Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of reflow soldering technology, in particular to a reflow soldering fixture for an epoxy resin injection molding module radiator. Background Art
[0002] Reflow soldering is a soldering process that remelts the solder paste pre-dispensed onto the printed circuit board pads to achieve mechanical and electrical connections between the terminals or leads of surface mount components and the printed circuit board pads. Typically, to achieve higher soldering efficiency, high-temperature gas is reflowed in the soldering chamber to maintain a high soldering ambient temperature, thereby melting the solder.
[0003] Epoxy resin injection molded modules are structures formed through the injection molding process using epoxy resin molding compound as raw material. Due to its excellent dielectric properties, it is widely used in the semiconductor field in packaging processes, especially as a packaging structure for discrete power devices.
[0004] In the prior art, after a power device, such as an IGBT, is prepared through processes such as photolithography and evaporation, it is usually placed in a packaging structure. For example, the device is soldered to a substrate, and then the electrodes of the device are led out through solder joints or gold wires and connected to the pins of the packaging structure. Then, epoxy resin is injected into the substrate through an injection molding process and cured to wrap the substrate and the power device to form an epoxy resin injection molding module.
[0005] Epoxy resin injection molded modules typically have good physical properties. However, as the voltage rating and power of power devices continue to rise, significant heat buildup occurs in the devices and packages. To prevent device burnout due to excessive temperatures, a heat dissipation structure, such as heat sink fins produced through aluminum extrusion, is often required on the epoxy resin injection molded module. Brazing is often used as the connection method between epoxy resin injection molded modules and heat sinks due to its excellent thermal conductivity and low production cost.
[0006] However, during the actual implementation process, the inventors found that in the reflow soldering of the heat sink of the traditional power module package, the welding module size is smaller than the welding surface size, but the epoxy resin injection molded module cannot be reflow soldered due to the epoxy resin part, and the welding stress of the solder is very large under the high-temperature operating environment. The flat heat sink cannot guarantee the welding quality and height of the module, thereby affecting the yield. Utility Model Content

[0056] A plurality of heat sink mounting positions 11 corresponding to the shape of an inverted heat sink are distributed on the reflow carrier 1;
[0057] It should be noted that Figure 1 The radiator mounting position 11 in the figure has been installed upside down, and when the radiator is not installed, there is an empty mounting hole position;
[0058] The padding fixture 2 is located above the reflow fixture 1;
[0059] The raising fixture 2 is provided with a welding through hole 21 above the radiator mounting position 1;
[0060] The depth of the welding through hole 21 corresponds to the welding height between the epoxy resin injection molding module and the heat sink.
[0061] Specifically, in order to address the problem that tilting and height inconsistency may occur during the radiator welding process in the prior art, thereby affecting the subsequent device installation and heat dissipation, in this solution, a specific raising fixture 2 is designed in the reflow soldering fixture. The two sides of the raising fixture 2 are respectively offset against the radiator and the epoxy resin injection molding module. The parallel welding process is achieved by raising the plane of the raising fixture 2. At the same time, the welding height is fixed by controlling the depth of the welding through hole 21 to achieve a better welding yield.
[0062] Specifically, during the reflow soldering process, solder paste needs to be applied between the heat sink and the epoxy resin injection molding module, and then the two are pasted together and sent into the soldering box for heating and soldering, and then cooled and fixed.
[0063] Using the aforementioned fixture, initially, heat sinks are sequentially installed in an inverted orientation into the multiple heat sink mounting locations 11 on the reflow carrier 1, with the fins facing downward and the soldering surface facing upward. Subsequently, a standoff fixture 2 is placed above the reflow carrier 1 and the heat sink, with its soldering holes 21 aligned with the soldering surface of the heat sink below.
[0064] Then, a corresponding mask is used to cover the bottom of the padding fixture 2, and solder paste is applied to the welding through hole 21. Then, an epoxy resin injection molding module is flipped over the welding through hole 21, and the padding fixture 2 is used to control the welding height and plane.
[0065] In one embodiment, it further includes:
[0066] Limit frame 3;
[0067] The limiting frame 3 is provided with a plurality of limiting holes 31 corresponding to the epoxy resin injection molding modules;

After the reflow carrier 1, the elevation fixture 2, and the limit frame 3 are roughly aligned, the first to third positioning holes can usually also be roughly aligned, and then the positioning post 4 can be inserted to assist in positioning, thereby achieving a more accurate positioning process.
[0084] In one embodiment, the positioning blocks 13 are arranged at intervals.
[0085] Specifically, to achieve better assembly efficiency and more stable positioning, in this embodiment, positioning blocks 13 are interspersed between the spacing blocks 12.

[0099] The first pad 23 is a lying rectangular structure viewed from the side, with its bottom set on the first plane of the reflow carrier 1 and its inner side near the radiator mounting position 11 abutting against the side wall between the first and second planes of the reflow carrier 1 .
[0100] Correspondingly, the second cushion block 24 is a rectangular structure with a height direction longer than a bottom direction, and the side wall of the second plane of the reflow carrier 1 abuts against the inner side surface of the second cushion block 24 .
