Patent number: 5637922Abstract: A power device component package includes a substrate supporting a drain lead, a source lead, and a gate lead. Each of the leads comprises an electrically conductive material having a thickness sufficient to form a high current contact. A power device component with component pads has an electrically conductive backside supported by and electrically coupled to the drain lead. A dielectric layer overlies at least portions of the component, the source lead, and the gate lead and has a plurality of vias therein aligned with predetermined ones of the component pads and predetermined portions of the source and gate leads. A pattern of electrical conductors extends through selected ones of the vias, with a first portion of the pattern coupling selected ones of the component pads to the source lead and a second portion of the pattern coupling at least one other of the component pads to the gate lead.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 1994Date of Patent: June 10, 1997Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Raymond A.

Patent number: 5532512Abstract: Power semiconductor device structures and assemblies with improved heat dissipation characteristics and low impedance interconnections include a thermally-conductive dielectric layer, such as diamondlike carbon (DLC) overlying at least portions of the active major surface of a semiconductor chip, with vias formed in the dielectric layer in alignment with contact pads on the active major surface. A patterned metallization layer is formed over the thermally-conductive dielectric layer, with portions of the metallization layer extending through the vias into electrical contact with the chip contact pads. A metal structure is electrically and thermally coupled to selected areas of the patterned metallization, such as by solder bonding or by a eutectic bonding process. In different embodiments, the metal structure may comprise a metal conductor bonded to the opposite major surface of another power semiconductor device structure, a heat-dissipating device-mounting structure, or simply a low-impedance lead.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 1994Date of Patent: July 2, 1996Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Raymond A.

Patent number: 5324987Abstract: Differences in thermal expansion properties between integrated circuit chips, especially of gallium arsenide, and the dielectric substrates (especially diamond and aluminum nitride) on which said chips are mounted are accommodated by interposing between the substrate and the chip a base having diamond pedestals in combination with a material of higher coefficient of thermal expansion than the substrate, typically a metal such as copper or tungsten. The base may be integral with a diamond substrate or may be a shim interposed between the substrate and the chip.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 1993Date of Patent: June 28, 1994Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Charles D. Iacovangelo, Raymond A. Fillion, James F. Burgess

Patent number: 5293070Abstract: An integrated heat sink module includes a sinuously channeled base and a bonded top surface electrode that is dielectrically isolated from the base. The top surface electrode acts as a common modular electrode capable of conducting heat to an ultimate cooling medium with no intervening thermal barrier. Constrained copper technology (CCT) is employed to ensure that the relatively low effective temperature coefficient of expansion of the channel base is acquired by the channel cover, which is the dielectrically (but not thermally) insulated top surface, and that the common electrode is integrated with, by forming a part of, the fluid channel in the base. The heat sink weight is reduced significantly by the channeling, while use of the CCT technology ensures high reliability and integrity of the module.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 1992Date of Patent: March 8, 1994Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: James F. Burgess, Wivina A. A. Rik DeDoncker, Donald W. Jones, Constantine A. Neugebauer

Patent number: 4996116Abstract: A direct (metal-metal compound eutectic) bond process is improved by disposing a eutectic/substrate-wetting enhancement layer on the substrate prior to performing the direct bond process to bond a metal foil to the substrate. Where the metal is copper, the direct bond process is rendered more effective than prior art direct bond processes on alumina and beryllia and makes the direct bond process effective on tungsten, molybdenum and aluminum nitride, all of which were unusable with the prior art direct bond copper process. A variety of new, useful structures may be produced using this process. The eutectic/substrate-wetting enhancement layer is preferably a noble-like metal or includes a noble-like metal such as platinum, palladium and gold.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 1989Date of Patent: February 26, 1991Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Harold F.

Patent number: 4803450Abstract: Multilayer circuit boards composed primarily of silicon and containing buried ground planes and buried conducting runs are fabricated in one embodiment by positioning conductive patterns (12) on the surfaces of silicon substrates and melting a solder component of the conductive patterns (12) and allowing it to flow together with solder from the conductive patterns (12) on a stacked, adjacent silicon substrate (10). When the solder cools, a single conductive pathway (18) exists between adjacent silicon substrates (10) and bonds the adjacent substrates. If the substrates are coated with SiO.sub.2 (20), a multilayer structure with buried microwave strip lines (22) is formed in the bonding process. Alternatively, highly resistive silicon substrates (26) are used as a dielectric for microwave strip lines (24) on a top surface thereof and a conductive sheet (28) on the bottom surface thereof acts as a ground plane for microwave energy propagating along strip line (24).Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 1987Date of Patent: February 7, 1989Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: James F.

Patent number: 4711804Abstract: A circuit board assembly for supporting a leadless ceramic chip carrier for surface mounting on a printed circuit board and for reducing the thermally induced stress on solder joint connections at the carrier-to-board contacts. The board includes an inner heat sink core comprising a highly conductive plate having openings provided therein in the areas which underlie the chip carrier. The openings have inserts therein of a material which closely matches the thermal coefficient of expansion of the ceramic to thereby reduce stress of the intermediate solder joints.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 1986Date of Patent: December 8, 1987Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventor: James F.

Patent number: 3993411Abstract: A direct bond between metallic members and non-metallic members is achieved at elevated temperatures in a controlled reactive atmosphere without resorting to the use of electroless plating, vacuum deposition or intermediate metals. A metal member such as copper, for example, is placed in contact with a non-metallic substrate, such as alumina, the metal member and the substrate are heated to a temperature slightly below the melting of the metal, e.g., between approximately 1065.degree. and 1080.degree. C. for copper, with the heating being performed in a reactive atmosphere, such as an oxidizing atmosphere, for a sufficient time to create a copper-copper oxide eutectic melt which, upon cooling, bonds the copper to the substrate. Various metals, non-metals and reactive gases are described for direct bonding.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 1975Date of Patent: November 23, 1976Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Guy L.
