DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a multi-chip cascade packaging structure provided by an embodiment of the utility model. The multi-chip cascade packaging structure may include:
[0033] A first gallium nitride chip 5, a semiconductor chip 14, and a second gallium nitride chip 18 are arranged in sequence; the semiconductor chip 14 is a silicon-based MOSFET chip or a silicon carbide-based MOSFET chip;
[0034] The gate, drain and source of the first gallium nitride chip 5, the gate, drain and source of the second gallium nitride chip 18, and the gate 9 of the semiconductor chip 14 and the source 13 of the semiconductor chip are all arranged on the front side of the corresponding chip, the drain of the semiconductor chip 14 is arranged on the back side of the semiconductor chip 14, and the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are both provided with gates on both sides along the direction perpendicular to the arrangement of the first gallium nitride chip 5, the semiconductor chip 14 and the second gallium nitride chip 18;
[0035] The first gate 8 in the first gallium nitride chip and the second gate 15 in the second gallium nitride chip are both conductively connected to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip; the first gate is the gate on the side of the first gallium nitride chip 5 close to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip, and the second gate is the gate on the side of the second gallium nitride chip 18 close to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip;
[0036] The source 7 of the first gallium nitride chip and the source 16 of the second gallium nitride chip are both conductively connected to the drain of the semiconductor chip 14, and the drain 6 of the first gallium nitride chip and the drain 17 of the second gallium nitride chip are both conductively connected to the drain pin 11, the gate 9 of the semiconductor chip is conductively connected to the gate pin 10, and the source 13 of the semiconductor chip is conductively connected to the source pin 12.
[0037] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the semiconductor chip 14 is set as a silicon-based MOSFET chip, or the semiconductor chip 14 is set as a silicon carbide-based MOSFET chip, so as to be compatible with the gallium nitride chip for cascade packaging. And the gate, drain and source of the first gallium nitride chip 5, the gate, drain and source of the second gallium nitride chip 18, and the gate 9 and source of the semiconductor chip can be set on the front of the chip, and the drain of the semiconductor chip 14 is set on the back of the semiconductor chip 14. When multiple chips are cascaded and packaged, they are generally set to the same surface height to ensure regularity. At this time, the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are led out, and the gate 9 and source of the semiconductor chip are set on the same surface for easy connection. It should be pointed out that this embodiment does not limit the specific setting area of the drain of the semiconductor chip 14. For example, the drain of the semiconductor chip 14 can be set on the side surface facing away from the surface of the semiconductor chip 14 where the gate and source are set.
[0038] Furthermore, the leads between the multiple chips in the cascade package can be connected by wire bonding. However, considering that the first gallium nitride chip 5, the second gallium nitride chip 18, and the semiconductor chip 14 as described above are provided in this embodiment, the number of leads is greatly increased, so it is necessary to reduce the complexity of wire bonding. Therefore, in this application, the arrangement direction of the first gallium nitride chip 5, the semiconductor chip 14, and the second gallium nitride chip 18 can be set as a preset direction, and the surface of the first gallium nitride chip 5 is perpendicular to the preset direction. Both sides are provided with corresponding gates, and the surface of the second gallium nitride chip 18 is also perpendicular to the preset direction. Both sides are provided with corresponding gates. The gate, that is, the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 both include a first gate and a second gate. Therefore, when the gate in the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the gate in the second gallium nitride chip 18 are both connected to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip, the gate in the first gallium nitride chip 5 close to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip can be connected to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip by wire bonding. Correspondingly, the gate in the second gallium nitride chip 18 close to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip can be connected to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip by wire bonding, thereby realizing the simplicity of multi-chip cascade packaging.
