Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、電子部品である複数個の半導体チップを装着したリードフレームに離型フィルムを介して樹脂封止する電子部品の樹脂封止成形方法及び装置の改良に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来から、固定上型と可動下型とから成る樹脂封止成形用金型を搭載した電子部品の樹脂封止成形装置を用いて、複数個の半導体チップを装着したリードフレームの半導体チップ非装着面に離型フィルムを被覆した状態で、複数個の半導体チップを嵌装したキャビティ内に樹脂を注入する、トランスファー成形が行われている。
【0003】
即ち、まず、複数個の半導体チップをワイヤで電気的に接続されたリードフレームを下型面の所定位置に設けたセット用凹所に該チップ装着面側を下方向に向けて供給セットすると共に、上型面と半導体チップ非装着面との間に離型フィルムを供給して上型面に貫通して上型に設けたフィルム吸引孔より離型フィルムを吸引して上型面に被覆し、次に、両型を型締めして下型に設けた樹脂注入用のキャビティ内に複数個の該チップとワイヤとを嵌装セットし、次に、下型面に設けた樹脂材料供給用のポットより加熱溶融化された溶融樹脂を樹脂通路を介してキャビティ内に溶融樹脂を注入して複数個の該チップとワイヤとをキャビティ内で成形する樹脂成形体を樹脂封止することにより、リードフレームにおける該チップ非装着面のリード部に溶融樹脂を成形しない状態で樹脂封止する。
次に、溶融樹脂で形成された樹脂成形体が硬化するのに必要な所要時間の経過後に、樹脂成形体と樹脂通路とが硬化して硬化樹脂を成形して、硬化した樹脂通路と樹脂成形体との樹脂封止済部分が一体となって成形される。
つまり、従来の技術では、上型面に離型フィルムを吸引した状態で、複数個の該チップとワイヤとを嵌装したキャビティ内に溶融樹脂を注入充填して樹脂封止する、トランスファー成形を採用している(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。
【0004】
【特許文献1】
特開2001−203227号公報(第5−6頁、第1図)
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、近年の傾向として、リードフレームの厚みが薄くなったうえにリードフレームの形状が大きくなったり、リードフレーム上にマトリクス状に配置された大量の半導体チップを装着したうえに、該チップ自体も極小化・極薄化しており、その該チップと電気的に接続するワイヤ自体も極細化や多ピン化となっている。
以上のことからも、離型フィルムを吸引して上型面へ被覆した状態で上下型を型締めして、従来のトランスファー成形で該チップとワイヤとを嵌装したキャビティ内に樹脂を注入する時の、その樹脂の流れは水平方向であり、その水平方向からの樹脂圧によりリードフレーム自体が樹脂圧に押されて波打った状態となって、離型フィルムと該チップ非装着面との間に隙間が発生して完全に密着しない状態となるので、該チップ非装着面に樹脂が廻り込み樹脂ばりが発生すると云う問題があった。
加えて、キャビティの鉛直方向の長さ(厚み)も短くなり、キャビティ底面の面積が大きくなるので、前述した水平方向からの樹脂圧によりワイヤの屈曲や欠損等のワイヤ不良が発生したり、キャビティ全体に樹脂が行き渡らずに未充填不良が発生すると云う問題があった。
さらに、樹脂通路を介してキャビティ内に嵌装された複数個の該チップとワイヤとを樹脂で注入する際に使用される樹脂量は不要となる樹脂通路部分の樹脂量も余分に使用する必要があり、さらには、樹脂成形体と基板との密着性を向上させるのには、高密度な樹脂材料を使用することからもコスト高となる樹脂材料を過剰に使用することになるので、樹脂の歩留まりを著しく低下することになる。
【0006】
即ち、本発明は、電子部品である半導体チップを装着したリードフレームの半導体チップ非装着面と離型フィルムとを隙間なく確実に密着して、樹脂成形上の問題を効率良く解決する、電子部品の樹脂封止成形方法及び装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前記技術的課題を解決するために本発明に電子部品の樹脂封止成形方法は、上型と下型とから成る樹脂封止成形用金型を用いて、電子部品である複数個の半導体チップを装着されたリードフレームにおける該チップ非装着面のリード部を離型フィルムで被覆した状態で、前記上下型を型締めして加熱溶融化された樹脂材料で樹脂封止する電子部品の樹脂封止成形方法であって、前記した上下型の型締め時において、前記した下型の金型面の所定位置に該チップ装着側を下方向に向け且つ前記した該チップ非装着面と前記上型の金型面との間にある前記離型フィルムを介して前記リードフレームが供給された状態で、前記した複数個の該チップを前記した下型に備えたキャビティ形成部にある加熱溶融化された樹脂材料で圧縮成形すると共に、前述した圧縮成形における所要圧力により前記した離型フィルムと該チップ非装着面とを隙間なく確実に密着することを特徴とする。
