Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates a protection circuit device using MOSFET and method of manufacturing the same, particularly enabling to build in a secondary battery and carrying out battery management.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- As the spread of pocketable terminal, small lithium ion battery having large capacity is desired. A protection circuit device carrying out battery management of charge-discharge of the lithium ion battery must be smaller and sufficiently resist to short of load. As such protection circuit device is built in vessel of lithium ion battery, miniaturization is required, and freely using COB (Chip on Board) technique using many chip parts meets require of miniaturization. However on the other hand, as switching element is connected to lithium ion battery in series, it is needed to make ON-state resistance of the switching element extremely small. This is indispensable factor to lengthen talking time or stand-by time in pocket telephone.
- A protection circuit carrying out concrete battery management is shown in
FIG. 19 . Two power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 are connected to a lithium ion battery LiB in series to detect voltage of the lithium ion battery LiB with a control IC. The detection carries out on-off control of the two power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2, and the lithium ion battery LiB is protected from over-charge, over-discharge, or load short. The power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 connect drain electrodes D in common, source electrodes S are arranged respectively at both ends thereof, and gate electrode G of each MOSFETs is connected to the control IC. - At charge, a power source is connected to ends of the circuit, and charge current is applied to the lithium ion battery LiB to arrow direction so as to charge. When the lithium ion battery LiB becomes over-charge state, voltage is detected by the control IC, gate voltage of the power MOSFET Q2 becomes L (low level) from H (high level), and the power MOSFET Q2 becomes off and cuts the circuit so as to protect the lithium ion battery LiB.
- At discharge, both ends of the circuit are connected to a load and operation of a pocketable terminal till designated voltage. However when the lithium ion battery LiB becomes over-discharge state, voltage is detected by the control IC, gate voltage of the power MOSFET Q1 becomes L from H, and the power MOSFET Q1 becomes off and cuts the circuit so as to protect the lithium ion battery LiB.
- Moreover at load shot or over-current, much current flows the power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 so that voltage of both ends of the power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 suddenly rises. Because of that, the voltage is detected by the control IC, and similarly at discharge the power MOSFET Q1 becomes off and cuts the circuit so as to protect the lithium ion battery LiB. However as large current flows at short time till the protection circuit operates, it is required that peak drain rash current flows much to the power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2.
- As two N-channel type power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 are connected to the lithium ion battery LiB in series in the protection circuit, low-ON-state resistance (RDS(on)) of power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 is most required point. Therefore development raising sell density by fine pitch machining at manufacturing the chip is driven forward.
- In detail, although sell density was 7.4 million per a square inch and ON-state resistance was 17 mΩ in planer structure that a channel is formed on a semiconductor substrate surface, at first generation of trench structure forming a channel at side face of trench, sell density is extremely improved in 25 million per a square inch and ON-state resistance is decreased in 27 mΩ. Further in second generation of the trench structure, sell density is 72 million per a square inch and ON-state resistance is decreased in 12 mΩ). However making fine has limit, and there is a limit to decrease ON-state resistance extremely.

