Description
本発明は、携帯電話、移動体通信、無線通信等に適用される高周波モジュールの製造方
法に関する。
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a high-frequency module applied to a mobile phone, mobile communication, wireless communication, etc.
Regarding the law .
携帯電話、無線LANの市場は右肩上がりの成長が想定されており、第3世代の携帯電話の生産数は、急激に増加している。携帯電話の機能は第3世代に進歩するに従って、カメラ内蔵、テレビの受信、他の無線通信(ブルーツース、赤外線通信、無線LAN)との併用化も進んでおり、高周波回路の占有面積は年々減少している。その為、携帯電話の部品は小形軽量化、複合化がめざましく、個々の性能をアップしつつ、部品点数の削減、低消費電力化への要求に対応する必要がある。 The mobile phone and wireless LAN markets are expected to grow rapidly, and the number of third-generation mobile phones produced is increasing rapidly. As mobile phone functions advance to the third generation, built-in cameras, TV reception, and other wireless communications (Bluetooth, infrared communications, wireless LAN) are also being used together, and the area occupied by high-frequency circuits decreases year by year. is doing. For this reason, mobile phone parts are rapidly becoming smaller and lighter, and it is necessary to meet the demands for reducing the number of parts and reducing power consumption while improving individual performance.
このような要求を実現するため、チップセットの集積化、性能向上が進んでおり、同様に周辺の高周波部品も集積化した高周波モジュールが提案されている。 In order to realize such requirements, integration of chipsets and improvement in performance are advancing, and high frequency modules in which peripheral high frequency components are also integrated have been proposed.
高周波モジュールにおいて発熱性を伴うパワーアンプ等の半導体素子は、自身の小型化と、移動体通信システムにおける伝送容量の増加や伝送スピードの高速化に伴い大きな高周波電力を取り扱うため、半導体素子の単位面積当たりの発熱量が大幅に増加している。その放熱対策として、放熱フィンを取り付ける方法や、パワーアンプが搭載される誘電体基板に熱伝導率が大きな高熱伝導セラミックスである窒化アルミニウム等を用いる方法があり、良好な放熱性を得ることが出来る。さらに特許文献1では、パワーアンプを配線基板の背面に配置し外部電気回路基板に半田付けすることで放熱性を向上する技術が提案されている。
Semiconductor elements such as power amplifiers with high heat generation in high-frequency modules are designed to handle large high-frequency power due to their own miniaturization and increased transmission capacity and transmission speed in mobile communication systems. The amount of heat generated per hit has increased significantly. As a heat dissipation measure, there are a method of attaching a heat dissipation fin and a method of using aluminum nitride, which is a high thermal conductivity ceramic having a high thermal conductivity, on the dielectric substrate on which the power amplifier is mounted, and good heat dissipation can be obtained. . Further,
また、高周波モジュールにおいてパワーアンプの近傍に構成される高周波フィルタ装置等に用いられる表面弾性波素子は、一般的にリチウムタンタレート等の圧電体基板に表面弾性波を伝播させるための櫛形電極が形成されたものであるが、圧電体基板自身の電気的特性が温度変化による影響を大きく受けるため、モジュール内でパワーアンプ等の発熱体から離れた位置に配置することが必要不可欠となっている。このため、従来のパワーアンプと表面弾性波素子等とを一体に形成した高周波モジュールは、近年の移動体通信用情報端末機等の小型化・軽量化・高密度化・低価格化のための要求に十分に応えることができないという問題点があった。 A surface acoustic wave element used in a high frequency filter device or the like configured in the vicinity of a power amplifier in a high frequency module is generally formed with a comb-shaped electrode for propagating surface acoustic waves to a piezoelectric substrate such as lithium tantalate. However, since the electrical characteristics of the piezoelectric substrate itself are greatly affected by temperature changes, it is indispensable to dispose the piezoelectric substrate in a position away from a heating element such as a power amplifier. For this reason, a high frequency module in which a conventional power amplifier and a surface acoustic wave element are integrally formed is used for downsizing, weight reduction, high density, and price reduction of information terminals for mobile communication in recent years. There was a problem that the request could not be fully met.
