Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the shape of metal terminals of electronic components, and particularly relates to EMI technology for suppressing electromagnetic noise radiation in the high-frequency range.
Background Art
[0002] Recently, with the increasing speed of electronic devices, high-frequency signals are also being used in the electronic components used therein, and there is a trend towards lower voltages for power reduction.
[0003] Among these electronic components, there are chip capacitive components, chip resistors, chip inductors, etc. called chip components in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and SMD (Surface Mount Device) packages are used as packages, each having metal terminals.
[0004] When high-frequency currents flow inside these electronic components, electromagnetic noise is radiated from the metal terminals associated with packages such as SMDs to the outside of the electronic components, causing EMI (Electromagnetic Interference).
[0005] In addition, due to further high-frequencyization in the future, electromagnetic noise radiated from metal terminals associated with packages such as SMDs tends to increase, and there is concern that it may affect surrounding members, devices, and the environment.
[0006] Furthermore, due to the current trend of reducing energy consumption, there is also a problem that devices are more susceptible to the influence of electromagnetic noise because they operate at low voltages.
[0007] As a countermeasure, circuit design has considered methods such as SSC (Spread Spectrum Clock) to disperse and suppress EMI electromagnetic noise, but there is a challenge in that there is no method that takes into account the shape of the metal terminals attached to packages such as SMD.
[0008] Furthermore, regarding these electromagnetic noises, the need to use gaskets and other materials extensively to protect the device casing increases the overall cost of the device and the amount of materials used, which presents another challenge. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0014] In this way, it becomes possible to suppress electromagnetic noise radiation generated from the metal terminals of electronic components, and in particular, it becomes possible to suppress the total electromagnetic noise radiation from the terminals of chip components that are mounted in large numbers on printed circuit boards of computer equipment and other devices. This makes it possible to prevent the effects of electromagnetic noise on electronic equipment that is susceptible to external noise due to low voltage for energy saving purposes. Furthermore, it leads to a reduction in the amount of EMI countermeasures components such as gaskets used in electronic equipment, as well as cost reductions. This contributes to CO2 reduction through low voltage and efficient use of resources by reducing EMI countermeasures components, thus contributing to the SDGs. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0016] Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0017] In the description of the drawings, the same reference numerals are assigned to the same elements, and duplicate descriptions are omitted. In addition, the drawings are for the purpose of understanding, and the actual dimensional ratios do not necessarily match the actual ones. Also, an electronic component called a chip component is a rectangular parallelepiped defined by width, length, and height, has metal terminals on both sides, has a surface for soldering to metal pads such as printed wiring boards at the lower parts of the metal terminals on both sides, and when arranged so that the metal terminals can be seen from the left and right and the surface for soldering the metal terminals is arranged at the lower part, the width refers to the length in the left - right direction, and the length refers to the length in the depth direction (front - back direction). In addition, when the metal terminals are arranged so that they can be seen from the left and right and the metal terminals are viewed from above, the thickness of the metal terminals indicates the length of the metal terminal part from the center to the outermost ends on both sides of the metal terminals on both sides.
[0018] Figure 1 shows a top view and a front view of one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1(a) is a top view, and Figure 1(b) is a front view.
[0019] In the top view and front view of Figure 1, an electronic component 1, called a chip component, has one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3, and in the top view, the electronic component 1 has a first width (W1) as its vertical width when viewed from above. In the front view, the height of electronic component 1 when viewed from the side is the first height (H1). It has.
[0020] In the top view of Figure 1, the outer circumferences of the two metal terminals on both sides are in the shape of a semicircular arc. The radius (R1) of the arc of one of the metal terminals 2 in the top view, The radius (R2) of the arc of the other metal terminal 3 in the top view is, This value is half the first width (W1) of electronic component 1.
[0021] In the front view of Figure 1, when the electronic component 1 is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, the outer circumference of the upper part of the two metal terminals on both sides is a quarter-circular arc. The radius (R3) of the upper quarter circle of one of the metal terminals 2 in the front view, The radius (R4) of the upper quarter circle of the other metal terminal 3 in the front view is This value is equivalent to the first height (H1) of electronic component 1. The first height (H1) of the electronic component 1 is half the first width (W1) of the electronic component 1.
[0022] Furthermore, in the front view of Figure 1, the lower metal surface of one metal terminal 2 and the lower metal surface of the other metal terminal 3 are connected to a metal pad on a printed circuit board or the like by soldering.
[0023] Now, let's consider impedance mismatch.
[0024] Figure 13 is a schematic diagram of impedance mismatch caused by corner wiring in a wiring pattern.
[0025] Figure 13 shows the different types of bends required when bending wiring patterns on printed circuit boards and the like.
[0026] Figure 13(a) shows the case where the wiring pattern bends at a 90° angle. Figure 13(b) shows the case where the wiring pattern bends twice at a 45° angle. Figure 13(c) shows the case where the wiring pattern bends along an arc.
[0027] In the case of Figure 13(a), the impedance changes significantly at the corner because it is turned at a 90° right angle. In this case, the current waveform becomes distorted, resulting in a waveform distortion called reflection, which tends to worsen electromagnetic noise such as EMI.
[0028] In Figure 13(b), the corner wiring is bent twice at 45° angles instead of 90°, which mitigates the change in impedance at the corner compared to the case of 90°.
[0029] In the case of Figure 13(c), the corner wiring is in an arc, so the impedance change at the corner is further mitigated than in the case of 45°.
[0030] Therefore, in corner wiring, 45° wiring results in less impedance change than 90° wiring, and arc-shaped wiring results in less impedance change than 45° wiring, thus improving electromagnetic noise such as EMI.
[0031] Next, we will explain the case where electromagnetic noise radiation from metal terminals is not considered, referring to Figure 12.
[0032] Figure 12 shows a top view and a front view of a terminal structure that does not consider electromagnetic noise. It shows a top view and a front view including the terminal structure of a chip component with metal terminals at both ends, without considering electromagnetic noise. Figure 12(a) is a top view, and Figure 12(b) is a front view.
[0033] In the top view and front view of Figure 12, an electronic component 1, called a chip component, has one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3.
[0034] In the top view of Figure 12, the two metal terminals on both sides are rectangular, and in the front view of Figure 12, the two metal terminals on both sides are also rectangular, with each of the two metal terminals on both sides forming a rectangular parallelepiped.
[0035] In this case, the metal terminal has a structure in which the right-angle portion of the rectangular parallelepiped protrudes outward. This causes a change in impedance at this right-angle portion, and when high-frequency currents flow, it can potentially generate a large amount of electromagnetic noise such as EMI. Furthermore, even if the outside of the metal terminal of the chip component is not a right angle but an arc structure, the structure does not maximize the radius of the arc, but rather has a small radius, which can also potentially generate a large amount of electromagnetic noise such as EMI. In addition, the surface area of the metal is also large, which can potentially generate a large amount of electromagnetic noise such as EMI. As a result, the structure is not effective in preventing radiated noise.
[0036] Based on the verification of impedance mismatch due to corner wiring and the verification of the front view and front view of the terminal structure without considering electromagnetic noise, the electronic component having arc-shaped metal terminals in the top view and front view of the present invention has the effect of suppressing electromagnetic noise such as EMI.
[0037] Next, other embodiments will be described with reference to the figures.