Although circuit parts shown inFIG. 19 are mounted actually, the parts are not shown all in the figure. Aconductive path 2 comprising-copper foil is formed on both face of aninsulating board 1, and has multilayer interconnection where theconductive paths 2 of upper face and lower face of the board are connected through through-hole (not shown) at desired position.Power MOSFETs terminals gate terminal 7 connected to a gate electrode and asource terminal 8 connected to a source electrode go out.Symbol 9 is a control IC,symbol 10 are chip capacitors corresponding to C1 to C3 ofFIG. 19 , andsymbol 11 are chip resisters corresponding to R1 and R2 ofFIG. 19 .Symbols FIG. 19 . The external terminals are fixed onpads 14 formed at part of theconductive path 2 by solder. Although the protection circuit device is formed in a suitable shape to put in the case of the lithium ion battery, miniaturization is the largest problem for fundamental needs. -

A drain electrode is formed by gold lining electrode (not shown) on lower face of thebare chip 23 of the power MOSFET, and on upper face, a gate electrode and a drain electrode are formed by deposition of Aluminum. As connected to aheader 21, a drain terminal of the frame is connected to the drain electrode directly, and the gate electrode and the source electrode are electrically connected to agate terminal 7 and asource terminal 8 by ball bonding usinggold bonding wire 24. Therefore ON-state resistance of power MOSFET is influenced ON-state resistance existing in frame material, preform material, material for the bonding wire, and electrode material of the source electrode on the upper face of the chip for decreasing ON-state resistance. -
FIG. 22 andFIG. 23 are plan view describing the prior art decreasing ON-state resistance devising bonding wire.FIG. 22 is a view where current capacity is improved by increasing thebonding wire 24 connecting the source electrode and thesource electrode 8 to four wires. FurtherFIG. 22 is a view where current capacity is improved by increasing thebonding wire 24 connecting the source electrode and thesource electrode 8 to four wires, two short wires and long two wires, and where resistance of the source electrode is decreased by broadening bonding portion to the source electrode. - Difference of ON-state resistance depending on the conventional mounting structure of power MOSFET is completed in

These figures show, in the case that bonding wires is changed to combination of two short wires and two long wires from four short wires, decrease of ON-state resistance of 1.33 mΩ, from 13.43 mΩ to 12.10 mΩ, however changing solder to Ag paste can not decrease ON-state resistance. - However a present state is that small, light weight pocketable terminal and long life of built-in battery thereof are more strongly required. In the sate, there is a problem that useful solving means breaking down mounting structure of protection circuit device using power MOSFET, realizing low ON-state resistance, and realizing small protection circuit device using MOSFET is not found out.

On entire back face of thesemiconductor substrate 334, adrain electrode 333 is provided by deposition of Au/Cr and so on. - The
source electrode 331 and thegate electrode 332 of the power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 are arranged symmetrically with respect to center line Y-Y of the chip as clear fromFIG. 2A , thesource electrodes 331 are provided at most part of thesemiconductor substrate 334, thegate electrodes 332 are provided symmetrically with respect to line largely separated at corner portions of thesemiconductor substrate 334. This is for easy fixing to the conductive path corresponding by flip chip method. - The

FIG. 3 . - In
FIG. 3 , a mounting structure is shown. That is, aconductive path 32 formed by desired copper foil or conductive paste so that the circuit shown inFIG. 19 is realized on an insulatingboard 31 formed by glass epoxy board or ceramic board is provided. On theconductive path 32,MOSFET chip 33 is fixed, and atleast MOSFET chip 33 is covered by said insulatingresin 34. - In the mounting structure, two
source electrodes 331 and twogate electrode 332 of theMOSFET chip 33 are contacted to a plural ofconductive paths conductive paste 35. On adrain electrode 333 of theMOSFET chip 33, solder or theconductive paste 35 fixes aconductive metal plate 36 such as copper. Theconductive metal plate 36 is provided in order to decrease ON-state resistance of power MOSFET Q1 and Q2 of theMOSFET chip 33 connected in series, and has an object too to improve radiation characteristic. Therefore forming by only solder orconductive paste 35 instead of theconductive metal plate 36 can achieve the object to decrease ON-state resistance. - For the insulating