これに対し、例えば特許文献2、特許文献3には、パワーアンプである能動回路素子と、表面弾性波素子である受動回路素子をモジュール基板上に搭載した高周波モジュールにおいて、パワーアンプから表面弾性波への伝熱対策を施した構造が提案されている。
特許文献2、3に開示された高周波モジュールでは、パワーアンプからの発熱によって、表面弾性波素子の特性変化が問題となる為、モジュール内の伝熱構造を改善することによって表面弾性波素子の特性劣化を抑えることが出来る。しかし、パワーアンプ等の半導体素子は年々小型化しており、モジュールの放熱経路が減少しているので、単位面積当たりの放熱量は増加している。
In the high-frequency module disclosed in
通常、半導体素子は導電性樹脂、半田等の接着剤を用いてモジュール基板に接続されているが、この接着剤は、金属材料の熱伝導率に比べて一桁小さい値となっている。その結果、パワーアンプで発生した熱は、接着剤、サーマルビアを通して充分に放熱されない為に熱抵抗が高くなり、モジュール内部の温度上昇、表面弾性波素子の特性劣化、パワーアンプの効率低下を招いていた。 Normally, the semiconductor element is connected to the module substrate using an adhesive such as conductive resin or solder, but this adhesive has a value that is an order of magnitude smaller than the thermal conductivity of the metal material. As a result, the heat generated in the power amplifier is not sufficiently dissipated through the adhesive and thermal vias, resulting in a high thermal resistance, leading to an increase in the temperature inside the module, deterioration of the characteristics of the surface acoustic wave device, and a reduction in the efficiency of the power amplifier. It was.
従って、本発明の目的は、上記の点に鑑み、パワーアンプなどの半導体素子から発生する熱を効率よく放熱し、モジュール内部の温度を低減し、表面弾性波素子などの表面実装部品の特性、半導体素子の効率を改善し、かつ小型で高性能な、携帯型情報端末機、無線通信等の電子機器・電子装置等に好適な高周波モジュールを提供することにある。 Therefore, in view of the above points, the object of the present invention is to efficiently dissipate heat generated from a semiconductor element such as a power amplifier, reduce the temperature inside the module, and the characteristics of surface-mounted components such as surface acoustic wave elements, An object of the present invention is to provide a high-frequency module that improves the efficiency of a semiconductor element and is suitable for electronic devices and electronic devices such as portable information terminals and wireless communications that are small and have high performance.

以下、図面に基づいて本発明の製造方法により得られる高周波モジュールについて詳細に説明する。
Hereinafter, the high frequency module obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
図1は、高周波モジュールの一例を説明するための概略断面図である。この図1に示される高周波モジュール1は、フロントエンドモジュールと呼ばれるモジュール製品であり、複数の誘電体層を積層することによって誘電体基板2が形成されており、この誘電体基板2の表面には、チップコンデンサ、チップ抵抗素子、チップインダクタなどの表面実装部品3が実装されている。さらに、この誘電体基板2の表面には、パワーアップとなる半導体素子4もあわせて実装されている。

また、この高周波モジュール1によれば、誘電体基板2の内部には、配線回路層5や、垂直導体6によって3次元的な高周波回路が形成されている。また、誘電体基板2の底面には、グランド層7、他の外部回路と接続するための端子電極8が形成されている。
Further, according to the
また、半導体素子4の直下には、半導体素子4から発生した熱を誘電体基板2の底面側に伝熱するためのサーマルビア9が形成されており、表面導体層10およびグランド層7に接続されている。

また、誘電体基板2の表面には、さらに圧電体からなる表面弾性波素子11が実装されている。場合によっては誘電体基板1表面には、整合回路パターンなどの高周波回路パターンなども導体材料によって被着形成されている。
A surface
本発明によれば、これら表面実装部品3、半導体素子4、圧電体からなる表面弾性波素子11が接続、ボンディング、またはフェースダウンボンディングされるとともに、表面実装部品3,半導体素子4、圧電体からなる表面弾性波素子11が封止用樹脂12によって封止されている。