[0039] In the top view and front view of Figure 2, an electronic component 1, called a chip component, has one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3, and in the top view, the electronic component 1 has the first width (W1) as its vertical width, and in the front view, the electronic component 1 is It has a second height (H2) in addition to its width.
[0040] In the top view of Figure 2, the outer circumferences of the two metal terminals on both sides are semicircular arcs, which is equivalent to the top view of Figure 1.
[0041] Here, in the front view of Figure 2, Assuming that the second height (H2) of electronic component 1 is less than half the first width (W1) of the electronic component, When the aforementioned electronic component 1 is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, The tops of the two metal terminals on both sides are curved. The radius (R5) of the upper arc of one of the metal terminals 2 as viewed from the side, The radius (R6) of the upper part of the other metal terminal 3, as viewed from the side, This value is half the first width (W1) of the electronic component 1.
[0042] Furthermore, in the front view of Figure 2, the lower metal surface of one metal terminal 2 and the lower metal surface of the other metal terminal 3 are connected to a metal pad on a printed circuit board or the like by soldering.
[0043] Thus, in the top view, the outer edges of one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3 are semicircular arcs, and in the plan view, the upper parts of one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3 are arcs, which makes it possible to suppress electromagnetic noise such as EMI.

[0048] Here, in the front view of Figure 3, Assuming that the second height (H2) of electronic component 1 is less than half the first width (W1) of the electronic component, When the aforementioned electronic component is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, The tops of the two metal terminals on both sides are elliptical arcs. Each metal terminal is, It has a portion that is 1 / 4 of the ellipse's area when the ellipse is cut along its minor and major axes. When the aforementioned electronic component is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, The metal terminal has a minor axis of an ellipse containing an elliptical arc in the height direction, The length of the major axis (L1) of the ellipse containing the upper elliptical arc of the one metal terminal 2 as viewed from the side, The length of the major axis (L2) of the ellipse containing the upper elliptical arc of the other metal terminal 3, as viewed from the side, Equal to the first width (W1) of the aforementioned electronic component, The length of the minor axis (S1) of the ellipse containing the upper elliptical arc of the one metal terminal 2 as viewed from the side, The length of the minor axis (S2) of the ellipse containing the upper elliptical arc of the other metal terminal 3, as viewed from the side, This value is twice the second height (H2) of the aforementioned electronic component.
[0049] In this case, a circle (a perfect circle or a regular circle) is included as a part of the ellipse, and a circular arc is also included as a part of the elliptical arc.
[0050] Furthermore, in the front view of Figure 3, the lower metal surface of one metal terminal 2 and the lower metal surface of the other metal terminal 3 are connected to a metal pad on a printed circuit board or the like by soldering.
[0051] Thus, in the top view, the outer periphery of one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3 are semicircular arcs, and in the plan view, the upper part of one metal terminal 2 and the upper part of the other metal terminal 3 are elliptical arcs, which makes it possible to suppress electromagnetic noise such as EMI.