【0008】
また、前記技術的課題を解決するために本発明に電子部品の樹脂封止成形装置は、上型と該上型に対向配置した下型とから成る樹脂封止成形用金型と、前記上型の金型面に被覆し且つ電子部品である複数個の半導体チップを装着されたリードフレームにおける該チップ非装着面のリード部を被覆する離型フィルムを供給する離型フィルム供給機構と、前記した複数個の該チップを樹脂封止する樹脂材料を供給する樹脂材料供給機構とを含む電子部品の樹脂封止成形装置であって、前記した上下型の型締め時において、前記した下型の金型面の所定位置に該チップ装着側を下方向に向け且つ前記した該チップ非装着面と前記上型の金型面との間にある前記離型フィルムを介して前記リードフレームが供給された状態で、前記した複数個の該チップを前記した下型に備えたキャビティ形成部にある加熱溶融化された樹脂材料で圧縮成形すると共に、前述した圧縮成形における所要圧力により前記した離型フィルムと該チップ非装着面とを隙間なく確実に密着することを特徴とする。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図1乃至図8における実施例図に基づいて、説明する。
なお、図1乃至図8は、本発明に係る樹脂封止成形装置を示した図である。
【0010】
即ち、従来装置における金型構造に備えたポット・プランジャ・樹脂通路部分(カル部・ランナ部・ゲート部)を全く設けることのない、本発明に係る電子部品の樹脂封止成形装置において、図1に示すように、例えば、上型1と該上型1に対向配置した下型2とから成る樹脂封止成形用金型と、上型1の金型面(上型面3)に被覆する離型フィルム4を上下型1・2間に所定の張力で張架して供給する離型フィルム供給機構(図示しない)と、下型2に備えたキャビティ形成部5に樹脂材料(本実施例では顆粒樹脂6を示す)を供給する樹脂材料供給機構(図示しない)とを設けている。
【0011】
また、本実施例で用いるリードフレーム7は、図3に示すように、例えば、リードフレーム7上の所定個所に配置された複数個の半導体チップ8と、該チップ8装着側のリードフレーム7と該チップ8とを電気的に接続するワイヤ9と、該チップ8を装着しない半導体チップ非装着面10に装着されたリード部(図示しない)とで形成されていると共に、該チップ非装着面10は、リード部が突出せずに水平に構成されており、リードフレーム7には鉛直方向に貫通した空隙部11が形成されている。
【0012】
従って、上下型1・2を搭載した前記装置を用いて、リードフレーム7の複数個の該チップ8とワイヤ9とを上下型1・2を型締めして圧縮成形で樹脂封止すると樹脂成形体12を形成し、樹脂封止しない該チップ装着側にフレーム外周部23が形成されると共に、空隙部11にも樹脂が浸漬するが、該チップ非装着面10には当該樹脂が廻り込まないように、離型フィルム4を隙間なく確実に密着するように構成されている。
また、圧縮成形で樹脂封止された樹脂成形体12を形成後に、樹脂成形体12が硬化するのに必要な所要時間経過後に、樹脂成形体12が加熱溶融化された樹脂材料である溶融樹脂13から硬化樹脂14となり、つまりは、硬化された樹脂成形体12を装着したリードフレーム7である樹脂成形済基板15(製品)が完成される(図8参照)。
【0013】
また、上型1は、図1に示すように、例えば、離型フィルム4を介してリードフレーム7を金型内の所定位置へ供給するほぼ直上部に位置し且つ上型1から着脱自在に取付け・取外しすることができて、例えば、ゴム・スポンジ・金属・セラミック等の多孔質材料を用いた多孔性部材16と、その多孔性部材16と連通し且つ上型1を貫通した貫通孔17と、その貫通孔17の経路から離型フィルム4を吸引したり、離型フィルム4と該チップ非装着面10とが密着するように多孔性部材16から、例えば、空気(圧縮空気)・窒素ガス・炭酸ガス等の気体を離型フィルム4に対して圧送する気体吸引圧送機構(図示しない)と、上型面3に離型フィルム4を吸引して上型1を貫通した多孔性部材16の外周囲に位置し且つ任意の箇所にあるフィルム用吸引孔18と、そのフィルム吸引孔18の経路と連通して離型フィルム4を吸引するフィルム吸引機構(図示しない)とから構成されている。
なお、気体吸引圧送機構には、気体を圧送する機能(圧送機能)と気体を吸引する機能(吸引機能)との両方の機能を兼ね備えており、圧縮成形で樹脂封止する段階に応じて、適宜に変換して運転したり、停止したりできるように構成されている。
また、前述した気体吸引圧送機構の吸引機能とフィルム吸引機構とは、所定の張力にて張架された離型フィルム4を吸引して上型面3に緊張して被覆できるように連動して動作することができるように構成されている。
