  • Publication number: 20180138135
    Abstract: In a semiconductor element of the present invention, an electroless nickel-phosphorus plating layer and an electroless gold plating layer are formed on both a front-side electrode and a back-side electrode of a front-back conduction-type substrate. The front-side electrode and the back-side electrode are formed of aluminum or an aluminum alloy. The proportion of the thickness of the electroless nickel-phosphorus plating layer formed on the front-side electrode with respect to the thickness of the electroless nickel-phosphorus plating layer formed on the back-side electrode is in a range of 1.0 to 3.5. The semiconductor element of the present invention allows the occurrence of voids inside solder during mounting by soldering to be prevented.
