Description

Cascade GaN-based power device with laminated structure and packaging method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and particularly relates to a GaN-based power device and a packaging method thereof.
Background
Since the twentieth century, the fields of mobile communication, electronic automobiles, large-scale automatic industrial production and the like have been vigorously developed, and higher requirements are put forward for corresponding electronic systems. Power electronics, an essential core element in electronic systems, is one of the main directions for improving system performance. In order to meet the requirements of electronic system applications, power devices are evolving towards high voltages, high currents, high frequencies, high integration and intellectualization. GaN power devices have become a hot spot in the field of power electronics due to their excellent characteristics of large forbidden bandwidth, high saturated electron mobility, high thermal conductivity, etc., and HEMTs (high electron mobility transistors) made based on GaN materials are the most mature.
The GaN HEMT mainly has an enhancement mode and a depletion mode, wherein the existing preparation technology of the high-voltage GaN HEMT in the single enhancement mode is not mature, and the prepared device still has a plurality of problems, such as small gate voltage swing, unstable threshold voltage and the like, which affect the reliability of the device and the large-scale use of the device. The monomer depletion type GaN HEMT is a mode naturally formed in the preparation process, has good stability and a mature preparation process, can easily realize high voltage with breakdown voltage of more than 600V, and has the characteristics of wider driving power supply range and the like. So the single body depletion type GaN HEMT has more advantages in high-voltage high-power application. However, the depletion mode is conducted when the grid is not biased, so that the system continuously consumes energy, and the static power consumption of the system is greatly increased relative to that of the enhancement mode, so that the enhancement mode is very necessary to be formed by cascading the high-voltage depletion GaN HEMT and the low-voltage enhancement type silicon-based MOS tube.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a GaN HEMT and silicon-based MOS transistor in cascade to form a hybrid transistor with a forward turn-on voltage enhancement mode of operation. The left side is a low-voltage silicon-based MOS tube which controls the on and off of the whole mixing tube, and the right side is a high-voltage depletion GaN-based HEMT chip which plays a role in bearing high voltage when the mixing tube is turned off.
Fig. 2 is one of the implementations of fig. 1 commonly used in the prior art. In the prior art, a GaN-based cascade power device and a packaging method thereof (application number: 201810953473.1) are disclosed, wherein a TO-220FL copper frame is used as a packaging frame, a high-voltage depletion type GaN HEMT and a silicon-based MOSFET are respectively adhered TO the right and the left of a frame base island through insulating glue, and a GaN HEMT grid electrode (G2) and a silicon-based MOSFET source electrode (S1) are respectively and directly electrically connected TO the frame base island through copper wires and aluminum wires. Because the frame base island is the source electrode (S) of the hybrid tube and the low-voltage MOS tube drain electrode (D1) of the vertical structure is arranged at the bottom of the chip, according to the circuit connection mode of fig. 1, the silicon-based MOS tube drain electrode (D1) cannot be directly adhered to the frame base island.
The above technology has the disadvantages that:
1. the high-voltage depletion type GaN HEMT and the silicon-based MOSFET are respectively arranged on the right and the left of the frame base island, the arrangement layout needs to occupy the area of two chips, the GaN chips are high-power devices, the chip area is usually larger, and the problems that the design packaging layout wiring is limited, the frame selection is limited, the packaging volume is larger, the application requirements are not met and the like are often caused.
2. The MOS tube with the vertical structure is adhered to the small copper substrate through silver paste, and the small copper substrate is adhered to the frame base island through insulating glue.
3. The grid electrode of the MOS tube is larger in distance from the grid electrode pin of the frame, the wire diameter of the copper wire is small, problems easily occur in the wire bonding process, and the device is invalid due to the fact that wire punching and even direct wire breakage easily occur in the injection molding process of the subsequent plastic packaging process.
4. The used small copper substrate is easy to oxidize in the curing process of silver paste and insulating glue, so that the subsequent conductivity and bonding stability are reduced.
5. The packaging is carried out by using a copper frame, the frame is easy to oxidize in the high-temperature curing process after the insulating glue process and the silver paste process are used, in addition, when the bonding of grid copper wires is carried out, the frame is oxidized due to the fact that the frame is preheated in a guide rail of a press welder, copper wires of a silicon-based MOS tube connected to a grid of a GaN power device and copper wires of a source electrode of the silicon-based MOS tube connected to a frame base island are difficult to bond due to the fact that copper oxide is generated on the surface of the oxidized frame, and the device is invalid due to the fact that the second welding spot is subjected to cold joint and cold joint.
