and the factors that make miniaturization difficult are mainly:
[0005] 1. The molded epoxy resin shell has no support and is too thick, which affects the miniaturization of the product;
[0006] 2. The lead frame design structure is complex, and the middle extension design affects the space utilization in the left and right directions. Utility Model Content

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure, including a bearing copper platform, which is an integrally formed stepped structure, the top of the bearing copper platform is coated with a nickel-gold layer, the bottom of the bearing copper platform is coated with an OSP organic solder film, and the interior of the bearing copper platform is filled with epoxy glass fiber board and resin.
[0009] As a further solution of the utility model, an anode connection surface is provided on the upper part of one side of the higher step on the supporting copper platform, and the surface mount device on the anode connection surface is connected to the tantalum wire;
[0010] A cathode connection surface is arranged at the lower part of one side of a higher step on the supporting copper platform, and a surface mount device on the cathode connection surface is connected with the tantalum block.
[0011] As a further solution of the utility model, a through hole is formed on the epoxy glass fiber board, and the anode pin on the anode connection surface passes through the through hole and is led out from the groove at the bottom of the supporting copper platform together with the cathode pin on the cathode connection surface.
[0012] As a further solution of the utility model, a non-functional pad is provided at the bottom of the bearing copper platform, and a glass fiber reinforced plastic sleeve is provided on the fixed sleeve of the non-functional pad.
[0013] As a further solution of the utility model, the outer surface of the glass fiber reinforced plastic sleeve is coated with a solder resist layer.
[0014] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the thickness of the OSP organic solder film is 0.2-0.5um.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. The utility model adopts an integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure and uses pure metal copper as a loop conduction to replace the iron-nickel alloy conduction method. The integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure effectively reduces the number of components of the traditional tantalum capacitor assembly, and removes the traditional lead frame conduction with metallized holes, which not only effectively reduces the product appearance and improves the integration, but also effectively reduces the ESR of the finished product and avoids the leakage problem.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

Therefore, they should not be understood as limitations on the embodiments of the present invention.
[0025] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly stipulated and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, an integral connection, or a detachable connection; it can be the internal connection of two components; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium.

[0026] See also Figure 1-Figure 2The utility model embodiment provides an integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure, including a bearing copper platform 1, which is an integrally formed stepped structure, the top of the bearing copper platform 1 is coated with a nickel-gold layer 2, the bottom of the bearing copper platform 1 is coated with an OSP organic solder film 3, and the interior of the bearing copper platform 1 is filled with an epoxy glass fiber board 5 and a resin 6.
[0027] Through the above technical solution, pure metal copper is used as the circuit conduction to replace the iron-nickel alloy conduction method. The integrated tantalum capacitor bearing structure effectively reduces the number of traditional tantalum capacitor assembly components, and the traditional lead frame conduction is removed by metallized holes. It not only effectively reduces the product appearance and improves the integration, but also effectively reduces the ESR of the finished product to avoid leakage problems.
[0028] On the basis of the above technical solution, an anode connection surface 11 is provided on the upper part of the higher step of the supporting copper platform 1, and the surface mount device on the anode connection surface 11 is connected to the tantalum wire; a cathode connection surface 12 is provided on the lower part of the higher step of the supporting copper platform 1, and the surface mount device on the cathode connection surface 12 is connected to the tantalum block.
[0029] Through the above technical solution, the connection part between the traditional lead frame anode and the tantalum wire is replaced by a higher TOP surface surface mount device design, and the connection part between the cathode and the tantalum block is replaced by a lower TOP surface surface mount device design, forming an integrated PCB bearing structure.
[0030] The epoxy glass fiber board 5 is provided with a through hole, and the anode pin on the anode connection surface 11 passes through the through hole and is led out from the bottom groove of the supporting copper platform 1 together with the cathode pin on the cathode connection surface 12 .
[0031] Changing the electrode lead-out method from the two sides to the bottom leads not only improves the electrical conductivity of the conductor, but also shortens the conductive loop and avoids the horizontal space occupation by the side frame.
[0032] The bottom of the supporting copper platform 1 is provided with a non-functional pad, and a glass fiber reinforced plastic sleeve 4 is fixed on the non-functional pad.
[0033] The process strength and insulation withstand voltage performance are improved by combining glass fiber and resin, thereby reducing the thickness of the insulation shell and achieving a smaller Z-axis dimension.
[0034] The outer surface of the glass fiber reinforced plastic sleeve 4 is coated with a solder resist layer, which can prevent solder from adhering to specific areas of the PCB surface. Only the designated areas where the components are to be connected can receive solder, which can prevent solder from entering the rest of the circuit, thereby reducing the possibility of solder bridges that may cause short circuits.
[0035] The thickness of the OSP organic solder film 3 is 0.2-0.5um, preferably 0.3um, to prevent the copper surface from being oxidized before soldering and to protect the solderability of the PCB pad from being damaged.
[0036] The working principle of the utility model is to integrate the structural components with the help of the PCB platform to form a stepped structure with ultra-thick copper characteristics, thus realizing the integrated load-bearing mode and modular packaging function of the tantalum capacitor;
[0037] Low ESR technology, developing pure metal electroplating bosses and laser through-hole technology, changing the side lead-out form of the frame lead to bottom electrode lead-out, on the one hand to improve the conductivity of the conductor, on the other hand to shorten the conductive loop, achieving the effect of reducing ESR.