【0014】
また、下型2は、図1に示すように、例えば、リードフレーム7に装着された該チップ装着側を下方向に向けた状態で供給セットできる下型面19の所定位置にあるセット用凹所20と、リードフレーム7を凹所20に供給セットすることで樹脂成形体12が嵌装セットされて圧縮成形で樹脂封止する前述したキャビティ形成部5と、そのキャビティ形成部5の底面を形成し、且つ、その底面位置が図例におけるキャビティ形成位置A(最上面位置)から樹脂材料を供給する樹脂供給位置B(最下面位置)まで上下に摺動する摺動部材21と、キャビティ形成部5に供給される樹脂材料を加熱溶融化する少なくとも下型2(摺動部材21も含む)に埋設された加熱ヒータ22(加熱手段)とが設けられている。
なお、摺動部材21は、下型2から着脱自在に装設することができ、且つ、上下型1・2の型締め時に加熱溶融化された樹脂材料を樹脂供給位置Bからキャビティ形成位置Aの底面位置まで上動して所要圧力で圧縮成形するように構成されている。
また、可動する下型2を型締め・型開きさせるために設けたプレス手段(図示しない)は、任意の水圧・油圧・気体等の作動流体を使用した機構や、電動プレスによる機構によって、下型2(摺動部材21も含む)が上下に可動するように構成されている。
また、上下型1・2の型締時において、摺動部材21は、単独で上動して所要圧力で圧縮成形したり(図6参照)、樹脂成形体12が成形されて硬化して樹脂成形済基板15が完成後にキャビティ形成位置Aから樹脂供給位置Bへ単独で下動して硬化した樹脂成形体12から離型したり(図7参照)する上下に摺動することができる、つまりは、単独で上下に摺動部材21を摺動するのには、前述したプレス手段における任意の機構や任意のシリンダ・モータ・弾性部材等を駆動源とする駆動機構を備えたクランプ手段を設けて構成されている。
従って、上下型1・2の型締め時に、摺動部材21を単独で上動して圧縮成形における所要圧力により、離型フィルム4と該チップ非装着面10とを隙間なく確実に密着するように構成されている。
【0015】
ここで、上下型1・2と離型フィルム4とを用いて、リードフレーム7の樹脂成形体11を圧縮成形で樹脂封止する方法について、以下に説明する。
【0016】
まず、図1に示すように、上下型1・2が型開きした状態で、上下型1・2間には、所定の張力にて張架した離型フィルム4が水平状態で保持されており、下型2に装設された摺動部材21は、樹脂供給位置Bで待機する。
【0017】
次に、図2に示すように、上下型1・2が型開きした状態で、離型フィルム4を上動させ伸張させて上型面3に当接させ、次に、上型面3に当接した離型フィルム4が、上型面3に貫通したフィルム吸引孔18の経路を経て該フィルム吸引機構から、並びに、上型面3とほぼ同一平面上にある多孔性部材16の表面から多孔性部材16の空間形成部を通り貫通孔17の経路を経て気体圧送吸引機構から、つまりは、その両機構から空気を吸引して所定の張力にて張架された離型フィルム4を上型面3に緊張させて被覆させる。
また、樹脂材料供給機構から、例えば、所要量の顆粒樹脂6(樹脂材料)をキャビティ形成部5の底面における樹脂供給位置Bに供給するのは、図1における上型面3に離型フィルム4を緊張させて被覆させる状態から図3におけるリードフレーム7を金型内へ供給するまでに実施するればよく、この場合は、図2の状態で顆粒樹脂6を供給する。
このとき、顆粒樹脂6をキャビティ形成部5へ供給前に、予め加熱ヒータ22にて金型を顆粒樹脂6が加熱溶融化できるぼぼ所定温度近傍まで加熱しておくことが好ましい。
【0018】
次に、図3に示すように、上下型1・2が型開きした状態で、且つ、上型面3に離型フィルム4を被覆した状態で、複数個の該チップ8とワイヤ9とを装着したリードフレーム7の該チップ装着側を下方向に向けて下型面19の所定位置である凹所20の直上部にリードフレーム7を供給する。
なお、顆粒樹脂6が加熱溶融化できる所定温度に金型を加熱して顆粒樹脂6を加熱溶融化して溶融樹脂13とするタイミングは、図2におけるキャビティ形成部5に顆粒樹脂6が供給されてから図5における上下型1・2を型締めするまでの間に実施すればよく、この場合は、図3の状態で顆粒樹脂6が溶融樹脂13となる。
【0019】
次に、図4に示すように、上下型1・2が型開きした状態で、且つ、上型面3に離型フィルム4を被覆した状態で、下型面19の所定位置である凹所20の直上部にあるリードフレーム7を凹所20に供給セットする。
このとき、凹所20に供給セットされた樹脂成形前のリードフレーム7における複数個の該チップ8・ワイヤ9と、キャビティ形成部5に供給された所要量の顆粒樹脂6(完全に溶融樹脂13となるまでの状態を含む)の表面とが、接触しないように、適宜に、キャビティ形成部5の底面(摺動部材21の天面)における樹脂供給位置Bをクランプ手段にて摺動部材21を単独で上下に駆動させて底面位置を適宜に変更して実施するように構成されている。
