Trägerelement für Halbleiterchips

Carrier element for semiconductor chips
5

Bei heutigen Chipkarten werden die Halbleiterchips mittels eines zumeist mit einem nicht-leitenden, flexiblen Substrat gebildeten Trägerelements in die üblicherweise aus Kunststoff bestehende Karte eingebracht. Auf dem Trägerelement ist nicht nur der Halbleiterchip sondern es sind auch die Kontaktflächen, mit denen der Halbleiterchip von einem Lesegerät kontaktiert werden kann, angeordnet. Hierzu wird üblicherweise eine oberflächenveredelte Kupferfolie auf das nicht-leitende Substrat laminiert und beispielsweise durch Ätzen strukturiert. In das nicht-leitende Substrat werden vor dem Laminieren Löcher gestanzt, durch die hindurch der Chip beispielsweise mittels Drähte in Wire-Bond-Technik mit den Kontaktflächen elektrisch leitend verbunden werden kann. Der Halbleiterchip und die Drähte werden dann durch eine schützende Vergußmasse abgedeckt.In today's chip cards, the semiconductor chips are inserted into the card, usually made of plastic, using a carrier element that is usually made of a non-conductive, flexible substrate. The carrier element not only houses the semiconductor chip, but also the contact surfaces with which the semiconductor chip can be contacted by a reader. To do this, a surface-treated copper foil is usually laminated onto the non-conductive substrate and structured, for example, by etching. Before lamination, holes are punched into the non-conductive substrate through which the chip can be electrically connected to the contact surfaces, for example using wires in wire bonding technology. The semiconductor chip and the wires are then covered with a protective potting compound.

Die Chipkarten müssen bestimmte, durch die Anwender vorgegebene Biegebelastungen bestehen können. Die hierbei auftretenden Biegekräfte müssen jedoch vom Chip ferngehalten werden, da dieser wesentlich spröder als das Kartenmaterial ist. Dies trifft insbesondere für Chips zu, die größer als etwa 10 mm2 sind. Aus der EP 0 484 353 Bl ist es bekannt, hierzu auf dem flexiblen Substrat einen Versteifungsrahmen vorzusehen, der eine wesentlich höhere Biegesteifigkeit aufweist als das fle-0 xible Trägersubstrat.The chip cards must be able to withstand certain bending loads specified by the user. However, the bending forces that occur must be kept away from the chip, as the chip is much more brittle than the card material. This applies in particular to chips that are larger than about 10 mm 2 . From EP 0 484 353 B1 it is known to provide a stiffening frame on the flexible substrate, which has a much higher bending stiffness than the flexible carrier substrate.

Die Figur 4 zeigt eine Ausführungsform gemäß der EP 0 484 353 Bl. Das nicht-leitende, flexible Trägersubstrat 1 ist mit Ausnehmungen 2 versehen. Eine metallische Folie 3 ist auf das Substrat 1 mittels eines Klebers 4 laminiert. Die metallische Folie 3 ist in durch Rillen 5 voneinander elektrisch isolierte Kontaktflächen strukturiert. Ein Halbleiterchip 6 ist aufFigure 4 shows an embodiment according to EP 0 484 353 Bl. The non-conductive, flexible carrier substrate 1 is provided with recesses 2. A metallic foil 3 is laminated to the substrate 1 by means of an adhesive 4. The metallic foil 3 is structured into contact surfaces that are electrically insulated from one another by grooves 5.

das Substrat 1 geklebt und mittels Drähte 7 mit den Kontaktflächen 3 elektrisch verbunden. Zur Versteifung des flexiblen Substrates 1 ist ein Versteifungsring 8 auf das Substrat 1 geklebt. Das Innere des Versteifungsringes 8 ist mit einer Vergußmasse 9 gefüllt, um den Chip &bgr; und die Drähte 7 zu schützen.the substrate 1 is glued and electrically connected to the contact surfaces 3 by means of wires 7. To stiffen the flexible substrate 1, a stiffening ring 8 is glued to the substrate 1. The interior of the stiffening ring 8 is filled with a potting compound 9 to protect the chip β and the wires 7.

Das Aufbringen des Versteifungsrings ist problematisch, da relativ hohe Lagetoleranzen vorgegeben sind und außerdem spezielle, aufwendige Werkzeuge hierfür notwendig sind. Insgesamt ergibt sich eine sehr schwierige und aufwendige Prozeßführung. Außerdem wird durch den bekannten Versteifungsring die zur Klebung des Trägerelementes in die Karte nötige Fläche eingeschränkt.Applying the stiffening ring is problematic because relatively high positional tolerances are specified and special, complex tools are required for this. Overall, the process is very difficult and complex. In addition, the known stiffening ring limits the area required to glue the carrier element into the card.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Trägerelement anzugeben, das einerseits eine genügend große Biegesteifigkeit aufweist und andererseits einfach herzustellen ist.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a carrier element which, on the one hand, has sufficiently high flexural rigidity and, on the other hand, is easy to manufacture.