resin 34, thermosetting resin such as epoxy resin and thermoplastic resin such as polyimide resin and polyphenylenesulfide are used. All kinds of resin are used if they are resins hardening using a die and covering by dipping and painting. - As the
MOSFET chip 33 is fixed to theconductive path 32 by flip chip method in the mounting structure, it is not need to take thedrain electrode 333 of theMOSFET chip 33 out so that the structure without using bonding wire is thin and expensive. - Great characteristic of the mounting structure is to especially take conductive paths 21B and 21C out directly from the source electrode by flip chip method without bonding using bonding wire. Because of that, as clear from
FIG. 18 , in the invention, ON-state resistance of Sample C is 8.67 mΩ and ON-state resistance of Sample D is 8.74 mΩ. Resistance of both samples is improved about 30% comparing with ON-state resistance 12.10 mΩ of Sample B by the conventional wire bonding. At the same time, loop necessary for bonding wire is removed so as to make the insulating resin 20 thin as much as the loop. - Second mode for carrying out describing a protection circuit device using a MOSFET
- A mounting structure of the second mode for carrying out of the protecting circuit device using MOSFET of the invention is described referring
FIG. 4 . -
FIG. 4 shows a mounting structure. That is, aconductive path 41 is buried in an insulatingresin 40, on said conductive path 41 aMOSFET chip 33 is fixed, and theconductive path 41 is supported by said insulatingresin 40. - The mounting structure comprises the
MOSFET chip 33, a plural ofconductive paths conductive metal plate 36, and the an insulatingresin 40 burying theconductive paths conductive paths 41, atrench 42 filled with the insulatingresin 40 is provided. Saidconductive paths 41 are supported by the insulatingresin 40. - For the insulating
resin 34, thermosetting resin such as epoxy resin and thermoplastic resin such as polyimide resin and polyphenylenesulfide are used. All kinds of resin are used if they are resins hardening using a die and covering by dipping and painting. - For the
conductive resin 41, a conductive foil of Cu as a main material, a conductive foil of Al as a main material, or a conductive foil comprising alloy of Fe—Ni and so on is used. Of course other conductive material is possible, especially conductive material enable to etch and evaporate by laser are desirable. - The
MOSFET chip 33 where the power MOSFET Q1 and Q2 are integrated in one chip is a semiconductor bare chip having asource electrode 331 and agate electrode 332 at front face thereof, and at entire back face, having adrain electrode 333. A concrete structure of theMOSFET chip 33 is described inFIG. 2 , therefore description is omitted here - In connection of
MOSFET chip 33, for thesource electrode 331 and thegate electrode 332 are fixed to designatedconductive paths conductive paste 35 such as Ag paste, at adrain electrode 333 of back face, aconductive metal plate 36 is fixed by brazing material such as solder and aconductive paste 35 such as Ag paste. Theconductive metal plate 36 is provided in order to decrease on-state resistance of power MOSFET Q1 and Q2 of theMOSFET chip 33 connected in series, and has an object too to improve radiation characteristic. Therefore forming by only solder orconductive paste 35 instead of theconductive metal plate 36 can achieve the object to decrease ON-state resistance. Connection of theconductive metal plate 36 to the otherconductive path 41 is not need. - In the mounting structure, as the insulating
resin 40 being sealing resin supports theconductive path 41, a supporting board is not necessary. Therefore the structure consists of theconductive path 41,MOSFET chip 33, theconductive metal plate 36, and the insulatingresin 40, consists of necessary minimum elements so that the structure is thin and expensive. - The mounting structure has merit that each of the
conductive paths 41 is insulated by insulatingresin 40 as the insulatingresin 40 covers theMOSFET chip 33 and fills into saidtrench 42 between saidconductive paths 41 so as to have function supporting in one body. - Great characteristic of the mounting structure is to especially take the
conductive paths source electrode 331 by flip chip method without the conventional bonding using bonding wire. Because of that, as clear fromFIG. 18 , in the mounting structure of the invention, ON-state resistance of Sample C (case taking out by solder) is 8.67 mΩ and ON-state resistance of Sample D (case taking out by silver paste) is 8.74 mΩ. Resistance of both samples is improved about 30% comparing with ON-state resistance 12.10 mΩ of Sample B by the conventional wire bonding. At the same time, loop necessary for bonding wire is removed so as to make the insulatingresin 40 thin as much as the loop. - In the mounting structure, front face of the insulating