【0020】
次に、図5に示すように、上型面3に離型フィルム4を被覆した状態で、且つ、リードフレーム7を凹所20に供給セットした状態で、且つ、キャビティ形成部5の底面における樹脂供給位置Bに加熱溶融化された顆粒樹脂6を供給した状態で、上下型1・2における上型面3と下型面19との間に離型フィルム3を狭持して型締めする、つまりは、下型2(摺動部材21を含む)が上方向にプレス手段にて可動することにより固定された上型1と離型フィルム4を介して型締めするように構成されている。
このとき、図5におけるリードフレーム7の鉛直方向の長さ(厚み)よりも凹所20における鉛直方向の長さのほうが高く形成されているので、下型面19とリードフレーム7のフレーム外周部23とは狭持しないように構成されている。また、図5における上下型1・2の型締め時において、気体圧送吸引機構の吸引機能から圧送機能に変換して貫通孔17の経路から多孔性部材16の空間形成部を通して多孔性部材16の表面を経て気体を圧送することにより、離型フィルム4と該チップ非装着面10とを密着するように構成されている。
【0021】
次に、図6に示すように、上下型1・2を型締めした状態で、下型2に装設された摺動部材21が前述したプレス手段とは別のクランプ手段にて単独でキャビティ形成部5の底面におけるキャビティ形成位置Aまで上動するのと同時に、キャビティ形成部5の底面を形成する摺動部材21の天面上に供給された溶融樹脂13も上昇してキャビティ形成部5内にある複数個の該チップ8とワイヤ9とを浸漬内包してキャビティ形成部5内を所要圧力で圧縮成形する。
このとき、上下型1・2が型締め時に、図5における摺動部材21が樹脂供給位置Bに待機した状態から、図6における摺動部材21がキャビティ形成位置Aに到達する状態までの間において、任意のタイミングで多孔性部材16の表面から気体を常時圧送することも可能であると共に、例えば、リードフレーム7の空隙部11に溶融樹脂13が浸漬する直前に瞬時に圧送したりするように、適宜に変更して実施できるように構成されている。
従って、上下型1・2の型締め時に、キャビティ形成部5に嵌装された複数個の該チップ8とワイヤ9とのほぼ直下部から摺動部材21が上動することで摺動部材21の天面上にある所要量の溶融樹脂13も上昇して複数個の該チップ8とワイヤ9とを浸漬内包して所要圧力で圧縮成形するので、電子部品である該チップ8を装着したリードフレーム7の該チップ非装着面10と離型フィルム4とを隙間なく確実に密着して、該チップ非装着面10の樹脂ばりやワイヤ不良や過剰な樹脂を使用する樹脂成形上の問題を効率良く解決することができる。
【0022】
次に、図示していないが、図6の状態のままで、キャビティ形成部5内にある溶融樹脂13が硬化するのに必要な所要時間経過後に樹脂成形体12が硬化して硬化樹脂14を形成して、樹脂成形済基板15(製品)を完成させる。
【0023】
次に、図7で示すように、上型面3に離型フィルム4を被覆した状態で、上下型1・2を型開きする、つまりは、離型フィルム4を上型面3に被覆されて固定された上型1から下型2(摺動部材21を含む)が下方向にプレス手段にて可動することにより型開きすることになる。
また、図7に示すように、下型2に装設された摺動部材21をキャビティ形成位置Aから樹脂供給位置Bまでクランプ手段にて硬化した樹脂成形体12の底面と離型するタイミングは、樹脂成形済基板15が完成してから図8における金型外部へ樹脂成形済基板15を取出すまでの間に、適宜に実施すればよい。
また、硬化した樹脂成形体12の底面が摺動部材21の天面より離型しているから、凹所20に供給セットされている樹脂成形済基板15を凹所20のほぼ直上部に容易に取出すことができる。
このとき、気体圧送吸引機構の圧送機能から吸引機能に変換してフィルム吸引機構と同様に、離型フィルム4を上型面3に吸引して被覆するように構成されている。
【0024】
次に、図8に示すように、上下型1・2を型開きした状態で、凹所20のぼぼ直上部にある樹脂成形済基板15を金型外部へ取出すと共に、上型面に被覆されていた離型フィルム4を気体吸引圧送機構とフィルム吸引機構の吸引機能を停止させて下動させて所定の張力にて張架させて水平状態で待機させる。
【0025】
次に、図示していないが、使用済の離型フィルム4を上下型1・2間から金型外部へ送り出されて使用前の離型フィルム4が金型内へ供給され、次に、前述した図1から図8までの圧縮成形で樹脂封止する工程を連続して実施することができる。
【0026】
即ち、電子部品である半導体チップ8を装着したリードフレーム7の半導体チップ非装着面10と離型フィルム3とを隙間なく確実に密着して、該チップ非装着面10の樹脂ばりやワイヤ不良や過剰な樹脂を使用する樹脂成形上の問題を効率良く解決することができる、電子部品の樹脂封止成形方法及び装置を提供することができる。

