Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to semiconductor devices. [Background technology]

[0002] Various configurations have been proposed for semiconductor devices equipped with semiconductor elements. Patent Document 1 discloses an example of a conventional semiconductor device. The semiconductor device disclosed in this document includes multiple leads, a semiconductor element, and a sealing resin. A semiconductor element (6) is mounted on a lead (3). Other leads (1, 2) different from the lead (3) on which the semiconductor element is mounted are arranged at a distance from the lead (3) in a direction (x) perpendicular to the thickness direction (z) of the lead (3). A sealing resin (8) covers each of the multiple leads and the semiconductor element, and is rectangular when viewed in the thickness direction (z).

[0003] The semiconductor device described in Patent Document 1 is surface-mounted on, for example, a circuit board of various devices. During use of the semiconductor device, the circuit board on which the semiconductor device is mounted may warp due to, for example, the influence of heat. When such deformation of the circuit board occurs, stress acts on the encapsulating resin and leads. If a large stress acts between the leads spaced apart from each other in the direction x in the encapsulating resin, there is a concern that the encapsulating resin may peel off from the leads or cracks may occur in the encapsulating resin.

The specific configuration of the conductive member 4 is not limited in any way, and examples thereof include wires and ribbons made of metal. Examples of metals constituting the conductive member 4 include metals such as Au (gold) and Al (aluminum), and alloys thereof. While the present embodiment illustrates an example in which one conductive member 4 is provided, a configuration in which two or more conductive members 4 are provided may also be used.

[0038] 10 is a diagram showing the circuit configuration of a semiconductor device A10 of this embodiment. The first semiconductor element 3A and the second semiconductor element 3B are connected in series in the opposite directions. In the configuration shown in the figure, even if a voltage higher than the breakdown voltage is applied in either direction between the first lead 1 and the second lead 2, a current flows through the first semiconductor element 3A and the second semiconductor element 3B at a constant voltage.

[0039] The sealing resin 5 covers a portion of each of the first lead 1 and the second lead 2, the first semiconductor element 3A and the second semiconductor element 3B, and the conductive member 4. The sealing resin 5 is made of, for example, a black epoxy resin.

[0040] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 7 to 9, the sealing resin 5 has a resin main surface 51, a resin back surface 52, a first resin side surface 531, a second resin side surface 532, a third resin side surface 533, and a fourth resin side surface 534. The resin main surface 51 and the resin back surface 52 face opposite each other in the thickness direction z and are spaced apart. The resin main surface 51 faces one side in the thickness direction z. The resin back surface 52 faces the other side in the thickness direction z. As shown in FIG. 7, a first back surface 102 of the first lead 1 and a second back surface 202 of the second lead 2 are exposed from the resin back surface 52 so as to be flush with the resin back surface 52.

[0041] Each of the first resin side surface 531, the second resin side surface 532, the third resin side surface 533, and the fourth resin side surface 534 is sandwiched between the resin main surface 51 and the resin back surface 52 and is connected to both the resin main surface 51 and the resin back surface 52. As shown in FIG. 7 , the first resin side surface 531 and the second resin side surface 532 face opposite each other in the first direction x and are spaced apart. The first resin side surface 531 faces one side in the first direction x. The second resin side surface 532 faces the other side in the first direction x. The second end surface 231 of the second lead 2 is exposed from the first resin side surface 531 so as to be flush with the first resin side surface 531. The first end surface 131 of the first lead 1 is exposed from the second resin side surface 532 so as to be flush with the second resin side surface 532.

[0042] As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 , the third resin side surface 533 and the fourth resin side surface 534 face opposite each other in the second direction y and are spaced apart. The third resin side surface 533 faces one side in the second direction y. The fourth resin side surface 534 faces the other side in the second direction y. From the third resin side surface 533, the first connecting portion end surface 141 of the first lead 1 and the third connecting portion end surface 241 of the second lead 2 are exposed so as to be flush with the third resin side surface 533. From the fourth resin side surface 534, the second connecting portion end surface 151 of the first lead 1 and the fourth connecting portion end surface 251 of the second lead 2 are exposed so as to be flush with the fourth resin side surface 534.

