  • Patent number: 7955901
    Abstract: A method for producing a power semiconductor module having surface mountable flat external contact areas is disclosed. At least one power semiconductor chip is fixed by its rear side on a drain external contact. An insulation layer covers the top side over the side edges of the semiconductor chip as far as the inner housing plane was a leaving free the source and gate contact areas on the top side of the semiconductor chip and also was partly leaving free the top sides of the corresponding external contacts.

  • Patent number: 7479691
    Abstract: A power semiconductor module having surface-mountable flat external contact areas and a method for producing the same is disclosed. In one embodiment, the top sides of the external contacts form an inner housing plane, on which at least one power semiconductor chip is fixed by its rear side on a drain external contact. An insulation layer covers the top side over the edge sides of the semiconductor chip as far as the inner housing plane whilst leaving free the source and gate contact areas on the top side of the semiconductor chip and also whilst partly leaving free the top sides of the corresponding external contacts. Arranged on the insulation layer is a connecting conductive layer between the source contact areas on the top side of the semiconductor chip and the top sides of the source external contacts, and also a gate connecting layer from the gate contact areas to the top side of the gate external contact.

  • Patent number: 7476981
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic module having a layer of adhesive between metallic surfaces of components of the module. The metallic surfaces are arranged facing one another. The adhesive of the layer of adhesive includes agglomerates of nanoparticles, which form paths, surrounded by an adhesive base composition, in the adhesive base composition. Furthermore, the invention relates to a process for producing the module.

  • Patent number: 7389903
    Abstract: A device for soldering contacts on semiconductor chips. A chip is held on a chip mount by a chuck and is heated from a side facing away from the wafer by means of a radiation source, so that a solder applied to a side facing the wafer is melted. A flushing device, having a plate with a window, a gas channel, and a gas outlet opening for a forming gas, is arranged at the window, is fitted parallel to the wafer. The chip is moved vertically in relation to the wafer, pressed onto the wafer through the window, and soldered on by means of isothermal solidification.

  • Patent number: 3987135
    Abstract: An improved process of forming sintered magnesia bodies from a magnesium hydroxide aqueous slurry wherein the slurry is dried to a moisture content where the solids can be compacted to self-supporting bodies, preferably about 5 to 8% moisture, by heating at a temperature below the dissociation temperature of the magnesium hydroxide, compacting the dried magnesium hydroxide into briquettes, heating the briquettes at a temperature above the dissociation temperature of magnesium hydroxide to form magnesia, re-compacting to form new briquettes of greater density, and heating to sintering temperature to sinter the briquettes.