ここでいう微粘着層とは、リードフレーム7における該チップ非装着面10と離型フィルム4に形成された微粘着層が、圧縮成形で樹脂封止して樹脂成形済基板5を金型外部へ取出す際に、微粘着層を該チップ非装着面10に残存しない程度、つまりは、微粘着フィルムから樹脂成形済基板5を容易に剥離することができる程度で形成することになる。
また、本実施例で用いた装置に離型フィルム4から微粘着フィルムへ変更させて圧縮成形で樹脂封止する場合、微粘着フィルムの粘着力を利用することで、図3・図4におけるリードフレーム7を凹所20に供給セットするのではなく、上型面3に緊張して被覆された微粘着フィルムにリードフレーム7の該チップ非装着面10を密着させて供給して、樹脂成形済基板15が完成して図7における上下型1・2の型開き時に、微粘着フィルムが樹脂成形済基板5の該チップ非装着面10から剥離させるか、或いは、微粘着フィルムと該チップ非装着面10とが密着した状態で金型外部へ搬送されて、金型外部に設けた微粘着フィルムを剥離する任意の剥離手段を用いて剥離するような構成で実施してもよい。

【0029】
また、他の実施例として、本実施例で用いたフィルム吸引機構や気体吸引圧送機構においては、離型フィルム4が上型面3に緊張して被覆するのであれば、図例に示すようなフィルム吸引孔12と多孔性部材21・貫通孔17とを組合せた構造・方法に限定されることなく、例えば、フィルム吸引孔12のみで離型フィルム4を圧送せず吸引するだけで被覆したり、適宜に選択して実施してもよい。
【0030】
また、他の実施例として、本実施例で用いた装置を用いて、下型面19の所定位置おける凹所20を形成せずに、離型フィルム4を介して上型面3と下型面19との間で、リードフレーム7におけるフレーム外周部23を狭持するように実施してもよい。
この場合においては、本実施例で用いた装置における下型2の摺動部材21の外周囲に備えられ、且つ、リードフレーム7のフレーム外周部23に当接し、且つ、任意の弾性手段を付設された任意の狭持部材を設けることにより、リードフレーム7のフレーム外周部23を弾性支受して狭持するように実施してもよい。

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, as a trend in recent years, the thickness of the lead frame has become thinner and the shape of the lead frame has become larger, and a large number of semiconductor chips arranged in a matrix on the lead frame have been mounted, and the chip itself has become The size of the wires, which are electrically connected to the chip itself, have become extremely thin and multi-pin.
From the above, the upper and lower molds are clamped in a state where the release film is sucked and covered on the upper mold surface, and the resin is injected into the cavity in which the chip and the wire are fitted by the conventional transfer molding. At this time, the flow of the resin is in the horizontal direction, and the lead frame itself is pressed by the resin pressure due to the resin pressure from the horizontal direction and becomes wavy, so that the release film and the chip non-mounting surface are in contact with each other. Since a gap is generated between the chips and the chip is not completely adhered, there is a problem that the resin flows around the chip non-mounting surface and resin burrs are generated.