[0039] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first gate electrode of the first gallium nitride chip 5 is arranged closer to the source electrode 13 of the semiconductor chip, and the second gate electrode of the second gallium nitride chip 18 is arranged closer to the source electrode 13 of the semiconductor chip, that is, the first gate electrode 8 of the first gallium nitride chip and the second gate electrode 15 of the second gallium nitride chip are arranged on the same side perpendicular to the preset direction in the corresponding gallium nitride chip. In this embodiment, the specific positions of the first gate electrode 8 of the first gallium nitride chip and the second gate electrode 15 of the second gallium nitride chip are not limited, as long as they are located in the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 close to the source electrode 13 of the semiconductor chip. Furthermore, to ensure that the multi-chip cascade packaging is completed, the source electrode 7 of the first gallium nitride chip and the source electrode 16 of the second gallium nitride chip are both conductively connected to the drain electrode of the semiconductor chip 14. In a feasible embodiment, since the drain electrode of the semiconductor chip 14 is arranged on a side surface facing away from the source electrode 13 and the gate electrode of the semiconductor chip, the source electrode 7 of the first gallium nitride chip and the source electrode 16 of the second gallium nitride chip can be arranged on a side of the surface of each gallium nitride chip close to the semiconductor chip 14, so as to facilitate wire bonding connection with the drain electrode of the semiconductor chip 14, and then the remaining lead electrodes of each chip are respectively connected to the corresponding pins.
[0040] In this embodiment, while ensuring that the first gallium nitride chip 5, the second gallium nitride chip 18 and the semiconductor chip 14 are cascade packaged to improve the overall power of the device, the simplicity of connection between the three is improved and the difficulty of preparation is reduced.
[0041] Furthermore, in order to improve the manufacturing efficiency of the multi-chip cascade packaging structure, the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 may be identical, and the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 may be symmetrically arranged along the semiconductor chip 14 .
[0042] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are identical, and the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are symmetrically arranged along the semiconductor chip 14. It is not necessary to distinguish between the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18. It is only necessary to arrange the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 on both sides of the semiconductor chip 14 according to different arrangement positions during preparation. In addition, in this embodiment, since the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are identical, the first gate 8 of the first gallium nitride chip is identical to the first gate 20 of the second gallium nitride chip, the second gate 22 of the first gallium nitride chip is identical to the second gate 15 of the second gallium nitride chip, and the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are symmetrically arranged along the semiconductor chip 14. Therefore, the gate of the second gallium nitride chip 18 close to the source of the semiconductor chip 14 is the second gate, that is, the first gate 8 of the first gallium nitride chip and the second gate 15 of the second gallium nitride chip are both connected to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip.
[0043] Furthermore, in order to ensure the regularity and convenience of the first gate 8 of the first gallium nitride chip and the second gate 15 of the second gallium nitride chip being connected to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip, the first gate may be conductively connected to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip through a first binding wire, and the second gate may be conductively connected to the source 13 of the semiconductor chip through a second binding wire;
[0044] The number of the first bonding wires and the second bonding wires is the same and they are symmetrically arranged along the semiconductor chip 14 .
[0045] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first gate 8 of the first gallium nitride chip is conductively connected to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip by using the first binding wire, and the second gate 15 of the second gallium nitride chip is conductively connected to the source 13 of the above-mentioned semiconductor chip by using the second binding wire. When the above-mentioned first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are symmetrically arranged along the above-mentioned semiconductor chip 14, the first gate 8 of the first gallium nitride chip and the second gate 15 of the second gallium nitride chip can be specifically arranged symmetrically along the above-mentioned semiconductor chip 14, and then the number of the above-mentioned first binding wires and the second binding wires can be set to be the same, and they can be symmetrically arranged along the above-mentioned semiconductor chip 14, so as to further improve the regularity of the package.
[0046] Furthermore, in order to improve the regularity of the multi-chip cascade packaging structure, the source electrode 7 of the first gallium nitride chip can be conductively connected to the drain electrode of the semiconductor chip 14 through a third bonding wire or a third metal strip, and the source electrode 16 of the second gallium nitride chip can be conductively connected to the drain electrode of the semiconductor chip 14 through a fourth bonding wire or a fourth metal strip;
[0047] The number of the third bonding wires or the third metal strips is the same as that of the fourth bonding wires or the fourth metal strips, and they are symmetrically arranged along the semiconductor chip 14 .