0 Die Aufgabe wird durch ein Trägerelement gemäß dem Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.0 The object is achieved by a carrier element according to claim 1. Advantageous further developments are specified in the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäß ausgebildete Versteifungsfolie hat den Vorteil, daß zu ihrer Herstellung und Weiterverarbeitung dieselben oder ähnliche Verfahrensschritte durchgeführt werden wie bei der Herstellung des Trägersubstrates oder des bekannten Trägerelementes. Dies sind Stanz- bzw. Laminierverfahrensschritte. Da die Versteifungsfolie außerdem dieselbe Au-0 ßenabmessung hat wie das Trägerelement, können zum Laminieren dieselben Maschinen benutzt werden wie zum Laminieren der die Kontaktflächen bildenden Kupferfolie.The stiffening foil designed according to the invention has the advantage that the same or similar process steps are carried out for its production and further processing as for the production of the carrier substrate or the known carrier element. These are punching or laminating process steps. Since the stiffening foil also has the same external dimensions as the carrier element, the same machines can be used for laminating as for laminating the copper foil forming the contact surfaces.

Die Trägerelemente werden normalerweise in einem sehr langen 5 Band gefertigt, wobei mehrere Trägerelemente sogar nebeneinander liegen können. Das Band weist an seinen Rändern Perforationen auf, mittels derer es in der Fertigungsmaschine wei-The carrier elements are normally manufactured in a very long 5 strip, whereby several carrier elements can even be placed next to each other. The strip has perforations on its edges, which allow it to be further guided in the production machine.

terbefordert werden kann. Wenn auch die Versteifungsfolie diese Löcher aufweist, kann sie in gleicher Weise wie das flexible Trägersubstrat oder die Kontaktflächenfolie befördert und verarbeitet werden.

If the stiffening film also has these holes, it can be conveyed and processed in the same way as the flexible carrier substrate or the contact surface film.

Da der durch Tiefziehen und Stanzen entstandene Rahmen entlang des Randes der Ausnehmung in der Versteifungsfolie nur dieselbe Dicke hat wie die Kupferfolie selbst, bleibt im Bereich außerhalb dieses Rahmens genügend Platz für einen KIeber, um das Trägerelement in einer Karte befestigen zu können. Die Dicke der Versteifungsfolie kann abhängig von der gewünschten Gesamtbiegesteifigkeit sowie den Materialeigenschaften der verwendeten Folie gewählt werden.Since the frame created by deep drawing and punching along the edge of the recess in the stiffening foil is only the same thickness as the copper foil itself, there is enough space outside this frame for an adhesive to be able to attach the carrier element to a card. The thickness of the stiffening foil can be selected depending on the desired overall bending stiffness and the material properties of the foil used.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles mit Hilfe von Figuren näher erläutert. Dabei zeigenThe invention is explained in more detail below using an embodiment with the aid of figures.

Die Figur Id zeigt eine Draufsicht auf eine erfindungsgemäße Versteifungsfolie 10, die als langes Band ausgebildet ist. Entlang der beiden Ränder des Bandes sind Perforierungen 13 angebracht, die einen Weitertransport des Bandes mittels Zahnrädern erlauben. Die Folie 10 weist Ausnehmungen 14 auf, entlang deren Ränder die Rahmen 12 verlaufen. Strichliert ist der Schnitt dargestellt, der die Darstellung der Figur Ic bildet.Figure Id shows a top view of a stiffening film 10 according to the invention, which is designed as a long strip. Perforations 13 are provided along the two edges of the strip, which allow the strip to be transported further using gears. The film 10 has recesses 14, along the edges of which the frames 12 run. The section that forms the representation in Figure Ic is shown in dashed lines.

