[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the embodiments described below, the same components are designated by the same reference numerals, and redundant description will be omitted.

[0010] First Embodiment <Configuration of semiconductor device> Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a semiconductor device according to a first embodiment. Fig. 2 is a plan view showing the configuration of the semiconductor device according to the first embodiment, and corresponds to a view seen from the direction of the arrow in Fig. 1. The semiconductor device 1 according to the first embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2 includes a lead frame 100 and a semiconductor component 300 fixed onto a die pad 100a of the lead frame 100 via a bonding material 200. Note that only the essential parts of the lead frame 100 are shown in the drawings.

[0011] The semiconductor component 300 has, for example, a semiconductor chip 301 sealed in a molded resin package 302, and has a lower electrode 303 to which the semiconductor chip 301 is die-bonded, and an upper electrode 304 disposed opposite the lower electrode 303. The lower electrode 303 and the upper electrode 304 form the outer peripheral surface of the package 302, and the lower electrode 303 is bonded to the lead frame 100 by a bonding material 200.

[0012] Here, the bonding material 200 is assumed to be a bonding material having conductivity, such as solder, metal paste, metal powder, or anisotropic conductive material.

[0013] In the semiconductor device 1 configured as described above, the lead frame 100 has at least one protrusion 101 erected facing the side peripheral surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300. Here, as an example, a configuration is illustrated in which protrusions 101 are provided at two positions on either side of the semiconductor component 300. Each protrusion 101 is made of a cut-out piece of the lead frame 100 that stands up on the side where the semiconductor component 300 is fixed.

[0014] The protrusion 101 made of such a segment has a shape in which the middle portion in the rising direction of the segment is convex toward the side peripheral surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300. Furthermore, it is preferable that such a protrusion 101 has a shape that is curved along the rising direction of the segment. In such a protrusion 101, the height [H1] to the convex end 101a that is arranged closest to the semiconductor component 300 is set to a height that reaches the semiconductor component 300, taking into account the thickness of the bonding material 200. This allows the semiconductor component 300 to be aligned with the protrusion 101 more accurately.

[0015] Furthermore, the minimum opening width [W1] between the protrusions 101 arranged on either side of the semiconductor component 300 is set slightly larger than the width [W3] of the semiconductor component 300, so that the semiconductor component 300 can slide up and down freely between the protrusions 101. This allows the semiconductor component 300 to sink into the lead frame 100 when the bonding material 200 is fluidized by heat treatment, for example, when the solder of the bonding material is reflowed, in the manufacture of a semiconductor device, which will be described later.

[0016] Furthermore, the protrusion 101 having such a shape has a shape that moves away from the side peripheral surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300 from the convex end 101a toward the tip side of the protrusion 101. This makes it easier to fit the semiconductor component 300 between the two protrusions 101 in the manufacture of a semiconductor device, which will be described later. Furthermore, even if the lead frame 100 has only one protrusion 101, the shape of the protrusion 101 makes it easier to position the semiconductor component 300 adjacent to the protrusion 101.

[0017] The lead frame 100 also has a hole 100b formed by cutting out a piece. Here, the piece that forms the protrusion 101 is a portion of the lead frame 100 cut out from near the periphery of the semiconductor component 300 in a direction that overlaps the semiconductor component 300 in a planar view. The cutout piece extends outward from the semiconductor component 300 in a direction away from the semiconductor component 300, thereby forming the protrusion 101. Therefore, the hole 100b formed by cutting out the piece is provided at a position that overlaps the periphery of the semiconductor component 300 in a planar view. Such a hole 100b is preferably shaped to overlap the edge of the lower electrode 303 of the semiconductor component 300 in a planar view. This makes it possible to easily check the wetting and spreading properties of the bonding material 200 on the lower electrode 303.

[0018] In consideration of dissipating heat from the semiconductor component 300 through the lead frame 100, it is preferable that the width of the piece that constitutes the protrusion 101 in the direction along the semiconductor component 300 is small.

[0019] Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing an application example of the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment, and corresponds to an exploded view of the semiconductor device 1. Note that Figs. 1 and 2 shown above also serve as views showing the main parts of the semiconductor device 1 shown in Fig. 3.

[0020] 3, the semiconductor device 1 has a plurality of (e.g., four) electrically independent lead frames 100, and a plurality of semiconductor components 300 are fixed to each of some (e.g., two) of the lead frames 100. The semiconductor components 300 are fixed to the lead frames 100 by bonding materials 200 (not shown) as described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The lead frame 100 also has protrusions 101 standing upright on the side surfaces 300a of the respective semiconductor components 300, and each semiconductor component 300 is sandwiched between the protrusions 101.