[0048] It should be noted that when the drain of the semiconductor chip 14 is located on different surfaces from the source 13 and the gate of the semiconductor chip, the drain is set on the side surface of the semiconductor chip 14 facing away from its source and gate. At this time, the drain of the semiconductor chip 14 can be at the same distance from the first gallium nitride chip 5 and the second gallium nitride chip 18, which improves the convenience and regularity of connection. It should be pointed out that in this embodiment, the source 7 of the first gallium nitride chip and the source 16 of the second gallium nitride chip can be set on the side of the surface of each chip close to the semiconductor chip 14 to facilitate conductive connection.
[0049] Furthermore, in order to improve the convenience of cascade packaging of the multi-chip cascade packaging structure, it may also include a package base island 1 and a direct copper clad plate 2;
[0050] The direct copper clad board 2 is arranged on the surface of the package base island 1, and the exposed side surface of the direct copper clad board 2 is provided with a first copper clad area 4, a second copper clad area 21 and a third copper clad area 19; the first gallium nitride chip 5, the semiconductor chip 14 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 are arranged on the surfaces of the first copper clad area 4, the second copper clad area 21 and the third copper clad area 19 respectively;
[0051] Correspondingly, the drain 6 of the first gallium nitride chip and the drain 17 of the second gallium nitride chip are both conductively connected to the drain pin 11 through the package base island 1 .
[0052] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the package base island 1 is used as a support body, and a direct copper clad board 2 is prepared on the package base island 1, and the exposed surface of the direct copper clad board 2 includes a first copper clad area 4, a second copper clad area 21 and a third copper clad area 19. Specifically, the first copper clad area 4, the second copper clad area 21 and the third copper clad area 19 are generally arranged on the side of the direct copper clad board 2 facing away from the package base island 1. When the drain of the semiconductor chip 14 is arranged on the back side, it can be conductively connected to the corresponding copper clad area, and the source 7 of the first gallium nitride chip and the source 16 of the second gallium nitride chip can be conductively connected to the copper clad area, which is convenient for wiring.
[0053] Furthermore, in order to ensure the stability of the multi-chip cascade packaging structure, a fourth copper-clad area 24 is further provided on the surface of the copper-clad board 2 that directly contacts the package base island 1;
[0054] The fourth copper-clad area 24 is connected to the package base island 1 through soft solder or conductive glue.
[0055] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the surface of the direct copper clad laminate 2 facing the package base island 1 is connected to the package base island 1 through soft solder or conductive glue, which can reduce the stress between the direct copper clad laminate 2 and the package base island 1 and improve the packaging stability.
[0056] Further, in a feasible embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the structure of a direct copper-clad silicon nitride ceramic board in a multi-chip cascade packaging structure provided by an embodiment of the utility model. The direct copper-clad board 2 can be set as a direct copper-clad silicon nitride ceramic board.
[0057] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the direct copper-clad board 2 is configured to be directly copper-clad on the surface of the silicon nitride ceramic board 23 to obtain the above-mentioned direct copper-clad silicon nitride ceramic board 23, which can ensure the heat dissipation effect of the structure.
[0058] Furthermore, in order to improve the stability of the multi-chip cascade packaging structure, the first gallium nitride chip 5, the semiconductor chip 14 and the second gallium nitride chip 18 can be arranged on the surfaces of the first copper clad area 4, the second copper clad area 21 and the third copper clad area 19 through conductive glue.
[0059] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first and second gallium nitride chips and the semiconductor chip 14 are arranged in corresponding copper-clad areas by using conductive adhesive, which reduces the stress between structures and further improves the structural stability.
[0060] Furthermore, in order to improve the simplicity of the structure, the package base island 1 and the drain pin 11 may be arranged as an integrated structure.
[0061] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the package base island 1 and the drain pin 11 are integrated into a structure, and the drain 6 of the first gallium nitride chip and the drain 17 of the second gallium nitride chip can be directly conductively connected to the package base island 1, which is convenient for wiring connection.
[0062] Furthermore, in a feasible embodiment, the gate pin 10 , the drain pin 11 and the source pin 12 may be arranged in sequence.
[0063] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the gate pin 10, the drain pin 11 and the source pin 12 are arranged in sequence along the specified direction, and the lead-out electrode of the corresponding chip is connected to the corresponding pin by wire bonding, which ensures that the pin layout in this application is the same as the conventional pin layout, thereby improving the convenience of preparation.