[0043] In Figures 7 and other figures, a cross section (first direction central cross section CS) of the sealing resin 5 equidistant in the first direction x from the first element side surface 301 of the first semiconductor element 3A and the second element side surface 302 of the second semiconductor element 3B is indicated by a dashed line. The first main portion 11 of the first lead 1 is located on the other side in the first direction x (left side in Figure 7) of the first direction central cross section CS. The second main portion 21 of the second lead 2 is located on one side in the first direction x (right side in Figure 7) of the first direction central cross section CS. The first main portion 11 and the second main portion 21 are spaced apart in the first direction x across the first direction central cross section CS. As shown in Figure 3, the first main portion 11 and the second main portion 21 are arranged symmetrically (bilaterally symmetrical in Figure 3) across the first direction central cross section CS when viewed in the thickness direction z. In this embodiment, the first tip surface 121 of the first extension portion 12 overlaps the first direction central cross section CS. Furthermore, the second tip surface 221 of the second extending portion 22 overlaps with the first direction central cross section CS. Here, the phrase "the first tip surface 121 (second tip surface 221) overlaps with the first direction central cross section CS" does not necessarily mean that the tip surface 121 (221) strictly overlaps with the first direction central cross section CS, but rather is a concept that includes errors that may occur due to the manufacturing precision of the leads 1 and 2 and the sealing resin 5. This also applies to modified examples described later with reference to FIG. 12 and subsequent figures.

[0044] Next, the effects of this embodiment will be described.

[0045] The semiconductor device A10 is used in a state where it is surface-mounted on a circuit board. FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view showing the state where the semiconductor device A10 is mounted on the circuit board 6. The semiconductor device A10 is joined to circuit wiring (not shown) formed on the circuit board 6, for example, via solder 7. In the semiconductor device A10, the first back surface 102 and the second back surface 202 are exposed from the sealing resin 5 as back surface terminals and are joined to the circuit wiring by the solder 7. In addition, the first end surface 131 and the second end surface 231 are exposed from the sealing resin 5 as terminals, and solder fillets 71 are formed between the first end surface 131 and the second end surface 231 and the circuit board.

[0046] The circuit board 6 on which the semiconductor device A10 is mounted may warp due to the influence of heat, etc. When warping occurs in the circuit board 6 such that both sides of the semiconductor device A10 in the first direction x are displaced to the other side in the thickness direction z (downward in FIG. 10), a relatively large stress acts on the sealing resin 5 in the first direction x in a portion between the first main portion 11 of the first lead 1 and the second main portion 21 of the second lead 2.

[0047] In the semiconductor device A10, the first lead 1 includes a first extension portion 12. The first extension portion 12 extends from a first main portion 11 located on the other side in the first direction x with respect to a first-direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5 to one side in the first direction x (the side where the second main portion 21 is arranged). With this configuration, stress can be reduced in the portion of the sealing resin 5 between the first main portion 11 and the first extension portion 12, and peeling of the sealing resin 5 from the leads 1 and 2 can be suppressed.

[0048] In the semiconductor device A10, the first tip surface 121 of the first extending portion 12 overlaps with the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5. With this configuration, the first extending portion 12 reaches the center of the sealing resin 5 in the first direction x, which is preferable in terms of suppressing peeling of the sealing resin 5 from the leads 1 and 2, etc.

[0049] In the semiconductor device A10, the second lead 2 includes a second extending portion 22. The second extending portion 22 extends from the second main portion 21 located on one side in the first direction x with respect to the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5 to the other side in the first direction x (the side where the first main portion 11 is located). By providing the second extending portion 22 in addition to the above-described first extending portion 12, stress can be further reduced in the portion of the sealing resin 5 between the first main portion 11 and the first extending portion 12. Therefore, peeling of the sealing resin 5 from the leads 1, 2, etc. can be effectively suppressed.

[0050] In the semiconductor device A10, the second tip surface 221 of the second extending portion 22 overlaps with the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5. With this configuration, the second extending portion 22 reaches the center of the sealing resin 5 in the first direction x, which is preferable in terms of suppressing peeling of the sealing resin 5 from the leads 1 and 2, etc.

[0051] The first extension portion 12 of the first lead 1 and the second extension portion 22 of the second lead 2 are located on one side and the other side of the second direction y as viewed in the first direction x. This arrangement of the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 makes it possible to prevent the first lead 1 (the first main portion 11 and the first extension portion 12) and the second lead 2 (the second main portion 21 and the second extension portion 22) from being excessively close to each other in the first direction x without increasing the distance between the first main portion 11 and the second main portion 21. Therefore, the semiconductor device A10 has a package structure that is preferable for increasing strength while suppressing an increase in package size and a decrease in withstand voltage.

