The first diode 20 and the second diode 30 are, for example, both fast recovery diodes, and their external includes four connection terminals, namely a first pin 110, a second pin 120, a third pin 130, and a fourth pin 140. Among them, the first pin 110 is connected to the gate G of the insulated gate bipolar transistor 10, the second pin is connected to the emitter E of the insulated gate bipolar transistor 10 and the anode of the first diode 20, the third pin 130 serves as an input terminal and is connected to the collector C of the insulated gate bipolar transistor, the cathode of the first diode 20, and the anode of the second diode 30, and the fourth pin 140 serves as an output terminal and is connected to the cathode of the second diode 30.

[0035] Figure 2 FIG. 4 shows a partial enlarged schematic view of the plastic package body region in the co-packaged structure of the first embodiment of the present invention. In order to better illustrate the connection and positional relationship of each part in the co-packaged structure, the plastic package body 6 of the co-packaged structure is subjected to a perspective treatment, and the contour of the plastic package body 6 is marked with a dotted line. The co-packaged structure includes an insulating substrate 4, a first base island 1, a second base island 2, an insulated gate bipolar transistor 10, a first diode 20, a second diode 30, a plurality of pins, and a plastic package body 6. Among them, the plurality of pins include a first pin 110, a second pin 120, a third pin 130, and a fourth pin 140. The first base island 1 and the second base island 2 are located on the first surface of the insulating substrate 4, for example, on the left and right sides of the insulating substrate 4 respectively, and are electrically isolated from each other between the first base island 1 and the second base island 2. A through hole 5 is also provided in the upper region of the insulating substrate 4. The first base island 1 and the second base island 2 avoid the through hole 5 in the upper region of the insulating substrate 4. The through hole 5 penetrates the plastic package body 6. The through hole 5 is, for example, circular and is used for a fixing screw to pass through, so as to fix the co-packaged structure. Of course, it can also achieve a heat conduction and heat dissipation function through the fixing screw. The insulating substrate 4 is, for example, a ceramic substrate.

[0036] The insulated gate bipolar transistor 10 is located on the first base island 1, for example, on the left side of the lower region of the first base island 1. The first diode 20 is also located on the first base island 1. The first diode 20 is, for example, located on the right side of the insulated gate bipolar transistor 10.

The back side of the first diode 20 is mounted on the first base island 1, and the cathode on the back side of the first diode 20 is also electrically connected to the first base island 1.

[0039] The anode on the front side of the second diode 30 is electrically connected to the first base island 1 through a bonding wire. The back side of the second diode 30 is mounted on the second base island 2, and the cathode on the back side of the second diode 30 is electrically connected to the second base island 2 and is electrically connected to the fourth pin 140 through a bonding wire.

[0040] Specifically, the insulated gate bipolar transistor 10, the first diode 20, and the second diode 30 are bonded to the corresponding base islands through, for example, solder paste, solder, or sintered silver. After the bonding wire connection is completed, a plastic package 6 covering the insulated gate bipolar transistor 10, the first diode 20, the second diode 30, the first base island 1, the second base island 2, the insulating substrate 4, and parts of the multiple pins is finally formed by a molding compound. It can be understood that in addition to being electrically connected to the respective pins through the bonding wires, the insulated gate bipolar transistor 10, the first diode 20, and the second diode 30 can also be electrically connected to the respective pins through metal clips.

[0041] The first pin 110, the second pin 120, the third pin 130, and the fourth pin 140 all extend from the lower side of the plastic package 6.

[0042] Figure 3 A front view showing the co-packaging structure of the first embodiment of the present invention is as Figure 3 shown. The co-packaging structure uses, for example, single in-line pins. The first pin 110, the second pin 120, the third pin 130, and the fourth pin 140 are arranged in sequence from left to right on the lower side of the plastic package 6. Among them, the width of the first pin 110 is less than or equal to the widths of the second pin 120, the third pin 130, and the fourth pin 140; the center distance between the second pin 120 and the third pin 130 is the same as the center distance between the third pin 130 and the fourth pin 140, for example, both are D1, and the distance D1 is, for example, 4 mm to 5 mm. The center distance D2 between the first pin 110 and the second pin 120 is, for example, 2.5 mm to 3.5 mm. The length H that the first pin 110, the second pin 120, the third pin 130, and the fourth pin 140 extend from the lower side of the plastic package 6 is, for example, 15 mm to 25 mm. The width D3 of the plastic package 6 is, for example, 15 mm to 18 mm. In other embodiments, the center distances between adjacent pins among the first pin 110, the second pin 120, the third pin 130, and the fourth pin 140 are all the same, and the center distance between adjacent pins is, for example, 3.5 mm to 4.5 mm.

In this embodiment, the insulating substrate 4 is a ceramic substrate. A heat sink 7 is provided on the second surface of the insulating substrate 4. The material of the heat sink 7 is copper. The heat sink 7 protrudes from the plastic package 6, and the second surface is opposite to the first surface. The insulating substrate 4, the first base island 1, the second base island 2 and the heat sink 7 together form a direct bonded copper (DBC) substrate.

[0044] It can be understood that the co - packaging structure in the first embodiment can also be realized after mirroring, that is, the second base island 2 is on the left side and the first base island 1 is on the right side. Correspondingly, the fourth pin 140, the third pin 130, the second pin 120 and the first pin 110 are arranged in sequence from left to right along the lower side of the plastic package 6.

[0045] The co - packaging structure provided by the present utility model packages an insulated gate bipolar transistor and two diodes in the same plastic package, reducing the number of devices, the area occupied on the circuit board, the assembly steps, and the assembly cost.

[0046] Furthermore, the first base island of the co - packaging structure is welded to the third pin through an extension part. The chips (insulated gate bipolar transistor, diode) and the pins are connected by bonding wires, and all of them have mature processes and are easy to implement in the industry.

[0047] Furthermore, the insulated gate bipolar transistor and the first diode are located on the first base island, the second diode is located on the second base island, and the first diode is located between the insulated gate bipolar transistor and the second diode. Its layout is reasonable and it has good heat dissipation ability.

[0048] Furthermore, the first base island is welded to the third pin through an extension part, which can carry a larger current, thereby improving the performance of the co - packaging structure.

[0049] Furthermore, the center distance between adjacent pins is relatively large, ensuring the withstand voltage performance of the co - packaging structure, which has a withstand voltage performance of more than 650V.

[0050] Furthermore, the length, width, spacing, etc. of each pin in the co - packaging structure can be adjusted within a certain range according to customer requirements, making the co - packaging structure have great installation adaptability. Its manufacturing process is simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to implement.

[0051] Furthermore, the co - packaging structure is internally provided with an insulating substrate, avoiding the operation of electrically isolating the insulated gate bipolar transistor, the first diode and the second diode by externally attaching an insulating sheet or insulating film, and improving the use convenience.
