Abstract

PURPOSE: To improve reliability, handling properties, manufacturing properties, and cooling efficiency, by metallographically joining the cathode electrode and the anode electrode of an MOS controlled power semiconductor element to a cathode side inner electrode and an anode side inner electrode. CONSTITUTION: A cathode electrode 303 and a collector electrode 304 of an Si substrate 301 are rigidly metallographically bonded to inner electrodes 307, 308. A gate electrode 309 arranged around an IGBT is connected with a gate terminal 311 through a wire. These are sealed with resin 313. The capacity of an IGBT is dependent also on the performance and the size of the Si substrate, and about 500-3000V and 50-300A. In the range of this capacity, application in this state is possible. Since the cathode electrode and the collector electrode of the IGBT are bonded to the inner electrodes 307, 308, heat can be made to escape from both sides. Thereby the thermal resistance and the reliability are improved and a wire bonding part is hardly deteriorated.

led Thyristor). The IGBT is disclosed in, for example, the electronic technology August 1991 pp. As shown in 17-71, it is voltage driven, and high speed operation is possible. Furthermore, since it is voltage control, the conventional GTO that is a current control element is used.
Compared with a thyristor, the ON voltage can be lowered, so that the loss of the element can be reduced. Further, the IGCT can further reduce the on-voltage and increase the current as compared with the IGBT. However, since it is difficult to increase the chip area of a MOS control type semiconductor such as IGBT or IGCT from the viewpoint of process yield, it is indispensable to connect the chips in parallel when high power switching is performed. It is essential.

Further, in the pressure contact type package structure, since the emitter side has a pressure contact structure, the chip temperature rises when current is applied in a pressurized state. As a result, the pressurizing electrode extends more than the IGBT chip, so that an eccentric load is likely to occur and the contact resistance is likely to change. In addition, handling of dust, misalignment, etc. is likely to cause problems. Further, since the pressurizing electrode is provided on the chip, the ratio of closing the chip area of the MOS control unit becomes small, and the current capacity per area becomes small.

In the structure of the present invention, since the electrodes on the main surfaces of both the anode and cathode of the semiconductor element substrate are metallurgically bonded to the internal electrodes, compared to the pressure contact structure in which an air layer is interposed at the interface, Can be sufficiently cooled and has low thermal resistance. Further, the unbalanced load phenomenon peculiar to the pressure contact structure hardly occurs, and the handling property such as dust and misalignment is not deteriorated. For example, in the case of the IGBT module to which the present invention is applied, the pressure dependence of VCE (saturation voltage) becomes extremely small. That is, the pressing force can be reduced. From the above, the structure of the present invention is advantageous for miniaturization and high reliability. Further, since it is resin-sealed, it can be used in a state in which an insulating plate is not connected, that is, a unit module as it is depending on the application.

Not only materials having a low coefficient of thermal expansion such as N, Cu-SiC, Cu-W, and Cu-Mo but also materials having a relatively large coefficient of thermal expansion such as Cu and Al can be used.

That is, in the case of a MOS control type semiconductor, since it is difficult to make the chip 3 cm square or more from the viewpoint of chip yield, the chip capacity is at most about 100 amperes, which is increased to several thousand amperes. Therefore, it is necessary to operate many chips at the same time. Therefore,
The conventional one-sided cooling type module has a considerably large size in consideration of cooling efficiency. Further, it is necessary to design the chip position, the terminal position, etc. according to the capacity and to evaluate the reliability of the manufactured module, which makes it difficult to make a series.