[0021] The semiconductor components 300 fixed to each lead frame 100 and the selected lead frame 100 are connected by conductive clips 400 and sealed in a molded resin package (not shown here). Furthermore, each lead frame 100 has outer leads 100c drawn out from the package, and these outer leads 100c are connected to wiring on a mounting board.

[0022] FIG. 4 is a plan view showing a modified example of the application of the semiconductor device 1' of the first embodiment. The semiconductor device 1' shown in this figure differs from the semiconductor device 1 shown in FIG. 3 only in the arrangement of the protrusions 101; other aspects are similar. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the direction in which the semiconductor component 300 is clamped by the protrusions 101 is not limited, and an appropriate direction may be selected depending on the layout of each semiconductor device 1, 1'. Note that FIG. 4 does not show the clip 400 shown in FIG. 3, and instead shows a molded resin package 500 that seals multiple lead frames 100.

[0023] <Method of manufacturing a semiconductor device> 5 and 6 are process diagrams (part 1) and (part 2) showing the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device of the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 will be described in the order shown in FIGS. 5 and 6.

[0024] First, in the first step (1) shown in FIG. 5, a lead frame material 100' is prepared, and a bonding material 200 is placed in an area corresponding to the die pad 100a. The bonding material 200 is placed by, for example, coating. Then, in the second step (2), protrusions 101 are formed on the sides of the bonding material 200, for example, at positions that sandwich the bonding material 200. The protrusions 101 are formed by cutting out a portion of the lead frame material 100', pushing out the cut-out piece from the opposite side of the bonding material 200 to raise it toward the bonding material 200, and further curving or bending the piece into a desired shape as needed. This completes the preparation of a lead frame 100 having protrusions 101 on the sides of the bonding material 200 provided on the die pad 100a. The step of cutting out the lead frame material 100' may be performed simultaneously with the step of cutting out the lead frame material 100' to the outer shape of the lead frame. Furthermore, the bonding material 200 may be placed on the die pad 100a of the lead frame 100 after the protrusion 101 is formed, and may be placed in a process appropriately selected depending on the material of the bonding material 200.

[0025] In the next third step (3), the semiconductor component 300 is aligned with respect to the lead frame 100. Here, alignment is performed so that the semiconductor component 300 overlaps the bonding material 200 and the side circumferential surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300 abuts against the protrusions 101. At this time, if the protrusions 101 are arranged on both sides of the bonding material 200, the semiconductor component 300 only needs to be arranged between the two protrusions 101, making alignment easy. Furthermore, since the protrusions 101 have a shape that moves away from the side circumferential surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300 toward their tip ends, the semiconductor component 300 can be easily guided between the protrusions 101 without the tip ends of the protrusions 101 getting caught on the semiconductor component 300.

[0026] Next, in the fourth step (4) shown in FIG. 6 , the semiconductor component 300 is placed on the die pad 100a of the lead frame 100 via the bonding material 200. In this state, the semiconductor component 300 is disposed between the protrusions 101. Therefore, for example, by using the protrusions 101 to hold down the semiconductor component 300, it is possible to prevent the semiconductor component 300 from falling off during transportation before the semiconductor component 300 is fixed. Furthermore, as shown in the figure, if the shape of the protrusions 101 is such that the middle portion in the rising direction of the piece is convex toward the side surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300, the semiconductor component 300 can be held down by this convex middle portion, thereby preventing the semiconductor component 300 from being damaged by the tip of the piece.

[0027] After the above steps, the bonding material 200 is heat-treated to fix the semiconductor component 300 to the die pad 100a of the lead frame 100. This results in the semiconductor device 1 shown in FIG. 1 being obtained. During this heat treatment, the bonding material 200 softens or melts and flows, covering the lower electrode 303 of the semiconductor component 300 with the bonding material 200. At this time, if the hole 100b has a shape that overlaps the edge of the lower electrode 303 of the semiconductor component 300 in a planar view, it is easy to confirm that the lower electrode 303 has been covered with the bonding material 200, as described above. On the other hand, if there is a problem with the wetting and spreading of the bonding material 200 onto the lower electrode 303 or if the amount of bonding material 200 is small, it is possible to confirm that the edge of the lower electrode 303 is exposed in the hole 100b.

