[0023] With the increasing use of power integrated circuit chips, achieving miniaturization, high integration, and high heat dissipation performance in integrated circuit chip packaging has become a common concern in the semiconductor industry. In view of this, an integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided.
[0024] Figure 1A A top view of an integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Figure 1B A top view of another integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Figure 1A and Figure 1B As shown, an integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an integrated circuit chip, a lead frame, and a package body, wherein the lead frame includes a plurality of pins and one or more die-mounted stages (e.g., Figure 1A and Figure 1B The stage shown in the dashed box), at least one of the multiple pins (e.g., pin 6 shown in Figure 1 and...). Figure 2APins 6 and 7 shown are formed as widened leads and integrally integrated with one of one or more die-mount stages to create a heat dissipation channel between the integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package. Here, the integrated circuit chip includes one or more of the following: control integrated circuit chips, power integrated circuit chips, and surface mount devices (e.g., surface mount resistors, surface mount capacitors, etc.).
[0025] Figure 1C It shows Figure 1A and Figure 1B The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of an integrated circuit chip packaging device along axis AA. Figure 1C As shown, in the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, the front side of each die carrier is used to hold the integrated circuit chip and is packaged inside the package body (i.e., packaged inside the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus), and the back side of at least one die carrier is exposed outside the package body (i.e., exposed outside the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus) to expand the heat dissipation channel between the integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package body. In some cases, multiple pins and each die carrier can be on the same plane outside the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus. With the same package body top area, compared with the conventional small outline package (SOP) structure, this packaging structure can be made larger, achieve higher power output, and save pin length and reduce lead frame material costs.
[0026] Figure 1D A top view of yet another integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Figure 1D As shown, in an integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, for the same wafer stage, multiple widened pins (e.g., pin 6 and pin 7) can be integrally formed with the wafer stage to reduce external molding stress.
[0027] In some embodiments of the present invention, the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus can adopt a surface mount structure, which is applicable to both the traditional reflow soldering process in printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) factories and the wave soldering process of the traditional through-hole structure. It can be used for assembly and surface mounting in various assembly plants, which greatly reduces assembly costs.
[0028] Figure 2A It shows the use in Figure 1A The top view of the lead frame in the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. Figure 2B It shows the use in Figure 1A A top view of another lead frame in the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. Figure 2A and Figure 2B As shown, in Figure 1AIn the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown, multiple pins (e.g., pins 2 to 5) other than the widened pin (e.g., pin 6) can be independent of each other or connected together. For the multiple pins connected together, the integrated circuit chip can be connected to these pins by aluminum or copper strip processes to reduce the impedance of the connection lines between the integrated circuit chip and these pins.
[0029] Figure 2C It shows the use in Figure 1B The top view of the lead frame in the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. Figure 2C As shown, in Figure 1B In the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown, different widened pins can be integrated with different wafer stages to form a whole.
[0030] Figure 2D It shows Figures 2A to 2C The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the lead frame along the BB line. Figure 2D As shown, in Figures 2A to 2C In the lead frame shown (i.e., inside the integrated circuit chip packaging device), the pins located on at least one side of the die carrier are raised relative to the die carrier to facilitate connection of the integrated circuit chip to the corresponding pins, while also facilitating the exposure of the back side of the die carrier to the outside of the package.
[0031] To expose the back side of the wafer stage to the outside of the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus, the thickness of the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus can be reduced. Furthermore, the wafer stage can be made larger (e.g., its area accounts for 10% to 90%, such as more than 30%, of the total area of the package of the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus), enabling the wafer stage to support larger power integrated circuit chips while having a larger heat dissipation area exposed to the outside of the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus.
