  • Publication number: 20220139844
    Abstract: A first molded resin containing first insulating fillers having particle sizes smaller than the opening size of a wire mesh is formed inside the wire mesh to seal a semiconductor chip, bonding wires, and bond pads, and a second molded resin containing second insulating fillers having particle sizes larger than the opening size of the wire mesh is formed outside the wire mesh to seal the semiconductor ship, the bonding wires, and the bond pads via the first molded resin and the wire mesh. This allows for reducing warpage during solder mounting and for improving productivity.

  • Patent number: 9355868
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes the steps of placing, on a heat sink made of a metal, a semiconductor element and a frame surrounding the semiconductor element, placing solder on an upper surface of the frame, placing a cap on the solder, and heating the solder while exerting on the cap a force to be applied toward the frame without scrubbing the cap on the frame. In the heating step a heat source is brought into contact with the heat sink and the solder is heated with the heat source.