[0028] <Effects of the first embodiment> The semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment described above has a configuration in which the lead frame 100 has the protrusion 101 facing the side peripheral surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300. This makes it possible to provide a semiconductor device 1 in which the semiconductor component 300 is accurately aligned with the lead frame 100, without requiring any special processing on the semiconductor component 300. This also makes it possible to provide the semiconductor device 1 with fewer steps and at lower cost than a semiconductor device in which processing for alignment is also performed on the semiconductor component 300.

[0029] <Variation 1> The semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment described above can be modified as follows. FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing a first modification of the semiconductor device of the first embodiment. In the semiconductor device 1" shown in FIG. 7, the semiconductor component 300' is not packaged in mold resin but is made up of a semiconductor chip. Even with this type of semiconductor device 1", the same effects can be obtained.

[0030] <Variation 2> 8 is a plan view showing a second modification of the semiconductor device of the first embodiment. As shown in these figures, the protrusions 101 provided on the lead frame 100 are arranged in various states relative to the side surfaces of the semiconductor component 300. For example, the semiconductor device 1a is an example of the first embodiment described above, and is an example in which the protrusions 101 of the lead frame 100 are arranged so as to sandwich the semiconductor component 300 from two directions.

[0031] Furthermore, the semiconductor device 1b is an example in which the protrusions 101 of the lead frame 100 are arranged so as to sandwich the semiconductor component 300 from four directions. With such a semiconductor device 1b, the semiconductor component 300 can be aligned with the lead frame 100 in two planar directions. Furthermore, in the manufacture of this semiconductor device 1b, before the reflow treatment of the bonding material 200 (see FIG. 6), the semiconductor component 300 placed on the lead frame 100 via the bonding material 200 can be prevented from falling off in four directions.

[0032] Furthermore, the semiconductor device 1c has a lead frame 100 on which a plurality of protrusions 101 are arranged on one side peripheral surface of the semiconductor component 300 facing one direction. The illustrated semiconductor device 1c illustrates a configuration in which two protrusions 101 are arranged on one side peripheral surface of the semiconductor component 300, but three or more protrusions 101 may be arranged. In this case, it is preferable to arrange the protrusions 101 at separate positions on one side peripheral surface. This makes it possible to prevent tilting of the semiconductor component 300 in the rotational direction when aligning the semiconductor component 300 with the lead frame 100. Even in this case, it is preferable to arrange the protrusions 101 at positions where the semiconductor component 300 is clamped.

[0033] Furthermore, the semiconductor device 1d has a semiconductor component 300 that is rectangular in plan view. In this case, the protrusions 101 are preferably provided on the shorter sides of the rectangular shape of the semiconductor component 300 at positions that sandwich the semiconductor component 300. This makes it possible to prevent tilting of the semiconductor component 300 in the rotational direction when aligning the semiconductor component 300 with the lead frame 100. Note that each of the above-described second variations can be similarly applied to the above-described first variation, and the same applies when a semiconductor component 300' made of a semiconductor chip is used.

[0034] <Examples of shapes of protrusions in semiconductor devices> 9 to 13 are cross-sectional views showing second to sixth examples of the protrusion in the semiconductor device of Embodiment 1. Hereinafter, examples of the shape of the protrusion in the semiconductor device of Embodiment 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0035] 9 differs from the protrusion 101 shown in Fig. 1 in that the piece that constitutes the protrusion 102 is bent at the middle in the direction rising from the lead frame 100, but the other configurations are the same. Even with this configuration, it is possible to obtain the same effects as in the first embodiment.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 10 , protrusion 103 may be a cutout of lead frame 100 that extends substantially perpendicularly from lead frame 100. Also, as shown in FIG. 11 , protrusion 104 may be a cutout of lead frame 100 that extends at an obtuse angle θ1 relative to lead frame 100. In either of the configurations shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 , when protrusions 103, 1045 are arranged to sandwich semiconductor component 300, the minimum width [W1] between protrusions 103 or 104 is set in consideration of the width [W3] of semiconductor component 300. This allows semiconductor component 300 to be aligned with lead frame 100 without any special processing of semiconductor component 300.

[0037] 12, the protrusions 105 may be formed by cutting out a portion of the lead frame 100 and raising the cut piece at an acute angle θ2 relative to the lead frame 100. In such a configuration, when the protrusions 105 are arranged so as to sandwich the semiconductor component 300, the minimum width [W1] between the protrusions 105 is set so as not to impede the fixation of the lead frame 100 and the semiconductor component 300 via the bonding material 200. Even with protrusions 105 of this shape, the semiconductor component 300 can be aligned with the lead frame 100 without any special processing being performed on the semiconductor component 300.

