摘要:
A semiconductor device in which a pellet and external leads are connected by bonding wires made of aluminum containing a predetermined amount of at least one additive element, the bonding wires containing 0.05 to 3.0 weight % of at least one element selected from the group consisting of iron and palladium, or containing 0.05-3.0 weight % of at least one first element selected from the group consisting of nickel, iron and palladium and 0.05-3.0 weight % of at least one second element selected from the group consisting of magnesium, manganese and silicon, whereby the corrosion resistance of the wire is increased and the breaking strength of the wire is enhanced. The bonding wires can be connected to the semiconductor pellet by a ball bond, and it is disclosed that using a ball having a Vickers hardness of 30-50 enables good bonding of the bonding wire to, e.g., an aluminum pad on the semiconductor pellet to be achieved. A ball having such hardness can be provided by using specific aluminum alloy compositions and by a quenching of the ball. The bonding wire has the shape and height of its loop controlled by annealing the bonding wire at a specified temperature before bonding or by employing a specified composition for the material of the bonding wire. The loop shape and bondability of the bonding wire, which can be made of aluminum or an aluminum composition containing, e.g., about 1.5 weight % of magnesium, are controlled into the best states.

When a resin-sealed type semiconductor device having a heat dissipating plate is mounted on a mounting plate by means of screws or the like, means are provided to prevent occurrence of cracks in the resin sealing portion and semiconductor circuit elements embodied therein. To this end, the resin body, heat dissipating plate or mounting plate is thickened at portions thereof where screw receiving apertures are formed. Alternatively, washer or the like member may be employed.

The present invention concerns a semiconductor device and a process for producing semiconductor device, as well as a wire bonding device used therefor.In accordance with the present invention, a ball formed at the top end of a bonding wire is sphericalized by electric discharge within a reducing gas atmosphere at a high temperature from 100.degree.

A semiconductor device is fabricated by placing a semiconductor chip with at least one bonding pad on the bonding stage of a wire bonder. A coated wire on a spool is passed through a bore in a bonding capillary so that one end of the wire projects from the lower tip of the capillary. An electrical arc discharge is created between the wire tip projecting from the capillary and a discharge electrode by applying a first electric potential to this wire tip through the opposite end of the wire and applying a second electric potential to the electrode. A ball is formed on the end of the wire and this ball is bonded to the pad with the lower tip of the capillary.

A heat spreader for a semiconductor device is constituted by an integral laminate of alternatingly stacked and diffusion-bonded Fe-Ni alloy sheets and copper-group metal sheets, the laminate having a one-directional stripe pattern of the Fe-Ni alloy sheets and the copper-group metal sheets, which appears on a planar surface on which a silicon chip is disposed. It is produced by (a) alternatingly stacking Fe-Ni alloy sheets and copper-group metal sheets, (b) hot isostatic-pressing the resulting stack of the metal sheets to form a slab, (c) rolling the slab vertically to the laminating direction of the metal sheets to form an integrated stripe-pattern laminate, and (d) cutting the integrated stripe-pattern laminate to a predetermined shape.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a wire bonding method and a wire bonding apparatus employing a coated wire in which the surface of the metal wire is coated with an insulator, and a semiconductor device produced by the bonding method. The present invention includes forming a metal ball on the front end of the coated wire, e.g., by arc discharge; joining the metal ball to an external terminal of a semiconductor chip; bringing the rear end of the coated wire into contact with an external lead and destroying the insulator coating where the coated wire contacts the lead; and joining the metal wire at the rear end of the coated wire to the lead. The metal wire is connected to a common ground with the bonding device, during the arc discharge, and the wire is positive relative to the discharge electrode. Moreover, the melting and shrinking insulator of the coated wire is blown away, and insulator globes can be prevented from being formed in the coated wire, so that bonding defects are avoidable.
