  • Publication number: 20160211198
    Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. The method comprises: Preparing a semiconductor chip 6 with a first electrode layer 21 formed on an element-forming surface 7. Prepared a support member 30 having a conductor 31 formed on a pattern-forming surface 33. The first electrode layer 21 is bonded to the conductor 31 by a solder, and thus the semiconductor chip 6 is fixed on the support member 30. While the semiconductor chip 6 is fixed on the support member 30, the semiconductor chip 6 is coated by the sealing resin 3 to form a sealing structure 46. By removing the support member 30 from the sealing structure 46, the conductor 31 formed on the support member 30 is transferred to the sealing structure 46. The conductor 31 transferred to the sealing structure 46 is an external electrode exposed from the sealing structure 46.

  • Patent number: 6114859
    Abstract: Single-phase currents at two frequencies f.alpha. and f.beta. (f.alpha.<n.multidot.fs<f.beta.) of non-integral multiples of a system fundamental wave frequency fs sandwiching an targeted harmonic (frequency n.multidot.fs) are injected between two phases of a three-phase power system as interharmonic currents. A frequency analysis of measurement current and measurement voltage of each phase in the system is carried out and a positive-phase-sequence current I1, a positive-phase-sequence voltage V1, a negative-phase-sequence current I2, and a negative-phase-sequence voltage V2 are detected for each of the two frequencies f.alpha. and f.beta. in the system based on injecting of the interharmonic currents. Positive-phase-sequence and negative-phase-sequence admittances Y1 and Y2 or positive-phase-sequence and negative-phase-sequence impedances Z1 and Z2 are found for each of the frequencies f.alpha. and f.beta. in the system as Y1=I1/V1 and Y2=I2/V2 or Z1=V1/I1 and Z2=V2/I2.
