  • Patent number: 7969000
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a plurality of chips is reduced in size. In HSOP (semiconductor device) for driving a three-phase motor, a first semiconductor chip including a pMISFET and a second semiconductor chip including an nMISFET are mounted over each of a first tab, second tab, and third tab. The drains of the pMISFET and nMISFET over each tab are electrically connected with each other. Thus, two of six MISFETs can be placed over each of three tabs divided in correspondence with the number of phases of the motor, and they can be packaged in one in a compact manner. As a result, the size of the HSOP for driving a three-phase motor, having a plurality of chips can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 7955902
    Abstract: A semiconductor device manufacturing method in which a semiconductor chip is connected to first and second lead frames. Source and gate electrodes extending over a first main surface of the semiconductor chip are connected to first electrode plates of the first lead frame and a drain electrode on the second main surface of the semiconductor chip, opposite to the first main surface, is connected to a drain electrode plate of the second lead frame. A sealing body is formed to cover the semiconductor chip and lead frames, while leaving the top surface of the drain electrode plate exposed with respect to the sealing body. Unnecessary portions of the first and second lead frames are cut off and surface mounting terminals are formed from the portions of the first and second electrode plates projecting from the sealing body.

  • Publication number: 20100181628
    Abstract: Prevention of disconnection of a bonding wire resulting from adhesive interface delamination between a resin and a leadframe, and improvement of joint strength of the resin and the leadframe are achieved in a device manufactured by a low-cost and simple processing. A boss is provided on a source lead by a stamping processing, and a support pillar is provided in a concave portion on a rear side of the source lead in order to prevent ultrasonic damping upon joining the bonding wire onto the boss, so that an insufficiency of the joint strength between the bonding wire and the source lead is prevented. Also, a continuous bump is provided on the boss so as to surround a joint portion between the source lead and the bonding wire, so that disconnection of the bonding wire resulting from delamination between the resin and the source lead is prevented.

  • Patent number: 7732919
    Abstract: Coupling reliability of a passive component is improved to increase the reliability of a semiconductor device. A first through hole is formed in a first electrode part of a first plate-like lead, and a second through hole is formed in a second electrode part of a second plate-like lead. As a result, at the first electrode part of the first plate-like lead, one external terminal of the passive component can be coupled to the first electrode parts on both sides of the first through hole while being laid across the first through hole. Also, at the second electrode part of the second plate-like lead, the other external terminal of the passive component can be coupled to the second electrode parts on both sides of the second through hole while being laid across the second through hole. Accordingly, at central portions both in the longitudinal and width directions of the passive component, the passive component is surrounded by sealing members.