resin 40 filled into thetrench 42 and front face of theconductive path 41 are substantially in coincidence. Because of that, at mounting the mounting structure on a printed board, the structure is automatically self-aligned as the structure can rise by surface tension of brazing material such as solder and move horizontally. - Third mode for carrying out describing a protection circuit device using MOSFET
- Next, a third mounting structure of the protection circuit device using MOSFET of the invention is described referring
FIG. 12 . - In the mounting structure, a
conductive film 37 is formed on front face of aconductive path 41, and excepting that, the structure is substantially same as the structure ofFIG. 4 . Therefore theconductive film 37 is described. - First characteristic is a point that the
conductive film 37 is provided to prevent bending of a conductive path or a circuit device. - Generally the mounting structure itself bends and the conductive path curves and peel off by difference of coefficient of thermal expansion between insulating resin and conductive path material (called first material hereafter). As thermal conductivity of the
conductive path 41 is superior than thermal conductivity of the insulating resin, theconductive path 41 expands previously by temperature rise. Because of that, covering a second material smaller coefficient of thermal expansion than the first material can prevent bending and peeling off of the conductive path and bending of the mounting structure. Especially in case of using Cu for the first material, Au, Ni, or Pt is good for the second material. Coefficient of expansion of Cu is 16.7×10−6, Au is 14×10−6, Ni is 12.8×10−6, and Pt is 8.9×10−6. - Second characteristic is a point that the structure has anchor effect by the second material. Eaves are formed by the second material, further as the
eaves 38 fixing to theconductive path 41 are buried in the insulatingresin 40, anchor effect appears so as to prevent theconductive path 41 removing. - First mode for carrying out describing a method for manufacturing a protection circuit device using MOSFET
- Next, first method for manufacturing a protection circuit device using MOSFET is described referring
FIG. 5 toFIG. 11 , andFIG. 4 . - First, as
FIG. 5 a sheet-shapedconductive foil 50 is provided. Material of theconductive foil 50 is selected considering fix ability of brazing material, bonding ability, and plating ability. For the material, a conductive foil of Cu as a main material, a conductive foil of Al as a main material, or a conductive foil comprising alloy such as Fe—Ni and so on is used. - Considering later etching, thickness of the conductive foil is 10 μm to 300 μm desirably, here copper foil of 70 μm (2 oz.) is adopted. However the thickness of more than 300 μm or less than 10 μm is fundamentally available. As described later, the thickness is good when the
thinner trench 42 than thickness of theconductive foil 50 is formed. - The sheet-shaped
conductive foil 50 rolled in roll shape with designated width or the conductive foil cut in designated size may be transferred to each later-mentioned process. - Next, there is a process removing the
conductive foil 50 excepting at least area becoming theconductive path 41 thinly than thickness of theconductive foil 50. There is a process covering thetrench 42 and with an insulatingresin 40 and theconductive foil 50 formed by the removing process. - First, a photo resist (etching-resist mask) PR is formed on a
Cu foil 50, and is patterned so that theconductive foil 50 excepting at least area becoming theconductive path 41 exposes (ReferFIG. 6 about the above.) The conductive foil is etched through said photo resist PR (ReferFIG. 7 about the above.) - Depth of the
trench 42 formed by etching is 50 μm for example, and the side thereof is coarse face so that adhesiveness to the insulatingresin 40 is improved. - Although the side wall of the
trench 42 is shown in straight schematically, the structure differs depending on method of removing. For the process, wet etching and dry etching are used. In the case of wet etching, for enchant, ferric chloride or cupric chloride is mainly used, and said conductive foil is dipped into the enchant or showered by the enchant. Here, as the conductive foil is generally etched non-anisotropically, thetrench 42 of inner part than an opening spreads, and the side face of thetrench 42 becomes curved structure being side-etched. - In the case of dry etching, both etchings of anisotropy and non-anisotropy are possible. Although it is said impossible to remove Cu by reactive ion etching, by using sputtering method, Cu can be removed easily. Depending on sputtering condition, both etchings of anisotropy and non-anisotropy can be carried out.
