  • Publication number: 20230144840
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip hazing a non-overlapping region in which a source pad for main transistor and a clip do not overlap with each other. At this time, a sense transistor is arranged in a region of the non-overlapping region, which is located between a first portion of the clip and a first short side of the source pad for main transistor in a plan view.

  • Patent number: 11444010
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor chip including a field effect transistor for switching; a die pad on which the semiconductor chip is mounted via a first bonding material; a lead electrically connected to a pad for source of the semiconductor chip through a metal plate; a lead coupling portion formed integrally with the lead; and a sealing portion for sealing them. A back surface electrode for drain of the semiconductor chip and the die pad are bonded via the first bonding material, the metal plate and the pad for source of the semiconductor chip are bonded via a second bonding material, and the metal plate and the lead coupling portion are bonded via a third bonding material. The first, second, and third bonding materials have conductivity, and an elastic modulus of each of the first and second bonding materials is lower than that of the third bonding material.

  • Patent number: 10468338
    Abstract: Performance of a semiconductor device is enhanced. A semiconductor device is a semiconductor device obtained by sealing in a sealing portion first, second, and third semiconductor chips each incorporating a power transistor for high-side switch, fourth, fifth, and sixth semiconductor chips each incorporating a power transistor for low-side switch, and a semiconductor chip incorporating a control circuit controlling these chips. The source pads of the fourth, fifth, and sixth semiconductor chips are electrically coupled to a plurality of leads LD9 and a plurality of leads LD10 via a metal plate. As viewed in a plane, the leads LD9 intersect with a side MRd4 of the sealing portion and the leads LD10 intersect with a side MRd2 of the sealing portion.