In Figur 2b ist diese erfindungsgemäße Versteifungsfolie nochmals gezeigt. Die Figur 2a zeigt das flexible Trägersubstrat 15, das aus einem Kunststoff gebildet sein kann, wobei heutzutage üblicherweise glasfaserverstärktes Epoxidharz verwendet wird. Auch das Trägersubstrat 15 ist als langes 0 Band ausgebildet und weist an seinen Rändern Perforierungen 13 zum Weitertransport und exakten Positionieren bei Weiterverarbeitungen auf. Das Trägersubstrat 15 weist Stanzungen auf, in die ein nicht dargestellter Halbleiterchip eingesetzt und durch die hindurch dieser Halbleiterchip mit nicht zu erkennenden Kontaktflächen auf der Rückseite des Trägersubstrates 15 elektrisch verbunden werden kann. In der Figur2c ist schließlich die mit dem Trägersubstrat 15 verbundene Versteifungsfolie 10 dargestellt. Die Stanzungen 16 des Trägersubstrates 15 befinden sich innerhalb des einstückig mit der Versteifungsfolie 10 verbundenen Rahmens 12, so daß ein nicht dargestellter Halbleiterchip problemlos in die zentrale Ausnehmung eingesetzt werden kann und durch die peripheren Ausnehmungen im Trägersubstrat 15 mit den auf der Rückseite des Trägersubstrates vorgesehenen, nicht zu sehenden, Kontaktflächen verbunden werden kann.This stiffening film according to the invention is shown again in Figure 2b. Figure 2a shows the flexible carrier substrate 15, which can be made of a plastic, whereby nowadays glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin is usually used. The carrier substrate 15 is also designed as a long 0 strip and has perforations 13 on its edges for further transport and exact positioning during further processing. The carrier substrate 15 has punched holes into which a semiconductor chip (not shown) can be inserted and through which this semiconductor chip can be electrically connected to contact surfaces (not shown) on the back of the carrier substrate 15. Finally, Figure 2c shows the stiffening film 10 connected to the carrier substrate 15.

15 weist in diesem Fall nur periphere durch Stanzung entstandene Ausnehmungen 16 auf. Auf seiner Rückseite ist eine metallische Folie 20, die durch Rillen 22 in Kontaktflächen
strukturiert ist mittels eines Klebers 21 laminiert. Auf das Trägersubstrat 15 ist ein Halbleiterchip 23 angeordnet,
der mittels Bonddrähte 24 durch die Ausnehmungen 16 des Trägersubstrates
15 mit den Kontaktflächen 20 verbunden ist. Auf der dem Halbleiterchip 23 tragenden Vorderseite des Trägersubstrates
15 ist die erfindungsgemäße Versteifungsfolie 10
mittels eines Klebers auflaminiert. Der Bereich innerhalb des mit der Versteifungsfolie 10 einstückig verbundenen Rahmens

Figure 3 shows a cross-section through a carrier element punched out of the strip. The non-conductive, flexible carrier substrate
15 has in this case only peripheral recesses 16 created by punching. On its back is a metallic foil 20, which is divided into contact surfaces by grooves 22
structured is laminated by means of an adhesive 21. A semiconductor chip 23 is arranged on the carrier substrate 15,
which is passed through the recesses 16 of the carrier substrate by means of bonding wires 24
15 is connected to the contact surfaces 20. On the front side of the carrier substrate carrying the semiconductor chip 23
15 is the stiffening film 10 according to the invention
laminated using an adhesive. The area within the frame integrally connected to the stiffening film 10
12 is coated with a potting compound 25 to protect the semiconductor

chips 23 und der Bonddrähte 24 aufgefüllt.chips 23 and the bond wires 24 are filled.

Wie im Vergleich mit der Figur 4 zu sehen ist, verbleibt beim erfindungsgemäßen Trägerelement eine größere Fläche im Bereich
des Randes des Trägerelementes um dieses besser in eine 0 Plastikkarte einkleben zu können.
As can be seen in comparison with Figure 4, the carrier element according to the invention leaves a larger area in the area
the edge of the carrier element in order to be able to glue it better into a 0 plastic card.

Die Figuren 1 bis 4 zeigen ein nicht-leitendes Trägersubstrat 15 bzw. 1, das eine die Kontaktflächen bildende Metallkaschierung
20 bzw. 3 aufweist. Prinzipiell ist es jedoch ebenso möglich, ein leitendes, beispielsweise metallisches, Trägersubstrat
zu verwenden.
Figures 1 to 4 show a non-conductive carrier substrate 15 or 1, which has a metal lamination forming the contact surfaces
20 or 3. In principle, however, it is also possible to use a conductive, for example metallic, carrier substrate
to use.

Außerdem ist es ebenso denkbar, für das Material der Versteifungsfolie 10 Kunststoff zu wählen. Hierbei wären auch andere 0 Herstellverfahren als Tiefziehen und Stanzen denkbar.It is also conceivable to choose plastic for the material of the stiffening film. In this case, other manufacturing processes than deep drawing and punching would also be conceivable.
