Description

FIELD OF THE APPLICATION

The present application relates to the field of power supply equipment technologies, and in particular, to a power supply module and a packaging and integrating method thereof.

BACKGROUND OF THE APPLICATION

Main components of a power supply module include a power switch, a control IC (Integrated circuit, integrated circuit), an input capacitor, an output capacitor, a power inductor, and a resistor and a capacitor which are configured for signal processing. The power switch is often an MOSFET (Metallic Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor, metallic oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) or an IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor, insulated gate bipolar transistor), and the control IC may be a driver chip, or a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation, pulse width modulation) control chip, or a combination of the two. At present, power supply and semiconductor manufacturers are all developing packaging and integrating technologies of the power supply module, integration schemes of the power supply manufacturers and the semiconductor manufacturers gradually produce an intersection in the field of semiconductor packaging and integrating on the chip level, structures such as the MOSFET, the IC, and the passive element (such as an inductor, a resistor, and a capacitor) are often used, a PCB (Printed Circuit Board, printed circuit board) or other substrates are embedded, and an interconnection manner of gold wire or copper wire bonding is adopted. The MOSFET, as the switch, is controlled or driven by the IC to complete the pulse width modulation of the input voltage, and output the voltage required by a load after filtering by the inductor and the capacitor.

In power supply modules of the prior art, the inductor may be formed by soldering multiple copper pieces with a copper lead frame and additionally adding a magnetic core, and may also be formed by soldering a ready inductance component onto the copper lead frame by using the SMT (Surface Mount Technology, surface mount technology). According to the different integration manner of the IC and the MOSFET, the packaging and integrating structure of the power supply module is also different, which mainly has the following two manners:

Further, the gold wire bonding process has defects, such as the diameter of the gold wire is small, the wire length is large, so that parasitic parameters such as parasitic impedance during heat dissipation and working are not ideal and the power efficiency is affected. In addition, for the above second manner, a layer of PCB interconnection is added, the degree of technical difficulty of the process and the cost are increased.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

To make persons in the art better understand the solutions of according to embodiments of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described below in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and implementation.

For some problems existing in the power supply module in which the connection of the gold wire or copper wire bonding is used in the prior art, an embodiment of the present application provides a power supply module, which includes: a lead frame, a passive element, an integrated circuit IC, and MOSFETs. Passive elements include passive elements such as a power inductor, an input capacitor, an output capacitor, and a resistor. The passive elements are soldered onto the lead frame by using the surface mount technology. In the embodiment of the present application, the IC is a flip chip and is mounted and soldered onto the lead frame by using the flip-chip technology. The IC may act as a driver chip of the MOSFETs.

In the power supply module, generally two MOSFETs are required. Therefore, in the power supply module of the embodiment of the present application, two MOSFETs and the IC may be integrated on one flip chip (a single-chip structure for short); or the two MOSFETs may be designed as two chips independent of the IC (a tri-chip structure for short), and in this case, the two MOSFET chips may be designed as flip chips or normal chips.

The flip chip and the normal chip refer to two types of chip having different packaging manners.

The packaging manner of the flip chip is that a front side of the chip face downwards towards a substrate to form a shortest circuit without lead bonding, thereby reducing the resistance; a metal solder joint such as a copper stud solder joint or a tin ball solder joint that exists below the flip chip, the connection manner in which the flip chip and the lead frame are connected is as shown in FIG. 1, a flip chip 11 is soldered onto a lead frame 10 through metal solder joints 12.

The normal chip is a chip with a conventional structure and is connected to the lead frame through a bottom surface of the chip.

The single-chip structure and the tri-chip structure are taken as examples to further describe the power supply module of the embodiment of the present application.

As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a single-chip structure according to an embodiment of the present application;

In this embodiment, passive elements 211, 212, 213 are soldered onto a lead frame 20 by using the surface mount technology. The passive elements may specifically be inductors, capacitors, and resistors. Two MOSFETs and an IC are integrated on a flip chip 22, and the flip chip 22 is mounted and soldered onto the lead frame 20 by using the flip-chip technology.

The lead frame 20 in this embodiment may be of an array structure, that is, multiple modules are arranged in matrix in the lead frame.

The following assembling sequence may be used for integrating the power supply module with such a structure:

(1) The passive elements are soldered onto the lead frame by using the surface mount technology.

(2) After being cleaned, the flip chip on which the MOSFETs and the IC are integrated is mounted and soldered to the lead frame by using the flip-chip technology, and then the whole module is cleaned.

(3) Filling adhesive is filled in the bottom of the flip chip by using the underfill technology and cured in the bottom of the flip chip, and then the whole module is cleaned.

(4) The whole module is plastic encapsulated by using the plastic encapsulation technology.

(5) The power supply module is separated through stamping separation or cutting separation after the plastic encapsulating is completed.

It should be noted that, the processes of the cleaning in steps (2) and (3) or the underfill process in step (3) is optional, whether the cleaning processes and the underfill process are performed may be determined according to actual needs.

In addition, in an actual application, the above assembling sequence may be adjusted flexibly. For example, the flip chip is assembled first, and then the passive elements are assembled.

It can be seen that, in the power supply module in the embodiment of the present application, without the need of connection through the gold wire or the copper wire bonding, the MOSFETs and the IC are directly mounted to the lead frame through the flip chip, and a connection distance between the chip and the lead frame is short, so that the parasitic parameters are effectively decreased and the heat dissipation performance and the power efficiency are effectively improved.

In order to further improve the heat dissipation performance of the power supply module, in the embodiment of the present application, a copper piece may also be disposed on a back surface of the flip chip on which the MOSFETs and the IC are integrated, so as to facilitate heat dissipation and reduce electrical noise. The copper piece may be soldered onto the back surface of the flip chip or adhere to the back surface of the flip chip through high thermal conductive adhesive. Through an appropriate chip design, the two MOSFETs integrated on the chip are all designed as the vertical structure or partially designed as the vertical structure, electrodes of the MOSFETs may be on an upper surface of the chip, the copper piece may also, as an external connection line of the MOSFET electrodes, provide an electrical connection function.