- In
FIG. 6 , a, conductive film having etching-tolerant against etching liquid may be selectively covered instead of the photo resist. By selectively covering a part where the conductive path is to be formed with the conductive film, the conductive film acts as an etching protection film and therefore the trench can be formed without using resist. Material for the conductive film is Ag, Au, Pt, or Pd. Moreover the etching-tolerant conductive film can be bonded easily and therefore can be used as die pad and bonding pad alone. - Next, a
MOSFET chip 33 is mounted on theconductive path 41 made of theconductive foil 50 separated by thetrench 42. -
MOSFET chip 33 is a semiconductor bare chip having asource electrode 331 and agate electrode 332 at front face thereof, and at entire back face, having adrain electrode 333. Pattern recognition is carried out by chip mounting apparatus facing thesource electrode 331 and thegate electrode 332 to lower side, and theMOSFET 33 is fixed by flip chip method with brazing material such as solder or theconductive paste 35 contacting the each electrode to theconductive paths - A
conductive metal board 36 comprising copper is fixed on adrain electrode 333 provide at the back face of theMOSEET chip 33 by brazing material such as solder or the conductive paste 25. As only thedrain electrode 333 exist at the back face of theMOSFET chip 33, theconductive metal plate 36 does, not short with other electrode. As connection of theconductive metal plate 36 and theconductive path 41 is not necessary, it is possible to mount easily with rough positioning using different-shaped parts mounter. - Further as shown in
FIG. 9 . There is a process fixing the insulatingresin 40 on saidconductive foil 50 and thetrench 42. This is realized by transfer mould, injection mould, or dipping. For the insulatingresin 34, thermosetting resin such as epoxy resin is realizes by transfer mould, and thermoplastic resin such as polyimide resin and polyphenylenesulfide is realized by injection mould. - In the mode for carrying out, thickness of the insulating
resin 40 covered by surface of theconductive foil 50 is adjusted so as to cover about 100 μm from top portion of the circuit element. It is possible to make thickness thick or thin considering strength. - Characteristic of the process is that the
conductive foil 50 becoming theconductive path 41 functions as a supporting board till covering the insulatingresin 40. Although the conductive path is formed using the supporting board in the past, theconductive foil 50 functioning as the supporting board is material necessary as electrode material in the invention. Therefore the invention has merit to operate making composition material as few as possible, and can realize reduction of cost. - As the
trench 42 is formed thinly than thickness of the conductive foil, theconductive foil 50 is not separated individually as theconductive path 41. Therefore the conductive foil is handled in one body as the sheet-shapedconductive foil 50, and the structure has characteristic that operation of transfer to die and mounting on die is very easy. - Next, there is a process removing the back face of the
conductive foil 50 chemically and/or physically and separating as theconductive path 41. Here the process is carried out polishing, grinding, etching, and metal evaporation of laser. - In experiment, entire face is ground about 30 μm by polisher or grinder so that the insulating
resin 40 is exposes from thetrench 42. The face is shown inFIG. 9 with dotted line. As the result, theconductive path 41 is separated as aconductive path 41 of about 40 μm. After entire face of theconductive foil 50 is wet-etched till just before the insulatingresin 40 exposes, entire face may be grounded by polisher or grinder so as to expose the insulatingresin 40. Further entire face of theconductive foil 50 is wet-etched till position of dotted line, and the insulatingresin 40 may be exposed. - As the result, in the structure, surface of the
conductive path 41 exposes on the insulatingresin 40. After that, theconductive foil 50 is ground and becomes thetrench 42. (ReferFIG. 9 about the above.) - Finally covering conductive material such as solder on the
conductive path 41 exposing at the back face of the insulatingresin 40, the mounting structure is completed. - In the case of covering the conductive film on the back face of the
conductive path 41, the conductive film may be formed previously at the back face of the conductive foil ofFIG. 5 . In this case, a part corresponding to the conductive path may be covered selectively. Method of covering is plating for example. For the conductive film, material resisting to etching is desirable. In the case of using the conductive film, theconductive path 41 can be separated only by etching without polishing. - In the above-mentioned description of the method for manufacturing, although
MOSFET 33 is described selectively as a circuit part, actually many circuit parts necessary for the protection circuit device of the invention are mounted on theconductive foil 50 shown inFIG. 10 includingmatrix shape MOSFET 33. -