[0038] 13, the semiconductor component 300 may be disposed between protrusions 101 and 103 of different shapes. The protrusions 101 and 103 of different shapes may be replaced with any of the protrusions 102 to 105 shown in FIGS. 9 to 12. Even with this configuration, the semiconductor component 300 can be aligned with the lead frame 100 without any special processing of the semiconductor component 300. In this case, by using the protrusion 101 (and protrusion 102) having a shape that moves away from the side peripheral surface 300a of the semiconductor component 300 toward the tip side, it is possible to obtain the effect that the semiconductor component 300 can be easily guided between the protrusions 101 when aligning the semiconductor component 300 with the lead frame 100.

[0039] The above examples of the shapes of the protrusions can also be applied to the above-mentioned modified example 1 (FIG. 7) and modified example 2 (FIG. 8).

[0040] Second Embodiment 14 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the semiconductor device 2 of the second embodiment. The semiconductor device 2 shown in this figure differs from the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment in the cutout direction of the piece that constitutes the protrusion 101′ and the position of the resulting hole 100b′, but the other configurations are similar.

[0041] That is, the piece that constitutes the protrusion 101' is a portion obtained by cutting out the lead frame 100 from near the periphery of the semiconductor component 300 in a planar view, toward the outside of the semiconductor component 300. The cutout piece is raised toward the semiconductor component 300, in a direction approaching the semiconductor component 300, and constitutes the protrusion 101'. For this reason, the hole 100b' formed by cutting out the piece does not overlap with the semiconductor component 300 in a planar view, and is provided outside the semiconductor component 300.

[0042] The manufacturing method of the semiconductor device 2 of the second embodiment having such a configuration is similar to the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment.

[0043] The semiconductor device 2 configured as described above can also achieve the same effects as the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment. However, since the hole 100b' does not overlap with the semiconductor component 300 in a plan view, the wetting and spreading property of the bonding material 200 on the lower electrode 303 cannot be confirmed from the hole 100b'.

[0044] The second embodiment can also be applied to the above-described first modification (FIG. 7), second modification (FIG. 8), and each of the shape examples of the protrusions (FIGS. 9 to 13) of the first embodiment.

[0045] Third Embodiment 15 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a semiconductor device 3 of the third embodiment. The semiconductor device 3 shown in this figure has a configuration that combines the first and second embodiments. That is, the semiconductor device 3 has a protrusion 101 formed by cutting out the lead frame 100 from near the periphery of the semiconductor component 300 in a direction that overlaps with the semiconductor component 300 in a plan view, and a protrusion 101' formed by cutting out the lead frame 100 toward the outside of the semiconductor component 300. The configuration of each of the protrusions 101, 101' is the same as that of the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0046] The manufacturing method of the semiconductor device 3 of the third embodiment having such a configuration is similar to the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment.

[0047] Even with the semiconductor device 3 configured as above, it is possible to obtain the same effects as the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment.

[0048] The third embodiment is also applicable to the above-described first modification (FIG. 7), second modification (FIG. 8), and each of the shape examples of the protrusions (FIGS. 9 to 13) of the first embodiment.

[0049] Fourth Embodiment 16 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a semiconductor device 4 of the fourth embodiment. The semiconductor device 4 shown in this figure differs from the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment in that the protrusions 110 are formed by partial deformation of the lead frame 100, and the lead frame 100 does not have holes associated with the formation of the protrusions 110. As in the other embodiments, the protrusions 110 are provided facing the side peripheral surface of the semiconductor component 300.

[0050] The method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 4 of the fourth embodiment having such a configuration is the same as the method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 1 of the first embodiment except for the step of forming the protrusion 110.

[0051] Even in the semiconductor device 4 having such a configuration, the semiconductor component 300 can be aligned with the lead frame 100 without any special processing being performed on the semiconductor component 300.

[0052] In the fourth embodiment, the protrusion 110 is configured by partially deforming the lead frame 100. However, the protrusion 110 may be fixed onto the lead frame 100. The fourth embodiment is also similarly applicable to the above-described first modification (FIG. 7) and second modification (FIG. 8) of the first embodiment, and each of the shape examples of the protrusion (FIGS. 9 to 13).

[0053] Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments and modifications, and includes various other modifications. For example, the above-described embodiments have been described in detail to clearly explain the present invention, and are not necessarily limited to those including all of the described configurations. Furthermore, it is possible to replace part of the configuration of one embodiment with the configuration of another embodiment, or to add the configuration of another embodiment to the configuration of one embodiment. Furthermore, it is possible to add, delete, or replace part of the configuration of each embodiment with other configurations. [Explanation of symbols]
