  • Patent number: 9572294
    Abstract: Provided are: a circuit device which has improved connection reliability in a solder joint portion by suppressing the occurrence of sink of solder; and a method for manufacturing the circuit device. In a method for manufacturing a circuit device of the present invention, a plurality of solders (19), which are apart from each other, are firstly formed on the upper surface of a pad (18A), and a chip component (14B) and a transistor (14C) are affixed at the same time. After that, a solder paste (31) is supplied to the upper surface of the pad (18A) using a syringe (30), a heatsink (14D) is mounted on top of the solder paste (31), and melting is caused by a reflow process. There is little risk of sinking of the solders (19) in the present invention since the solders (19) are discretely arranged on the upper surface of the pad (18A).

  • Patent number: 8624408
    Abstract: In a circuit device of the present invention, the lower surface side of a circuit board and part of side surfaces thereof are covered with a second resin encapsulant, and the upper surface side and the like of the circuit board are covered with a first resin encapsulant. Since heat dissipation to the outside of the circuit device is achieved mainly through the second resin encapsulant, a particle size of filler contained in the second resin encapsulant is made larger than a particle size of filler contained in the first resin encapsulant. Heat dissipation to the outside of the circuit device is greatly improved.

  • Patent number: 8084301
    Abstract: Provided is a circuit device manufacturing method for coating a bottom surface of a circuit board with a thin coating of sealing resin. In the present invention, a circuit board having a circuit element such as a semiconductor element embedded therein is placed in a molding die, and a resin sheet containing a thermosetting resin is interposed between the circuit board and a bottom surface of an inner wall of the molding die. Under this condition, the molding die is heated to about 180° C., and a sealing resin in liquid form is injected through a gate. Thereby, the bottom surface of the circuit board can be coated with a thin coating of the sealing resin made of the molten resin sheet.

  • Patent number: 8064212
    Abstract: In a hybrid integrated circuit device that uses a metal substrate, a sound noise is prevented, which would otherwise be generated due to transmission, to the metal substrate, of vibration caused when a ceramic capacitor expands and contracts by switching ON and OFF a transistor. For improving a heat dissipation effect, a switching transistor driven by a driving pulse and a ceramic capacitor connected to the switching transistor are incorporated on a conductive path on an insulated metal substrate. Both ends of the ceramic capacitor are fixed to the conductive path by solders which are covered with a hard resin to be protected from a solder crack by thermal expansion of the metal substrate. The ceramic capacitor and the hard resin are wholly covered with a soft resin which absorbs noise due to expansion caused when the ceramic capacitor is switched, so that the metal substrate is prevented from resonating.

  • Publication number: 20060065421
    Abstract: Warping of a hybrid integrated circuit device 10 due to shrinkage on curing of a sealing resin 14 is suppressed. The hybrid integrated circuit device 10 includes: a conductive pattern 13 provided on a surface of a circuit board 11; circuit elements 15 fixed to the conductive pattern 13; thin metal wires 17 electrically connecting the circuit elements 15 to the conductive pattern; leads 16 which are connected to the conductive pattern 13 to become output or input and extended to the outside; and a sealing resin 14 which is made of a thermosetting resin and covers the circuit board 11 by transfer molding while at least a rear surface of the circuit board is exposed. Here, a thermal expansion coefficient of the sealing resin 14 is set to be smaller than a thermal expansion coefficient of the circuit board 11. Thus, warping of the circuit board 11 in an after cure step can be prevented.