FIG. 10 shows a plan view of a board of theconductive foil 50 after forming thetrench 42. The board has size of 45 mm×60 mm, theconductive path 41 is formed at the hatching part, and the separatedpart 42 is formed at the white part. Therefore part becoming the mounting structure is arranged in matrix shape, 3row 8 line, and index marks 511 and index holes using in process are provided at periphery thereof. Foe example, dicing lines are controlled at center of the index marks comprising two lines provided both ends of the board. -
FIG. 11 is an enlarged plan view of a board of oneconductive foil 50 ofFIG. 10 . AMOSFET chip 33 is fixed onconductive paths control IC 9 is fixed to theconductive path 41 at center portion thereof, and at theconductive path 41 of periphery of the IC, chip capacitors corresponding to C1 to C3 ofFIG. 19 and chip resistors corresponding to R1 and R2 of theFIG. 19 are fixed using a chip mounter. - External terminals shown at four corners with LP1, LP2, LP3, and LP4 correspond to terminals LP1 , LP2, LP3, and LP4 shown in
FIG. 19 . - Therefore many protection circuit device of the invention formed on the board of the
conductive foil 50 shown inFIG. 10 become an individual protection circuit device using MOSFET by cutting at a part of the insulatingresin 40 of thetrench 42 on dicing line shown with one dot chain line to directions of X axis and Y axis using dicing machine. In such the protection circuit device of the invention, the back face of theconductive path 41 is connected to the conductive path of the printed board by brazing material such as solder in order to use. - By the above-mentioned method for manufacturing, the conductive path, 41 is buried in the insulating
resin 40 so as to realize the mounting structure of the protection circuit device using flat MOSFET where the back face of the insulatingresin 40 and the back face of theconductive path 41. - Characteristic of the method for manufacturing is that operation of separating the
conductive path 41 can be carried out using the insulatingresin 40 as a supporting board. The insulatingresin 40 is a necessary material for material burying theconductive path 41, and the supporting board is not need like the conventional method for manufacturing. Therefore the method has characteristic to manufacture with minimum material and to realize reduction of cost. - Thickness of insulating resin from surface of the conductive path is adjusted at fixing of the insulating resin of front process. As the
MOSFET chip 33 is fixed on theconductive path 41 by flip chip method in the invention, bonding wire is excluded. Therefore depending on thickness of theMOSFET chip 33 mounted, the mounting structure has characteristic that thickness thereof is extremely made thin. Here the mounting structure is buried in the insulatingresin 40 of about 400 μm thick with theconductive path 41 of 40 μm thick and theMOSFET chip 33 of about 200 μm thick. (ReferFIG. 4 about the above.) - Second mode for carrying out describing a method for manufacturing a protection circuit device using MOSFET
- Next, a method for manufacturing a mounting structure of a protection circuit device using MOSFET having eaves is described referring
FIG. 12 andFIG. 13 toFIG. 17 . Except covering asecond material 60 becoming eaves, the structure is substantially same as the first mode for carrying out so that concrete description is omitted. - First as shown in
FIG. 13 , aconductive foil 50 covered on the aconductive foil 50 comprising a first material with thesecond material 60 which is small in etching rate is provide. - For example when Ni is covered on Cu foil, Cu and Ni are etched at one time by ferric chloride or cupric chloride, and difference of etching rate forms Ni in shape of
eaves 38 so that it is suitable. Thick solid line is theconductive film 60 comprising Ni, thickness thereof is desirable to be 1 to 10 μm. The thicker the thickness of the film of Ni, the more easily the eaves is formed. - The second material may cover material selectively etching with the first material. In this case, by patterning a film comprising the second material so as to cover at forming area of a
conductive path 41 and by etching a film comprising the first material using the film comprising the second material,eaves 38 is formed. For the second material, Al, Ag, and Au are considered. (ReferFIG. 13 about the above.) - The processes are the following: forming photo resist PR on
Ni 60, patterning the photo resist so that Ni except area becoming theconductive path 41 exposes, and etching through said photo resist. - As above-mentioned, when etching is carried out using enchant of ferric chloride and cupric chloride,
eaves 38 appears as advance of etching. - The following processes are same as the above-mentioned method for manufacturing: a process mounting the
MOSFET 33 on theconductive foil 50 forming said trench 42 (FIG. 16 ), a process covering saidconductive foil 50 and thetrench 42 with the insulatingresin 40 removing the back face of theconductive foil 40 chemically and/or physically, and separating as the conductive path 41 (FIG. 17 ), and a process forming the conductive film at the back face of the conductive path to complete (FIG. 12 ). Therefore the description is omitted. - Further the separating (dicing) step can be performed by forming notches having a predetermined depth in the insulating resin by using a dicing saw, and then separating respectively by using the notches as scribe line.
