Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a discrete device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Power semiconductors are key devices in the power electronics industry, and are widely used in industrial control, rail transportation, consumer electronics, new energy vehicles, and other fields. In the field of new energy vehicles, in order to solve the range anxiety of users, manufacturers pursue fast charging and super charging technologies to save charging time. To achieve fast charging and super charging, the power needs to be increased, which can be achieved by increasing the working voltage level or increasing the working current. Increasing the working voltage requires the power semiconductor to have stronger insulation capability, and increasing the working current requires it to have stronger heat dissipation capability.

[0003] US patent US10658276 discloses a device, but the creepage distance of the device is too short, which causes the device to be unable to work at high voltage. At the same time, the number of components of the device for combining with plastic packaging material is insufficient, which causes insufficient bonding strength. In addition, the lead frame of the device is too thick, the heat dissipation capability is weak, and the pins are not integrally designed, and the overcurrent capability is poor.

[0004] Chinese invention patent CN115472587A discloses a lead frame that can be compatible with large chips and large creepage distances, but the frame lacks a plastic packaging slot area, and the creepage distance is short.

[0005] Chinese invention patent CN116364673A discloses a TSOP packaging structure for a high-power chip, which is provided with a plurality of grooves in the second area, but the effect of increasing the creepage distance by the grooves is not obvious. UTILITARIAN CONTENT

[0006] In order to help solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a discrete device, which adopts the following technical scheme:

[0007] A discrete device, wherein the discrete device comprises:

[0008] The plastic packaging area is provided with a front surface heat dissipation area in the front part, a back surface heat dissipation area in the rear part, a first pin area in the upper part, and a second pin area connected in the lower part. A plastic packaging slot area is formed on one side of the back surface heat dissipation area close to the second pin area in the rear part of the plastic packaging area. The plastic packaging slot area is a groove transversely penetrating the rear part of the plastic packaging area. The first pin area comprises a connecting part and a first pin part. The upper part of the connecting part extends to the left and right sides to form the first pin part integrally connected with the connecting part. The shape of the plastic packaging slot area is sawtooth-shaped or trapezoidal.

[0009] The body area is plastic encapsulated in the plastic encapsulation area, and includes a heat dissipation area and the first pin area. The heat dissipation area includes the front heat dissipation area and the back heat dissipation area, and the front heat dissipation area and the back heat dissipation area are in a stepped structure. The tread of the stepped structure is a pressure platform area.

[0010] The plastic encapsulation slot area and the pressure platform area are used to increase the creepage distance of the discrete device.

[0011] Preferably, the lock glue grooves are arranged around the mounting area. The first lock glue hole is arranged on the side of the mounting area close to the first pin area. The second lock glue hole and the third lock glue hole are arranged on the end of the second pin area close to the body area, and are located inside the plastic encapsulation area.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting part connects the mounting area and the first pin part, and the first pin part is the first electrode of the discrete device.

[0013] Preferably, the second pin area is arranged separately from the body area. The second pin part and the third pin part are arranged on the end of the second pin area away from the body area, and are located outside the plastic encapsulation area. The second pin part is the second electrode of the discrete device, and the third pin part is the third electrode of the discrete device. The first pin part, the second pin part and the third pin part are used to carry the semiconductor device.

[0015] Preferably, the second pin part is connected to the third pin part, and is used to carry two-pin semiconductor devices.

[0016] In summary, the present application provides a discrete device with high power density, which can achieve higher power density under the same floor area. By optimizing the width of the pressure platform strip step of the frame and the slot width of the plastic encapsulation material, the creepage distance of the discrete device is increased, thereby improving the insulation capability of the discrete device, and the discrete device can work at a higher voltage level. By thinning the thickness of the frame, the heat dissipation capability is further enhanced, and the working current can be increased. At the same time, multiple lock glue grooves and lock glue holes are arranged to enhance the bonding strength of the plastic encapsulation material and the frame, prevent water vapor from entering, increase the reliability of the device, and increase the creepage distance by using a zigzag or trapezoidal shape in the slot area.