[0052] The first lead 1 has a first concave surface 103 facing the opposite side in the thickness direction z. The first main portion 11 and the first extending portion 12 each include a portion of the first concave surface 103. The first concave surface 103 is covered with the sealing resin 5. The second lead 2 has a second concave surface 203 facing the opposite side in the thickness direction z. The second main portion 21 and the second extending portion 22 each include a portion of the second concave surface 203. The second concave surface 203 is covered with the sealing resin 5. This configuration prevents the first lead 1 (the first main portion 11 and the first extending portion 12) and the second lead 2 (the second main portions 21 and 22) from slipping out of the resin back surface 52 (the sealing resin 5). Therefore, the bonded state of the second electrodes 32 bonded to the first main surface 101 and the second main surface 201 is appropriately maintained.

[0053] The first semiconductor element 3A disposed on the first main surface 101 (first main portion 11) and the second semiconductor element 3B disposed on the second main surface 201 (second main portion 21) are the same type of element (Zener diode). Therefore, it is appropriate to arrange the first main portion 11 and the second main portion 21 supporting the first semiconductor element 3A and the second semiconductor element 3B symmetrically (bilaterally symmetrically in FIG. 3 ) across the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5 as viewed in the thickness direction z. In the semiconductor device A10, the first electrodes 31 of the semiconductor elements 3A and 3B are electrically connected by the conductive member 4. Meanwhile, the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 located between the first main portion 11 and the second main portion 21 are not connected to a conductive member (such as a wire) and do not function as an electrical conduction path. By intentionally providing such first extending portion 12 and second extending portion 22 between first main portion 11 and second main portion 21, the semiconductor device A10 has a package structure with increased strength.

[0054] Figures 12 and 13 show a semiconductor device according to a first modified example of the first embodiment. Figure 12 is a plan view similar to Figure 3 shown in the above embodiment. Figure 13 is a front view of the semiconductor device shown in Figure 12. In Figures 12 and subsequent figures, elements that are the same as or similar to those in the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment are given the same reference numerals as in the above embodiment, and descriptions thereof will be omitted where appropriate.

[0055] In the semiconductor device A11 of this modification, the shapes of the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 are different from those of the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment. In this modification, both the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 are rectangular when viewed in the thickness direction z. The first extension portion 12 has a part of the first main surface 101, a part of the first concave surface 103, and a first tip surface 121. The first tip surface 121 is located on the other side in the first direction x (the left side in FIG. 12 ) of the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5. The second extension portion 22 has a part of the second main surface 201, a part of the second concave surface 203, and a second tip surface 221. The second tip surface 221 is located on one side in the first direction x (the right side in FIG. 12 ) of the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5.

[0056] In the semiconductor device A11 of this modification, the first lead 1 also includes a first extension portion 12. The first extension portion 12 extends from the first main portion 11 located on the other side in the first direction x with respect to the first-direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5 to one side in the first direction x (the side where the second main portion 21 is located). This reduces the area in the sealing resin 5 between the first main portion 11 and the first extension portion 12 where large stress acts, even if warping occurs in the circuit board on which the semiconductor device A11 is mounted. This reduces the area in the sealing resin 5 where large stress acts, and thus prevents the sealing resin 5 from peeling off from the leads 1 and 2. In addition, within the same range of configuration as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment, the same effects as those of the above embodiment are achieved.

[0057] 14 and 15 show a semiconductor device according to a second modification of the first embodiment. Fig. 14 is a plan view similar to Fig. 3 shown in the above embodiment. Fig. 15 is a front view of the semiconductor device shown in Fig. 14.

[0058] In the semiconductor device A12 of this modification, the shapes of the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 differ from those of the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment. In this modification, the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 do not have a first intermediate surface 123 or a second intermediate surface 223, and each has a shape that combines a rectangular portion and a concave curved portion when viewed in the thickness direction z. The first extension portion 12 has a portion of the first main surface 101, a portion of the first concave surface 103, a first tip surface 121, and a first curved surface 122. The first tip surface 121 overlaps the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5. The second extension portion 22 has a portion of the second main surface 201, a portion of the second concave surface 203, a second tip surface 221, and a second curved surface 222. The second tip surface 221 overlaps the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5.

[0059] In the semiconductor device A12 of this modification, the first lead 1 also includes a first extending portion 12. The first extending portion 12 extends from the first main portion 11 located on the other side in the first direction x with respect to the first-direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5 to one side in the first direction x (the side where the second main portion 21 is located). This reduces the area in the sealing resin 5 between the first main portion 11 and the first extending portion 12 where large stress acts, even if warping occurs in the circuit board on which the semiconductor device A12 is mounted. This reduces the area in the sealing resin 5 where large stress acts, and thus prevents the sealing resin 5 from peeling off from the leads 1 and 2. In addition, within the same range of configuration as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment, the same effects as those of the above embodiment are achieved.

