Definitions
- the disclosure relates to semiconductor devices, and more specifically to an improved arrangement of a chip having a die with leads attached to both surfaces of the die and extending from the housing that encapsulates the die.
- leads are attached to both surfaces of a die.
- the attachment of the leads to the die’s conductive pad on the bottom surface can be accomplished by placing a first lead over a conductive pad of the die and forming a conductive connection, for example by soldering. This can be done with multiple leads and per die or dies simultaneously prior to the leads/die(s) being separated from the lead frame. Connection of one or leads to the conductive pad on a second (top) surface of the die is then carried out individually (/.e., typically not at the same time as other second leads are placed and attached) and in a more complex manner as compared to the placing and attaching of the first lead.
- the second leads may also be multipart.
- a system that incorporates a controller and one or more such semiconductor devices.
- a method for manufacturing one or more semiconductor devices includes attaching a first side of each of at least one die to a respective paddle of a lead- frame strip, and attaching a second side of each of the at least one die to a respective paddle of a clip- frame strip.
- a method for manufacturing one or more semiconductor devices includes attaching a first side of each of at least one die to a respective paddle of a lead- frame strip, and attaching a second side of each of the at least one die to a respective paddle of a clip- frame strip.

- FIG. 1A is an isometric view of packaged semiconductor device, here an NMOS power transistor 100 having a package 102, according to an embodiment.
- the power transistor 100 is suitable for many applications such as being one of the output transistors of a switching power supply (not shown in FIG. 1A).
- the package 102 includes an optional drain pad 104, which also can be configured as a heat sink, drain leads 106 coupled to the drain pad 104, source leads 108, a gate lead 110, and a housing 112. At their ends opposite to the optional drain pad 104, the drain leads 106 may be electrically tied together.
- VGS is greater than Vcs(th) and VDS is greater than VGS - Vcs(th)
- the NMOS transistor 100 operates in its saturation region, during which the value of IDS is proportional to (VGS - Vcs(th)) 2 (many applications of the NMOS transistor call for configuring circuitry that includes the NMOS transistor such that the NMOS transistor operates in its saturation region).
- the inherent body diode 130 may conduct a source-to-drain current if the source-to-drain voltage VSD is greater than the body diode’s threshold, or “turn-on,” voltage Vth.
- the body diode 130 may conduct a source-to-drain current ISD for a relatively brief period during a discharge of a phase inductor of a switching power supply such as a buck converter.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional transparent side view of a conventional NMOS power transistor 200, which includes a die 202, a lead-frame paddle 204, a first lead 206, a second lead 208 having an internal portion 210 and an external portion 212, and a housing 214.
- the second lead 208 is placed over, and attached to, a conductive pad (not shown in FIG. 2) on a second side (here a top) of the die 202 individually (i.e., typically not at the same time as other second leads are placed and attached) and in a more complex manner as compared to the placing and attaching of the first lead 206.
- the internal portion 210 of the second lead 208 is attached (typically soldered) to a conductive pad on the upper side of the die 202. But if the die 202 and internal portion 210 are rotated relative to one another in a plane parallel to the die 202, or are otherwise misaligned, even by a relatively small amount, during the placing and attaching process, the resulting transistor 200 can be rendered unsuitable for use, and, therefore, can be discarded or “failed.”
- the external portion 212 of the second lead 208 is placed and attached, by soldering or welding, to the internal portion, thus forming an attachment joint 216.
- the attachment joint 216 is an additional point of potential failure.
- placing and attaching second leads 208 individually is time consuming and, therefore, reduces the throughput (/.e., the number of semiconductor devices per unit time) of a process for manufacturing the transistor 200.
- the volume occupied by the attachment joint 216 reduces, within the housing 214, the area available for the die 202 and, therefore, limits the maximum size of a die that the housing can accommodate for a given footprint of the transistor 200.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional transparent side view of an NMOS power transistor 300, which includes a die 302, a lead-frame paddle 304, a first lead 306, a second lead 308, and a housing 314, according to an embodiment.
