Publication number: 20160284565Abstract: A semiconductor device manufacturing method which enhances the reliability of the semiconductor device. The method uses a lead frame (hoop) which includes a first suspension lead and a second suspension lead. Each of the suspension leads has a narrow part which has a smaller width than at least any one of a first lead, a second lead, and a tie bar. If a tensile stress is applied to the first suspension lead or second suspension lead, the narrow parts reduce the stress. This relieves the stress on the first lead, the second lead and the base of a sealing member, thereby reducing the possibility of package cracking or package chipping. As a result, the reliability of the semiconductor device is enhanced.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2016Publication date: September 29, 2016Inventor: Eiji ONO

Patent number: 9000595Abstract: To provide a semiconductor device having a reduced size and thickness while suppressing deterioration in reliability. After a semiconductor wafer is ground at a back surface thereof with a grinding material into a predetermined thickness, the resulting semiconductor wafer is diced along a cutting region to obtain a plurality of semiconductor chips. While leaving grinding grooves on the back surface of each of the semiconductor chips, the semiconductor chip is placed on the upper surface of a die island via a conductive resin paste so as to face the back surface of the semiconductor chip and the upper surface of the die island each other. The die island has, on the upper surface thereof, a concave having a depth of from 3 ?m to 10 ?m from the edge of the concave to the bottom of the concave.Type: GrantFiled: April 3, 2014Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Assignee: Renesas Electronics CorporationInventors: Eiji Ono, Eiji Osugi
