[0029] The following is a specific embodiment of the present application and further describes the technical solution of the present application in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to these embodiments.
[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-4 The present application discloses a frame structure of a semiconductor chip, comprising a plurality of packages 100, wherein each package 100 comprises:
[0031] a base island 150 for carrying a chip;
[0032] The outer ring of the base island 150 is provided with a plurality of pin webs 110 connected head to tail, the front surface of the pin web 110 is provided with a plurality of inner ring pins 120 and a plurality of outer ring pins 130, and the inner ring pin 120 and the outer ring pin 130 have a disconnection gap 111 therebetween;
[0033] The back surface of the pin web 110 is provided with a cutting portion, and the pin web 110 allows a cutter to cut along the cutting portion to form a disconnection groove 112 connected with the disconnection gap 111.
[0034] Specifically, the application sets multiple pin webs 110 on the outer ring of the base island 150, sets inner ring pins 120 and outer ring pins 130 on the two sides of the front of the pin web 110 respectively, and has a disconnection gap 111 between the inner ring pin 120 and the outer ring pin 130; the back of the pin web 110 is provided with a cutting part, and the pin web 110 is cut along the cutting part by a cutter, thereby forming a disconnection groove 112 that can communicate with the disconnection gap 111. That is, after the pin web 110 is cut off by the cutter, the connection of the inner ring pin 120 and the outer ring pin 130 can be disconnected.
[0035] The above arrangement of the application realizes the arrangement of the inner and outer ring pins 130, and when the inner ring pin 120 is connected, it is not necessary to additionally set a web to pass through the outer ring pin 130, which can reduce the spacing between the two outer ring pins 130, increase the arrangement number of the inner and outer ring pins 130, and enhance the product performance. At the same time, since it is not necessary to additionally set a web to pass through the gap between the two outer ring pins 130, it is not necessary to set a half-etching area on the front of the frame, thereby simplifying the process. Furthermore, after the pin web 110 is cut off by the cutter, the inner ring pin 120 and the outer ring pin 130 are completely separated, and even if burrs are generated after cutting, these burrs cannot connect with the pins on the other side through the disconnection groove 112, thereby avoiding the short circuit of the inner ring pin 120 and the outer ring pin 130 caused by cutting burrs.
[0036] Further, the disconnection groove 112 is filled with green paint.
[0037] Specifically, filling the disconnection groove 112 with green paint can avoid the tin paste from entering the disconnection groove 112 during the soldering process, thereby avoiding the short circuit of the inner ring pin 120 and the outer ring pin 130.
[0038] Further, multiple base island webs 160 are arranged between the pin web 110 and the base island 150.
[0039] Specifically, the base island webs 160 connect the base island 150 and the pin web 110. The cross section of the base island 150 is in the shape of a quadrilateral, and four base island webs 160 are connected to the base island 150, and the four base island webs 160 are arranged at the four corners of the base island 150.
[0040] Further, the cutter is in the shape of a disc, the peripheral wall of the cutter can be in contact with the cutting part, and the cutter is rotated to cut the cutting part.
[0041] The two ends of each pin web 110 respectively extend outward to form an extension, and when the cutter cuts the end of the pin web 110, at least part of the cutter is above the extension.
[0042] It should be noted that the cutter is disc-shaped, and the peripheral wall of the disc-shaped cutter moves and cuts the leg connecting rib 110 by self-rotation of the disc-shaped cutter. However, because the cutter is disc-shaped, the part of the cutter that acts on the cutting is only the lowest point of the side wall. When the outermost side of the cutter is just at the end of the leg connecting rib 110, the lowest point of the cutter has not yet cut to the end of the leg connecting rib 110, and there is a problem that the cutter cannot continue to cut, but the leg connecting rib 110 has not been completely cut off.
[0043] Based on this, an extension section is arranged at the end of the leg connecting rib 110, which can allow the outermost side of the cutter to continue to cut after reaching the end of the leg connecting rib 110, so as to make the lowest point of the cutter continue to cut towards the end of the leg connecting rib 110 until the lowest point of the cutter cuts to the end of the leg connecting rib 110 or directly passes through the end of the leg connecting rib 110 to cut off the leg connecting rib 110, thereby ensuring that the inner ring leg 120 and the outer ring leg 130 are completely disconnected.
[0044] Furthermore, the disconnection of the inner ring leg 120 and the outer ring leg 130 is realized by the cutter, which replaces the original scheme of disconnecting the inner and outer ring legs 130 by etching process, thereby reducing the manufacturing process difficulty and manufacturing cost of the package.
[0045] Further, the extension section of any of the leg connecting ribs 110 is connected to the extension section of an adjacent leg connecting rib.
[0046] Further, a plurality of the leg connecting ribs 110 are arranged on the frame structure in a horizontal and vertical staggered manner, and any of the leg connecting ribs 110 is perpendicular to, parallel to, or in the same straight line as another leg connecting rib 110.
[0047] Specifically, a plurality of leg connecting ribs 110 are arranged in the same straight line, and the extension sections of the end portions of the adjacent two leg connecting ribs 110 are connected to each other, and the cutter only needs to cut in the same direction when cutting, without the need for multiple turns, so as to reduce the cutting difficulty.
[0048] Further, a cutting channel 140 is arranged between any two adjacent parallel leg connecting ribs 110, and the cutter can cut along the cutting channel 140 to divide the frame structure into a plurality of the packages 100.
[0049] Further, a plurality of the cutting channels 140 are distributed in a horizontal and vertical staggered manner, and the plurality of the cutting channels 140 arranged horizontally are connected end to end, and the plurality of the cutting channels 140 arranged vertically are connected end to end.
[0050] Specifically, the cutting channel 140 is arranged between the two connected and parallel leg connecting ribs 110, and the cutter cuts along the cutting channel 140 to divide the entire frame into a plurality of the packages 100.
[0051] Meanwhile, since the plurality of cutting channels 140 are arranged in a crisscross manner and the plurality of cutting channels 140 in the same straight line are connected end to end, the cutter only needs to feed in one direction in a single cutting, without turning, and after the cutting in the straight line is completed, the cutter can enter the next straight line for cutting.
[0052] It should be noted that all directional indications, such as upper, lower, left, right, front, back, etc., in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement condition, etc. between components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the drawings), and if the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

Therefore, the features limited by "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically limited.

For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0055] In addition, the technical solutions of each embodiment of the present application can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the realization of the ordinary skilled in the art, when the combination of technical solutions appears contradictory or unachievable, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist, nor is it within the scope of protection required by the present application.