- the second lead 308 which, unlike the second lead 208 of FIG. 2, is a single piece (a single member) attached to a clip frame (not shown in FIG. 3), which facilitates placement of the second lead over a conductive pad (not shown in FIG. 3) on a second side (here a top) of the die 302 and attachment (typically by soldering) of the second lead to a conductive pad (not shown in FIG. 3) on the second side of the die. It is only after placing and attaching of the second lead 308 to the conductive pad on the second side of the die that the second lead is separated from the clip frame. Furthermore, because other second leads also are attached to the clip frame, multiple second leads can be attached to respective conductive pads on the second side of the die at the same time.
- the second lead 308 is a single member, it can be less prone to causing errors than the multi-member lead 208 of FIG. 2. Furthermore, because the second lead 308 is attached to a clip frame during placing and attaching the second lead to the top side of the die, there can be fewer rotational and other misalignment errors, at least one fewer potential failure point (e.g., because there is no attachment joint such as the joint 216 of FIG. 2), the housing 314 can accommodate a larger die 302 than the housing 214 (FIG. 2), and the process for manufacturing the transistor 300 can be more reliable than the process for manufacturing the transistor 200 of FIG. 2. In addition, because multiple second leads 308 can be attached to the die 302 at the same time, the process for manufacturing the transistor 300 can be faster (/.e., higher throughput), less expensive, and/or less complex than a process for manufacturing the transistor 200 of FIG. 2.
- the first lead 306 extends from a plane at or near a top (non-mounting) side 307 of the housing 314, bends (upwardly in FIG. 3) at a first bend 306a, has a directed (upwardly in FIG. 3) extension portion 306b, prior to bending outwardly to form a contact area 306c, which is generally aligned with a bottom (mounting) side 309 of the housing 314.
- the second lead 308a which extends out of an opposite side of the housing 314 from the first lead 306, also includes a first bend 308a (an upward bend in FIG. 3) to extend (upwardly in FIG.
- FIG. 4A is a plan view of a lead-frame strip 400, according to an embodiment.
- FIG. 4B is a plan view of a clip-frame strip 402, according to an embodiment.
- FIG. 4C is a plan view of the clip-frame strip 402 disposed over, and aligned with, the lead-frame strip 400, according to an embodiment.
- the clip-frame strip 402 is placed over the die-populated lead-frame strip 400 and is aligned with the lead-frame strip using alignment holes or other alignment markings 410.
- the lead-frame strip 400 and the clip-frame strip 402 are moved toward one another such that the lead-frame strip and the clip-frame strip “sandwich” the dies.
- paddles 412 of the clip-frame strip 402 contact the tops of the dies (not shown in FIGS. 4A-4C) such that conductive pads on the tops of the dies are conductively coupled (e.g., by soldering) to leads 414 of the clip-frame strip.
- the dies and portions of the leads 408 and 414 are encapsulated in a housing (not shown in FIGS. 4A-4C, but similar to the housings 1000 of FIG. 10) made from a suitable material, such as epoxy or ceramic, to form semiconductor chips.
- the semiconductor chips are separated from the lead- and clip-frame strips 400 and 402.
- the lead-frame and clip-frame strips permit multiple semiconductor chips to be formed simultaneously, the cost, complexity, and/or manufacturing time per chip can be reduced relative to a process in which the leads 208 (FIG. 2) are individually placed and coupled to pads on a semiconductor die.
- the lead-frame and clip-frame strips 400 and 402 are shown as accommodating twenty-four dies, the lead-frame and clip-frame strips can be configured to accommodate any suitable number of dies, such as thirty two, sixty four, two hundred fifty six, or five hundred twelve.
- the lead-frame strip can include any suitable number (e.g., twelve, sixteen, thirty two, forty eight, sixty four, seventy two, ninety six, one hundred twenty, one hundred twenty eight, one hundred forty four, one hundred sixty eight, one hundred ninety two, two hundred sixteen, two hundred forty, and two hundred fifty six) of paddles configured to accommodate any suitable number (e.g., twelve, sixteen, thirty two, forty eight, sixty four, seventy two, ninety six, one hundred twenty, one hundred twenty eight, one hundred forty four, one hundred sixty eight, one hundred ninety two, two hundred sixteen, two hundred forty, and two hundred fifty six) of dies.

- the clip-frame strip 900 is moved toward the lead-frame strip 500 while alignment is obtained to attach the paddles 902 of the clip-frame strip to the dies 700.

- the leads 1304 and 1306 provide the same functionality as the lead 1204 and a lead 1206 of the conventional transistor 1200 of FIG. 12.