[0055] In the top view of Figure 4, the outer circumferences of the two metal terminals on both sides are semicircular arcs, which is equivalent to the top views of Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3.
[0056] Here, in the front view of Figure 4, Assuming that the second height (H2) of electronic component 1 is less than half the first width (W1) of the electronic component, When electronic component 1 is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, The upper part of the aforementioned metal terminal 2 is in an arc shape. The upper part of the other metal terminal 3 is elliptical, The other metal terminal 3 is, It has a portion that is 1 / 4 of the ellipse's area when the ellipse is cut along its minor and major axes. When the aforementioned electronic component is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, The other metal terminal 3 has an ellipse containing an elliptical arc with a minor axis in the height direction, The radius (R5) of the upper arc of one of the metal terminals 2, as viewed from the side, This value is half the first width (W1) of the aforementioned electronic component.

[0061] In the top view and front view of Figure 5, an electronic component 1, called a chip component, has one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3. In the top view, the electronic component 1 has the second width (W2) as its vertical width when viewed from above, and in the front view, the electronic component 1 has the first height (H1) as its height. In the metal terminal diagram of Figure 5, when the configuration of one metal terminal 2 in the top view of Figure 5 is considered separately, it is shown that one metal terminal 2 is composed of a semicircular portion 4 and a rectangular portion 5 of the metal terminal. Similarly, the other metal terminal 3 is composed of a semicircular portion and a rectangular portion. In this case, at the connection between the semicircular portion 4 and the rectangular portion 5 of the metal terminal in Figure 5, the tangent to the arc of the semicircular portion 4 and the orientation of the side of the rectangular portion 5 coincide, so there is no ridge between the semicircular portion 4 and the rectangular portion 5 of the metal terminal in Figure 5.
[0062] In the front view of Figure 5, when the electronic component 1 is viewed from the side so that the two metal terminals on both sides are visible, the upper parts of the two metal terminals on both sides form a quarter-circular arc, which is equivalent to the front view of Figure 1.
[0063] Here, in the top view of Figure 5, Assuming that the second width (W2) of electronic component 1 is less than twice the first height (H1) of the electronic component, Considering the size, it is not possible to form a semicircular metal terminal on the upper surface between one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3 such that the radius is equal to the first height (H1) of the electronic component 1.

[0065] Furthermore, in the front view of Figure 5, the lower metal surface of one metal terminal 2 and the lower metal surface of the other metal terminal 3 are connected to a metal pad on a printed circuit board or the like by soldering.

When viewed from above, each metal terminal occupies half the area of its respective ellipse.
[0073] Now, comparing the metal terminals in Figure 5 and Figure 6, The metal terminals on both sides of Figure 5 are composed of a combination of a semicircular section and a rectangular section when viewed from above. The metal terminals on both sides of Figure 6 have an elliptical arc when viewed from above.
[0074] In this case, the difference in shape between the combination of the semicircular and rectangular parts and the elliptical arc, The difference between the radius of the arc in a semicircle and the lengths of the major and minor axes in an elliptical arc, Due to differences in the surface area of the metal terminals on both sides in Figure 5 and the metal terminals on both sides in Figure 6, The frequency and intensity of the radiated noise will vary.
[0075] Furthermore, in the front view of Figure 6, the lower metal surface of one metal terminal 2 and the lower metal surface of the other metal terminal 3 are connected to a metal pad on a printed circuit board or the like by soldering.
[0076] Thus, in the top view, one metal terminal 2 and the other metal terminal 3 are in the shape of an elliptical arc, and in the plan view, the upper part of one metal terminal 2 and the upper part of the other metal terminal 3 are in the shape of a circular arc, which makes it possible to suppress electromagnetic noise such as EMI.
[0077] Furthermore, other embodiments will be described with reference to the figures.
[0078] Figure 7 shows a top view and a front view in another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 7(a) is a top view, and Figure 7(b) is a front view.

[0082] Here, in the top view of Figure 7, When the aforementioned electronic component 1 is viewed from above, The outer circumference of one of the metal terminals 2 has a shape that combines a semicircular section and a rectangular section. The radius (R7) of the arc of the semicircular portion of one of the metal terminals 2, as viewed from above, is This value is half the second width (W2) of the aforementioned electronic component. The length (T1) of one side connected to the tangent to the arc in the rectangular portion of one metal terminal 2 as viewed from above is: This value is obtained by subtracting half the second width (W2) of the electronic component from the first height (H1) of the electronic component.
