続の構造に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a semiconductor device, and particularly relates to a connection structure between an electrode terminal and a normal line on a substrate, preferably an electric contact terminal for attaching a large number of lead terminals for external extraction to a semiconductor element, and wiring on a substrate. It concerns the structure of connections.

提案されている。While various methods have been proposed for electrically connecting the electrodes of semiconductor devices and the lead wires to the outside of the container, conventional wires that use thin conductive wires and adhere to the points to be connected to each other have been proposed. Instead of the bonding method, extend the lead wire inside the container, or attach a continuous foil ribbon of metal material to the tape surface made of flexible electrically insulating material, and make a large number of leads from the metal foil. For example, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 47, there is a method in which the ends of the protrusions are tapered to form a protrusion (bump) on the electrode terminal of the semiconductor device to form an adhesive end sufficient for direct adhesion, and the end is simultaneously connected to the electrode terminal (bump). This method is proposed in Publication No.-3206.

いられ。The above connection method involves covering a copper-based lead with tin,
One method involves creating a gold/tin eutectic alloy using heat between the bumps whose surface is covered with gold, and the other involves covering a copper-based lead with gold and applying heat between it and the gold bumps. There is a thermocompression connection method that connects by pressure. Gold/gold is used in semiconductor devices that are bonded by thermocompression and require high reliability as a metal structure.

53号公報で提案されている。Since the method of connecting using thermocompression bonding applies both heat and pressure, 1. bumps with strong mechanical strength are required; 1. A bump structure with improved mechanical strength was developed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 51-1472.
This is proposed in Publication No. 53.

要さなる。This is a method in which bumps are configured in a stepwise manner, and the relaxation of stress concentration during bonding is considered from a cross-sectional perspective, and has a certain effect. However, in order to sufficiently prevent the destruction of the substrate or the insulating film on the substrate due to stress concentration, it is necessary to consider the stress distribution viewed from the plane of the substrate. It is important because it exists.
このことは応力分布すなわち応力集中の形態が機械的の
みならず熱的な要因にも関係することを考えれば、十分
念頭に置かなければならない。This must be kept in mind since the stress distribution, that is, the form of stress concentration, is related not only to mechanical factors but also to thermal factors.

ドの熱圧着の際かえられる熱と。The width is determined, and the distance between the wiring of a constant width and the bump to be connected is as short as possible, and the connection portion is connected to the bump portion while maintaining the width of the thin wiring layer. For this reason, when a semiconductor device with a conventional wiring layer and bump connection structure is actually connected to the leads and bumps by thermocompression bonding and a tensile fracture strength test is performed to confirm the connection strength, it is determined that the failure mode is Breakage occurred in the silicon substrate and insulating film at the bottom of the connection between the bump and the internal wiring layer. This is because stress is concentrated at this connection,
The joints may be mechanically weakened due to changes over time due to thermal stress, etc., which is undesirable from a reliability standpoint. While simplifying the design and eliminating the above drawbacks, the heat can be replaced during thermocompression bonding of leads.
圧力に充分耐える新規なるバンプと配線の接続構造を提
供することにある。The object of the present invention is to provide a new bump-to-wiring connection structure that can sufficiently withstand pressure.

もとづいて行なうことができる。The presence of the stress relaxation region allows the effects of heat and stress to be alleviated. Furthermore, since the region is rectangular in plan view, the provision of the region does not substantially reduce the overall degree of integration, and the mask design can be performed based on standard criteria. .
以下図面に基すいて本発明を説明する。The present invention will be explained below based on the drawings.

Also, here 100 is the bump part, and 200
is the internal wiring layer. A lead (not shown) with a steel base and gold plating on the surface is placed on top of the thick film metal 6 of this bump, and when heat and pressure are applied, the gold on the lead surface and the thick film gold 6 are bonded by thermocompression. Joined. Lead from this bonded semiconductor device with a tensilon gauge.
半導体装置主面に対し垂直方向に引張り、破壊試験を行
ない、5f4度、及び破壊モードを調べた。A destructive test was performed by pulling in a direction perpendicular to the main surface of the semiconductor device, and the 5f4 degree and failure mode were investigated.

5倍発生した。As a reference for the substrate used in this experiment, a bump with the same shape as in Figure 1 without any wiring was installed in the same semiconductor device, and the rate of destruction of the silicon substrate at the bottom of the bump was investigated under the same bonding conditions. Ta. As a result, in the destruction mode, 2.
It occurred 5 times more.
本欠陥の発生はリファレンスバンプとの比較から配線及
び、その接続部による影響は明らかである。From comparison with reference bumps, it is clear that the occurrence of this defect is influenced by the wiring and its connections.

た。A detailed observation of the fractured silicon substrate at the bottom of the bump in the tensile fracture test revealed that the fracture occurred at the intersections 7 and 8 between the outer periphery of the bump and both ends of the wiring.

れた構造では、熱圧着に際し加えられる熱と圧力に関し
、配線部には、熱による歪が加わることが考えられる。The heat and pressure applied during bonding are generated by the pressure applied to the bump area. The fact is that concentrated stress and heat-induced strain can destroy the silicon substrate at the bottom of the connection between the bump and the wiring layer, and in a structure where the wiring is connected to the bump, the heat and pressure applied during thermocompression bonding may cause damage to the wiring. It is thought that distortion due to heat is added.
すなわち配線層は導電体であることから、熱伝導率も良
く。In other words, since the wiring layer is a conductor, it has good thermal conductivity.

大きな温度勾配が発生し、この温度勾配により、配線の
下層の基板に歪(熱歪)が、配線の長手方向に特に大き
く発生する。又、熱は。The heat applied during bonding is transmitted through the wiring, creating a large temperature gradient between the wiring, the insulation film below the wiring layer, and the underlying silicon substrate. Strain (thermal strain) is particularly large in the longitudinal direction of the wiring. Also, the heat.

よる歪に配線部からの熱による歪が、複合されて基板に
クラックが発生し、破壊強度試験で、このクラックが核
となり、基板破壊が発生するものと考えられる。The present invention was achieved based on the recognition that since the damage is added to the wiring through the bump, the maximum amount of damage occurs in the wiring near the bump, particularly at the connection between the bump and the wiring. In other words, at the connection between the bump and the wiring, the strain caused by the pressure from the bump, the strain caused by the heat, and the strain caused by the heat from the wiring part are combined to cause a crack in the board, and in a destructive strength test, this crack becomes the core. It is thought that substrate destruction will occur.

である。Based on the above logic, the structure of the bump-to-wiring connection portion according to the present invention solves the problem of substrate destruction caused by stress concentration and thermal strain without changing the wiring or bump formation process.

なっている。A comparison experiment was conducted using the structure of the prior art and the experimental method described above, and the result was that the rate of silicon substrate breakage at the bottom of the bump was 1.5 in the prior art, but 1 in this example. It has been found that even if the stress relaxation region is provided in a straight line or in a planar step-like manner, it is highly effective against thermal strain.

This is an example in which the shape, that is, the region Lll is not step-like, and such a structure may be used depending on the allowable stress. That is, in this embodiment, the bump portion 150 is made of a first layer 53 of titanium, platinum, and a thin second layer 55 of gold thereon.