In addition, the length (thickness) of the cavity in the vertical direction is also reduced, and the area of the bottom surface of the cavity is increased, so that wire failure such as bending or breakage of the wire due to the resin pressure from the horizontal direction occurs, There was a problem that unfilling failure occurred because the resin did not spread throughout.
Furthermore, the amount of resin used when injecting a plurality of chips and wires fitted into the cavity through the resin passage with resin becomes unnecessary, and the amount of resin in the resin passage portion also needs to be used extra. In addition, in order to improve the adhesion between the resin molded body and the substrate, since a high-density resin material is used, an excessively expensive resin material will be used. Yield will be significantly reduced.
[0006]
In other words, the present invention provides an electronic component that can reliably solve the problem of resin molding by securely adhering a release film to a semiconductor chip non-mounting surface of a lead frame on which a semiconductor chip as an electronic component is mounted, without any gap. It is an object of the present invention to provide a resin sealing molding method and apparatus.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the present invention provides a method for resin-encapsulating and molding an electronic component using a resin-encapsulating mold including an upper die and a lower die. In a state in which the lead portion of the lead frame on which the chip is not mounted in the lead frame on which the chip is mounted is covered with a release film, the upper and lower molds are clamped and resin-sealed with a heat-melted resin material.

[0014]
As shown in FIG. 1, for example, the lower mold 2 is provided with a setting recess at a predetermined position on a lower mold surface 19 which can be supplied and set with the chip mounting side mounted on the lead frame 7 facing downward. Location 20, the above-described cavity forming section 5 in which the resin molded body 12 is fitted and set by supplying and setting the lead frame 7 to the concave section 20 and sealing the resin by compression molding, and the bottom surface of the cavity forming section 5 A sliding member 21 which is formed and slides up and down from a cavity forming position A (top position) in the illustrated example to a resin supply position B (bottom surface position) for supplying a resin material; A heater 22 (heating means) embedded in at least the lower mold 2 (including the sliding member 21) for heating and melting the resin material supplied to the section 5 is provided.
The sliding member 21 can be removably mounted on the lower mold 2, and the resin material heated and melted at the time of clamping the upper and lower molds 1 and 2 is moved from the resin supply position B to the cavity forming position A. And is formed so as to move up to the bottom surface position and perform compression molding at a required pressure.

Further, when the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are clamped, the sliding member 21 moves upward alone and is compression-molded at a required pressure (see FIG. 6), or the resin molded body 12 is molded and cured to form a resin. After the molded substrate 15 is completed, it can be individually moved downward from the cavity forming position A to the resin supply position B and released from the cured resin molded body 12 (see FIG. 7), and can slide up and down. In order to independently slide the sliding member 21 up and down, there is provided a clamping means provided with an arbitrary mechanism in the above-described pressing means or a driving mechanism using an arbitrary cylinder, motor, elastic member or the like as a driving source.

[0015]
Here, a method of resin-sealing the resin molded body 11 of the lead frame 7 by compression molding using the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 and the release film 4 will be described below.
[0016]
First, as shown in FIG. 1, in a state where the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are opened, a release film 4 stretched with a predetermined tension is held between the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 in a horizontal state. The sliding member 21 mounted on the lower mold 2 waits at the resin supply position B.
[0017]
Next, as shown in FIG. 2, in a state where the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are opened, the release film 4 is moved up and extended to abut on the upper mold surface 3. The abutting release film 4 passes through the path of the film suction hole 18 penetrating the upper mold surface 3 from the film suction mechanism and from the surface of the porous member 16 which is substantially flush with the upper mold surface 3. The release film 4 stretched at a predetermined tension by suctioning air from the gas pressure feeding and suction mechanism via the path of the through hole 17 through the space forming portion of the porous member 16, that is, by sucking air from both mechanisms, is lifted up. The mold surface 3 is tensioned and coated.
The supply of the required amount of the granular resin 6 (resin material) to the resin supply position B on the bottom surface of the cavity forming portion 5 from the resin material supply mechanism is performed, for example, by the release film 4 on the upper mold surface 3 in FIG. 3 may be performed until the lead frame 7 in FIG. 3 is supplied into the mold. In this case, the granular resin 6 is supplied in the state of FIG.
At this time, before the granular resin 6 is supplied to the cavity forming section 5, it is preferable that the mold is previously heated by the heater 22 to approximately a predetermined temperature at which the granular resin 6 can be heated and melted.