[0060] 16 and 17 show a semiconductor device according to a third modification of the first embodiment. Fig. 16 is a plan view similar to Fig. 3 shown in the above embodiment. Fig. 17 is a front view of the semiconductor device shown in Fig. 16.

[0061] In the semiconductor device A13 of this modification, the shape of the first extension portion 12 differs from that of the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment. The semiconductor device A13 does not have the second extension portion 22 of the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment. In this modification, the first extension portion 12 is rectangular when viewed in the thickness direction z. The first extension portion 12 has a part of the first main surface 101, a part of the first concave surface 103, and a first tip surface 121. The first tip surface 121 overlaps with the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5.

[0062] The semiconductor device A13 of this modified example also achieves the same effects as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment within the scope of the same configuration as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment.

[0063] 18 and 19 show a semiconductor device according to a third modification of the first embodiment. Fig. 18 is a plan view similar to Fig. 3 shown in the above embodiment. Fig. 19 is a front view of the semiconductor device shown in Fig. 18.

[0064] In the semiconductor device A14 of this modification, the shapes of the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 are different from those of the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment. In this modification, both the first extension portion 12 and the second extension portion 22 are rectangular when viewed in the thickness direction z. The first extension portion 12 has a part of the first main surface 101, a part of the first concave surface 103, and a first tip surface 121. The first tip surface 121 is located on one side in the first direction x (the right side in FIG. 18 ) of the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5. The second extension portion 22 has a part of the second main surface 201, a part of the second concave surface 203, and a second tip surface 221. The second tip surface 221 is located on the other side in the first direction x (the left side in FIG. 18 ) of the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5.

[0065] The semiconductor device A14 of this modified example also achieves the same effects as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment within the scope of the same configuration as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment.

[0066] In the semiconductor device A14, the first extension portion 12 extends from the first main portion 11 located on the other side of the first direction x with respect to the first direction central cross section CS, penetrates the first direction central cross section CS, and extends to one side of the first direction x beyond the first direction central cross section CS. The second extension portion 22 extends from the second main portion 21 located on one side of the first direction x with respect to the first direction central cross section CS, penetrates the first direction central cross section CS, and extends to the other side of the first direction x beyond the first direction central cross section CS. The semiconductor device A14 configured in this way has a more preferable package structure in terms of increasing strength.

[0067] 20 and 21 show a semiconductor device according to a fifth modification of the first embodiment. Fig. 20 is a plan view similar to Fig. 3 shown in the above embodiment. Fig. 21 is a front view of the semiconductor device shown in Fig. 20.

[0068] In the semiconductor device A15 of this modification, the shapes and arrangements of the first extension portions 12 and the second extension portions 22 differ from those of the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment. In this modification, the first lead 1 includes a plurality of first extension portions 12 (two in the illustrated example). The second lead 2 includes a plurality of second extension portions 22 (two in the illustrated example). The plurality of first extension portions 12 and the plurality of second extension portions 22 are both rectangular when viewed in the thickness direction z. When viewed in the first direction x, the first extension portions 12 and the second extension portions 22 are alternately arranged along the second direction y. Each of the plurality of first extension portions 12 has a part of the first main surface 101, a part of the first concave surface 103, and a first tip surface 121. The first tip surface 121 overlaps the first direction central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5. Each of the plurality of second extending portions 22 has a part of the second main surface 201, a part of the second concave surface 203, and a second tip surface 221. The second tip surface 221 overlaps with the central cross section CS of the sealing resin 5 in the first direction.

[0069] The semiconductor device A15 of this modified example also achieves the same effects as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment within the scope of the same configuration as the semiconductor device A10 of the above embodiment.

[0070] The semiconductor device according to the present disclosure is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and the specific configuration of each part of the semiconductor device according to the present disclosure can be freely modified in various ways.

[0071] In the above embodiment, the semiconductor device A10 and the like are packaged in a QFN format, but the package format of the semiconductor device is not limited to this. The semiconductor device of the present disclosure may also be applied to a QFP (Quad Flat Package) in which leads protrude from the side surfaces of the sealing resin.

[0072] In the above embodiment, the first back surface 102 of the first main portion 11 and the second back surface 202 of the second main portion 21 are exposed from the sealing resin 5 and function as back surface terminals, but the present invention is not limited to this. The first back surface 102 and the second back surface 202 may not function as back surface terminals.