[0032] Figure 3A , Figure 3B , Figure 3C ,and Figure 3D It shows Figure 2A A top view of the variant of the lead frame shown. Figure 3A and Figure 3B As shown, Figure 2A The leadframe pins and / or the edge of the wafer stage shown may be provided with locking holes (e.g., circular or semi-circular locking holes) to increase the bonding strength between the package and the leadframe, thereby increasing product reliability. Figure 3C As shown, Figure 2A The stage of the lead frame shown can be provided with a local silver-plated area (e.g., Figure 3C The shaded area (shown in the image) represents the silver plating area, which satisfies both the wire bonding requirements and increases product reliability. For example... Figure 3D As shown, Figure 2A The stage of the lead frame shown can be provided with a V-groove (e.g., Figure 3D The V-shaped groove (shown by two parallel lines in the horizontal and vertical directions) controls the quality of glue or solder overflow, meeting wire bonding requirements and increasing product reliability.
[0033] Figure 4A It shows Figure 1A and Figure 1D A top view of the internal packaging structure of the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. Figure 4A As shown, in Figure 1A In the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus shown, the die carrier stage can be implemented to have a larger size as needed to support a larger power integrated circuit chip, and a smaller control integrated circuit chip can be attached above the power integrated circuit chip; the die carrier stage is integral with at least one widened pin (e.g., pin 6), such that the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package includes at least one widened pin; the back side of the die carrier stage is exposed to the outside of the package, further expanding the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package.
[0034] Figure 4B It shows Figure 1A and Figure 1D A top view of another internal packaging structure of the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. (See attached image.) Figure 4B As shown, in Figure 1A In the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus shown, the power integrated circuit chip and the control chip can be laid flat on the die carrier stage. The power integrated circuit chip can be connected to multiple pins (e.g., pins 2 to 5 connected together) using aluminum ribbon. This reduces the impedance of the connection lines from the power integrated circuit chip to these pins and reduces the heat generation of the power integrated circuit chip. The die carrier stage is integrated with at least one widened pin (e.g., widened pin 6) so that the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package includes at least one widened pin. The back side of the die carrier stage is exposed to the outside of the package, further expanding the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package.
[0035] Figure 4C It shows Figure 1A and Figure 1D This is a top view of another internal packaging structure of the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. (See attached image.) Figure 4C As shown, in Figure 1AIn the integrated circuit chip packaging apparatus shown, the power integrated circuit chip, the control chip, and the surface mount capacitor can be laid flat on the die carrier stage; the die carrier stage is connected to at least one widened pin (e.g., widened pin 6) so that the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package includes at least one widened pin; the back side of the die carrier stage is exposed to the outside of the package, further expanding the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package.
[0036] Figure 4D It shows Figure 1B A top view of the internal packaging structure of the integrated circuit chip packaging device shown. Figure 4D As shown, the power integrated circuit chip and the control chip can be respectively laid flat on two wafer carriers; the two wafer carriers are each integrated with at least one widened pin (e.g., integrated with pin 6 and pin 7 respectively), so that the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the control chip and the external environment outside the package includes at least two widened pins; the back side of the wafer carrier is exposed to the outside of the package, further expanding the heat dissipation channel between the power integrated circuit chip and the external environment outside the package. Figure 4D The internal packaging structure shown can reduce the size of power integrated circuit chips while maintaining the required power, thereby reducing costs.
[0037] In some embodiments, integrated circuit chips and surface mount devices can be connected to the substrate or pins via different combinations of methods such as conductive adhesive, insulating adhesive, solder, solder paste, wire bonding, or bridging (base island to base island, base island to pin, or via insulating pads). In the case of wire bonding, metal wires of the same or different diameters between 0.7 and 2.0 mils can be used, as well as aluminum or copper strips of different specifications. Integrated circuit chips can be bonded to base islands using conductive adhesive, insulating adhesive, solder, or solder paste, or connected to base islands using wire bonding, or a hybrid method of bonding and wire bonding.
[0038] In some embodiments, a heat sink may be provided at the bottom of the package, and the gap between multiple pins located on at least one side of the die-mount stage and the heat sink is greater than or equal to 1.2 mm. The gap between at least one high-voltage pin and the surrounding pins and the heat sink is greater than or equal to 1.2 mm. This gap design of greater than or equal to 1.2 mm allows for a safe distance withstand voltage of 600V or higher when mounted on a board by the end customer. Additionally, the extension length of each pin relative to the package is between 0.3 and 0.6 mm, and the thickness of the die-mount stage and pins can be set in the range of 0.125 to 0.30 mm.