- As clear from the above description, by leading out of the chip to a conductive path on a conductive pattern on circuit board, instead of long wiring(leading) within a chip, the invention consists of minimum elements: the MOSFET chip integrating power MOSFETs Q1 and Q2 in one chip, the conductive path, the conductive metal plate, and the insulating resin. The construction is a mounting'structure of protection circuit device using MOSFET useful for resource. Therefore the mounting structure of the protection circuit device using MOSFET not having extra components till completion and reducing cost extremely.
- Further, since a conductive path separated by an insulating resin embedded into a trench is used, fine pattern with high accuracy can be obtained and connecting reliability is very high. A thickness of the pattern being the conductive path for a whole thickness of the package, can be made large and therefor wiring resistance can be reduced very much. Therefore MOSFET chip can be mounted directly with flip-chip with high accuracy.
- As the MOSFET chip is directly fixed on the conductive path by flip chip method, especially taking-out resistance from the source electrode to the conductive path is removed so as to reduce ON-state resistance 30% comparing with the conventional mounting structure. Connecting common drain electrode of the MOSFET within a chip is not necessary so as to realize extremely simple mounting structure.
- In the mounting structure of the protection circuit device using MOSFET of the invention, bonding wire is not need, and by making thickness of film of the insulating resin and thickness of the conductive foil optimum value, height of the structure is made very thin less than 0.5 mm, and at the same time small, light mounting structure is realized.
- As only the back face of the conductive path exposes from the insulating resin, the back face of the conductive path instantly connects to outside without using the back face electrode and the through-hole needed in the conventional structure.
- As the front face of the trench and the front face of the conductive path of the mounting structure has substantially fitting flat front face and the circuit device itself is moved alone horizontally by surface tension of solder at narrow pitch QFP mounting, correction of lead shift becomes very easy.
- Because the second material is formed at front side of the conductive path, bend of the mounting board, particularly bend of long and thin conductive path or peeling off is depressed by difference of coefficient of thermal expansion.
- By forming the film comprising the second material on the front face of the conductive path, the eaves covered by the conductive path is formed. Therefore the eaves(visors) can cause anchor effect, and prevent bend of the conductive path and slipping out of the insulating resin.
- In the method for manufacturing the protection circuit device using the MOSFET of the invention, the conductive foil itself becoming material of the conductive path functions as the supporting board, the conductive foil supports the whole till forming the trench or mounting of MOSFET and covering the insulating resin. At separating the conductive foil as each conductive path, the insulating resin functions as the supporting board. Therefore the protection circuit device is manufactured by necessary minimum of the MOSFET chip, the conductive foil, the insulating resin. By that the supporting board is not need, the conductive path is buried in the insulating resin, and adjusting thickness of the insulating resin and the conductive foil and bonding wire is not need, a very thin mounting structure of the protection circuit device using MOSFET is realized.
- Next, as the conductive path is handled without separating individually till the process removing thinly than thickness of the conductive foil (half-etching for example), many MOSFET chips are manufactured integrating on extremely small board so that operating ability is improved.
- As the conductive path and the insulating resin form the same plan, the both are able to shift without touching side face of the conductive path on the mounting board at mounting. Especially in the case that the both are mounted with shifted position, it is possible to re-arrange shifting to horizontal direction. If brazing material is melted after mounting, the device mounted with shift aims to return itself to upper portion by surface tension of melted brazing material so that re-arrangement by the device itself is possible.