According to the present invention, the surface-mounted
本発明の高周波モジュールにおいては、表面実装部品3および表面弾性波素子11は、いずれも半田13によって表面導体層14に電気的に接続され実装されている。一方、半導体素子4は、実質的に有機分を含まない溶融銀層15によって表面導体層10に接続され実装されていることが重要である。
In the high frequency module of the present invention, the
この溶融銀層15は、平均粒径が20nm以下、特に15nm以下の微細な銀粒子を用い、これを300℃以下の温度で熱処理することによって形成することができる。
The
この第1の実施の形態によれば、従来、平均粒径が0.5〜10μmのAg粉末を用いた場合、750〜800℃の温度で熱処理しなければ焼成できなかったのに対して、平均粒径が20nm以下の銀粒子を用いることによって、300℃以下の温度で焼成することができる。その結果、この焼成後の銀層は、銀粉末が溶融した状態で固化しているために、高純度の高熱伝導の銀層を形成することができる。 According to the first embodiment, conventionally, when Ag powder having an average particle size of 0.5 to 10 μm was used, it could not be fired unless it was heat-treated at a temperature of 750 to 800 ° C. By using silver particles having an average particle size of 20 nm or less, firing can be performed at a temperature of 300 ° C. or less. As a result, since the silver layer after firing is solidified in a state where the silver powder is melted, a high-purity and highly heat-conductive silver layer can be formed.
その結果、従来、合成樹脂と銀粒子との混合ペーストを硬化させて半導体素子を実装していた場合に比較して、熱伝導率を200W/m・K以上に高めることができ、半導体素子からの放熱性を大きく改善することができる。 As a result, the thermal conductivity can be increased to 200 W / m · K or more compared to the case where a semiconductor element is mounted by curing a mixed paste of synthetic resin and silver particles, The heat dissipation can be greatly improved.
このような溶融銀層を形成するには、平均粒径が20nm以下、特に15nm以下の微細な銀粒子に対して、150℃以下で揮発するような有機溶媒と混合してペーストを調製し、これを誘電体基板2の表面の表面導体層10の表面に塗布後、半導体素子4を載置し、300℃以下の温度で熱処理することによって半導体素子4を表面導体層10の表面に実装することができる。
In order to form such a molten silver layer, a paste is prepared by mixing with an organic solvent that volatilizes at 150 ° C. or less with respect to fine silver particles having an average particle diameter of 20 nm or less, particularly 15 nm or less, After coating this on the surface of the
ここで用いられる有機溶媒としては、エチレングリコール、トリエチレングリコール、ジエチレングリコール、テルピネオール、ブタノールの群から選ばれる少なくとも1種が望ましく、かかる有機溶媒は、銀粒子100質量部あたり、40質量部以下の割合で添加、混合される。 The organic solvent used here is preferably at least one selected from the group of ethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, terpineol, and butanol, and the organic solvent is a proportion of 40 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of silver particles. Added and mixed.
本発明によれば、半導体素子4、及びその他の電子部品を同一の誘電体基板2の表面に実装するにあたり、表面実装部品3、表面弾性波素子11などのその他の電子部品を半導体素子4よりも先に実装するか、または後に実装するかを、その他の電子部品を実装するための半田層の形成温度に応じて種々変更することでき、半導体素子、その他の電子部品の接続信頼性を高めた高周波回路モジュールを容易に形成することができる。
According to the present invention, when mounting the
例えば、半導体素子4の実装をその他の電子部品の実装よりも先に行なう場合には、その他の電子部品の実装温度を250℃以下の半導体素子4の実装温度よりも低い温度で行なう。逆に、半導体素子4の実装をその他の電子部品の実装よりも後に行なう場合には、その他の電子部品の実装温度を250から300℃の半導体素子4の実装温度よりも高い温度で行なう。これによって、銀溶融層15の形成をいずれの場合も300℃以下で行うことが可能となる。