[0018]
Next, as shown in FIG. 3, in a state where the upper and lower molds 1 and 2 are opened, and in a state where the upper mold surface 3 is covered with the release film 4, a plurality of the chips 8 and the wires 9 are connected. With the chip mounting side of the mounted lead frame 7 facing downward, the lead frame 7 is supplied just above the recess 20 which is a predetermined position on the lower mold surface 19.
The timing at which the granular resin 6 is supplied to the cavity forming section 5 in FIG. 5 until the upper and lower dies 1, 2 in FIG. 5 are clamped. In this case, the granular resin 6 becomes the molten resin 13 in the state of FIG.
[0019]
Next, as shown in FIG. 4, in a state where the upper and lower molds 1 and 2 are opened, and in a state where the upper mold surface 3 is covered with the release film 4, a concave portion which is a predetermined position of the lower mold surface 19 is formed. The lead frame 7 located directly above 20 is supplied and set in the recess 20.
At this time, the plurality of chips 8 and wires 9 in the lead frame 7 before resin molding set in the recess 20 and the required amount of granular resin 6 (completely molten resin 13) supplied to the cavity forming portion 5 are formed. The resin supply position B on the bottom surface of the cavity forming portion 5 (the top surface of the sliding member 21) is appropriately adjusted by the clamping means so that the surface of the sliding member 21 does not contact with the surface of the sliding member 21 (including the state until the sliding member 21 is closed). Are independently driven up and down, and the bottom position is appropriately changed.
[0020]
Next, as shown in FIG. 5, in a state where the upper mold surface 3 is covered with the release film 4, and in a state where the lead frame 7 is supplied and set in the recess 20, and at the bottom surface of the cavity forming portion 5. With the granular resin 6 heated and melted supplied to the resin supply position B, the release film 3 is clamped between the upper mold surface 3 and the lower mold surface 19 of the upper and lower molds 1 and 2 to clamp the mold. In other words, the lower mold 2 (including the sliding member 21) is configured to be clamped via the release film 4 and the upper mold 1 fixed by being moved upward by the pressing means. .
At this time, since the vertical length in the recess 20 is formed to be higher than the vertical length (thickness) of the lead frame 7 in FIG. 5, the lower mold surface 19 and the outer peripheral portion of the frame of the lead frame 7 are formed. 23 is not held. Further, when the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 in FIG. 5 are clamped, the suction function of the gas pressure-feeding suction mechanism is changed to the pressure-feeding function, and the porous member 16 is passed through the space of the porous member 16 from the path of the through hole 17. The structure is such that the release film 4 and the chip non-mounting surface 10 are brought into close contact with each other by pumping the gas through the surface.
[0021]
Next, as shown in FIG. 6, in a state where the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are clamped, the sliding member 21 mounted on the lower die 2 is individually cavity-clamped by a clamp means different from the press means described above. The molten resin 13 supplied on the top surface of the sliding member 21 forming the bottom surface of the cavity forming portion 5 rises simultaneously with the upward movement to the cavity forming position A on the bottom surface of the forming portion 5 and the cavity forming portion 5 A plurality of the chips 8 and the wires 9 inside are immersed and encapsulated, and the inside of the cavity forming portion 5 is compression molded at a required pressure.
At this time, from the state where the sliding member 21 in FIG. 5 waits at the resin supply position B when the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are closed, from the state where the sliding member 21 reaches the cavity forming position A in FIG. In this case, it is also possible to constantly pump gas from the surface of the porous member 16 at an arbitrary timing, and to instantaneously pump gas immediately before the molten resin 13 is immersed in the void 11 of the lead frame 7. In addition, it is configured to be able to be implemented by being changed appropriately.
Therefore, when the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are clamped, the sliding member 21 moves upward from almost immediately below the plurality of chips 8 and the wires 9 fitted in the cavity forming portion 5, thereby causing the sliding member 21 to move upward. The required amount of molten resin 13 on the top surface of the lead also rises, and a plurality of the chips 8 and wires 9 are immersed therein and compression-molded at a required pressure. The chip non-mounting surface 10 of the frame 7 and the release film 4 are securely adhered to each other without any gap, and the resin non-burring and wire failure of the chip non-mounting surface 10 and the problem of resin molding using excessive resin are efficiently performed. Can be solved well.

Next, although not shown, the resin molded body 12 is cured after a required time required for the molten resin 13 in the cavity forming portion 5 to be cured in the state of FIG. Then, the resin-molded substrate 15 (product) is completed.
