[0002] With the technological advancement of IGBT devices, the required chip integration level continues to increase, and circuit wiring is becoming increasingly fine.

DBC devices combine the unique high thermal conductivity, high electrical insulation, high mechanical strength, low expansion, and strong current-carrying capacity of ceramics with the high conductivity and excellent solderability of oxygen-free copper, allowing for etching of various patterns. This makes them widely used in power modules (IGBTs) and integrated power electronics modules. DBC device testing, as an essential step before IGBT packaging, significantly reduces the cost of defective packaging.

[0030] See Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment discloses a semiconductor module testing device, including a testing module 1 and a device tooling module 2.
[0031] The test module 1 includes a test board assembly, a probe 14, a guide sleeve 15, and a guide shaft 16. The test board assembly includes a large board 11, a test PCB 12, and a fixed plate 13. The test PCB 12 is pressed onto one side of the large board 11 through the fixed plate 13. In this embodiment, the large board 11 is an insulating large board, and the test PCB 12 is pressed onto the back of the large board 11 and fixed by fasteners, which can be screws. The end of the probe 14 away from the detection end passes through the fixed plate 13 and is fixed to the test PCB 12. In this embodiment, two guide sleeves 15 are provided on the large board 11, and a guide shaft 16 is provided on the guide sleeve 15. A first positioning hole (not shown in the figure) is provided at the bottom of the guide shaft 16.
[0032] Furthermore, the large plate 11 is provided with an isolation plate 17 capable of isolating the electrodes of the probes 14, so as to separate the probes 14 according to different electrodes.
[0033] The device tooling module 2 includes a thermal pad 21, a container pad 22, and an insulating pad 23. A first positioning shaft 211 that can cooperate with the first positioning hole is fixed on the thermal pad 21. Specifically, when the first positioning shaft 211 is inserted into the first positioning hole, precise guiding work is completed, so that the probe 14 accurately contacts the corresponding contacts of the DBC device 3, thereby preventing damage to the DBC device 3.
[0034] The container pad 22 is arranged on the thermal pad 21 . In this embodiment, the thermal pad 21 is provided with two second positioning shafts 212 , and a second positioning hole cooperating with the second positioning shafts 212 is correspondingly provided at the bottom of the container pad 22 .
[0035] The container pad 22 is provided with a solution tank 221 capable of placing the insulating pad 23, and the solution tank 221 is filled with insulating solution; at least two third positioning shafts 222 are provided at the bottom of the solution tank 221, and the bottom of the insulating pad 23 is correspondingly provided with a third positioning hole that cooperates with the third positioning shaft 222.
[0036] Furthermore, the container spacer 22 is provided with an anti-overflow groove 223 at the notch surrounding the solution tank 221 to prevent the insulating solution in the solution tank 221 from overflowing the container spacer 22 .
[0037] Furthermore, the container spacer 22 is also provided with scale lines to facilitate observation of the amount of insulating solution injected into the solution tank 221 .
[0038] The insulating spacer 23 is provided with a plurality of through holes and a guide groove along the length direction of the insulating spacer 23 .
[0039] The working process of this embodiment is:
[0040] Working State 1: Place the DBC device 3 in the insulating spacer 23. Insulating solution is injected into the container spacer 22 up to the scale line, immersing the DBC device 3 in the insulating solution to meet the insulation distance requirements in a high-voltage test environment. Either the test module 1 or the device fixture module 2 can move up and down through a mechanism. For example, in one of these states, when the device fixture module 2 moves upward as a whole and the first positioning shaft 211 is inserted into the first positioning hole, precise guidance is completed, allowing the probe 14 to accurately contact the corresponding contacts of the DBC device 3 after passing through the insulating solution, preventing damage to the DBC device 3. Simultaneously, the thermal pad 21 conducts heat to the insulating solution, achieving a high-temperature test environment and completing the test.
[0041] Working state 2: The isolation plate 17 is inserted into the large plate 11, and the probes 14 are separated according to the different electrodes to meet the insulation distance requirements during high voltage testing.
[0042] Working state 3: When the insulating solution reaches a certain number of tests and needs to be replaced, the container spacer 22 can be directly picked up, and the insulating spacer 23 and the DBC device 3 can be taken out from the insulating solution to replace the insulating solution.
[0043] Working state 4: Different DBC devices 3 can be replaced as required, and an insulating spacer 23 needs to be designed to match. The insulating spacer 23 has several vias in the DBC device 3 area and the rest of the back has square grooves. A guide groove is also provided along the length of the insulating spacer 23 to reduce the contact pressure with the insulating solution during placement.
[0044] In this embodiment, the test device can achieve good test conditions for the DBC device 3 in a high voltage test environment during semiconductor testing, its own electrical insulation requirements meet the test conditions, and the probe 14 and the DBC device 3 are precisely aligned and contacted.