[0023]
Next, as shown in FIG. 7, the upper and lower molds 1 and 2 are opened while the upper mold surface 3 is covered with the release film 4, that is, the release film 4 is covered with the upper mold surface 3. The lower die 2 (including the sliding member 21) is moved downward by the pressing means from the upper die 1 fixed by the pressing, so that the die is opened.
Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the timing at which the sliding member 21 mounted on the lower mold 2 is released from the bottom surface of the resin molded body 12 cured from the cavity forming position A to the resin supply position B by the clamp means is released. The process may be appropriately performed between completion of the resin-molded substrate 15 and removal of the resin-molded substrate 15 to the outside of the mold in FIG.
Further, since the bottom surface of the cured resin molded body 12 is separated from the top surface of the sliding member 21, the resin molded substrate 15 supplied and set in the concave portion 20 can be easily placed almost immediately above the concave portion 20. Can be taken out.
At this time, the pressure-feeding function of the gas pressure-feeding suction mechanism is converted into a suction function, and the release film 4 is sucked and covered on the upper mold surface 3 similarly to the film suction mechanism.
[0024]
Next, as shown in FIG. 8, in a state where the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 are opened, the resin-molded substrate 15 immediately above the concave portion 20 is taken out of the mold, and the upper mold surface is covered. The release function of the release film 4 is stopped by stopping the suction function of the gas suction / pressure feeding mechanism and the film suction mechanism, stretched by a predetermined tension, and kept in a horizontal state.
[0025]
Next, although not shown, the used release film 4 is sent out of the mold from between the upper and lower molds 1 and 2 and the release film 4 before use is supplied into the mold. The steps of sealing the resin by the compression molding shown in FIGS. 1 to 8 can be continuously performed.

When the substrate is taken out, the adhesive layer is formed to such an extent that the adhesive layer does not remain on the chip non-mounting surface 10, that is, to such an extent that the resin molded substrate 5 can be easily peeled off from the adhesive film.
Further, when the device used in this example is changed from the release film 4 to a slightly adhesive film and sealed with a resin by compression molding, the lead in FIGS. 3 and 4 is utilized by utilizing the adhesive force of the slightly adhesive film. Rather than setting the frame 7 in the recess 20, the chip non-mounting surface 10 of the lead frame 7 is supplied in close contact with the slightly adhesive film coated on the upper mold surface 3 with tension, and the resin is molded. When the substrate 15 is completed and the upper and lower dies 1 and 2 in FIG. 7 are opened, the slightly adhesive film is peeled off from the non-chip mounting surface 10 of the resin molded substrate 5, or the slightly adhesive film and the non-chip It may be carried out in a configuration in which the surface 10 is conveyed to the outside of the mold in a state where the surface 10 is in close contact with the mold, and is peeled off by using any peeling means for peeling the slightly adhesive film provided outside the mold.
[0028]
Further, as another embodiment, when the release film 4 is coated on the chip non-mounting surface 10, the release film 4 is cut into the void portion 11 of the lead frame 7, and the resin is sealed by compression molding to complete the process. The resin molded substrate 5 to be formed, that is, the resin molded substrate 5 having a stand-off shape may be formed.
[0029]
Further, as another embodiment, in the film suction mechanism and the gas suction / pressure feeding mechanism used in this embodiment, if the release film 4 covers the upper mold surface 3 by being tensioned, as shown in the example of the drawing. It is not limited to the structure and method in which the film suction hole 12 is combined with the porous member 21 and the through hole 17. For example, the release film 4 may be covered only by suctioning the release film 4 without pressure by using only the film suction hole 12. May be appropriately selected and implemented.
[0030]
As another embodiment, the upper mold surface 3 and the lower mold surface are interposed via the release film 4 without forming the recess 20 at a predetermined position of the lower mold surface 19 using the apparatus used in this embodiment. The embodiment may be implemented such that the outer peripheral portion 23 of the lead frame 7 is held between the surface 19 and the surface 19.
In this case, the elastic member is provided on the outer periphery of the sliding member 21 of the lower mold 2 in the device used in the present embodiment, abuts on the frame outer peripheral portion 23 of the lead frame 7, and is provided with any elastic means. By providing an arbitrary holding member described above, the frame outer peripheral portion 23 of the lead frame 7 may be elastically supported and held.
[0031]
Further, as another embodiment, in the mold in the apparatus used in the present embodiment, the mold structure of the fixed upper mold 1 and the movable lower mold 2 has been described. Or may be carried out so that a movable upper die and a fixed lower die are provided.
[0032]
