As shown in (a), a copper strike plating 140 and a silver plating 150 are sequentially formed on a lead frame material (copper alloy) 120 at the semiconductor element mounting side of the die pad 111 and the tip of the inner lead 112, In the partial silver plating step, as shown in FIG. 6B, after pretreatment such as degreasing and pickling (FIGS. 6B and 6B) is performed on the externally processed lead frame material 120. Generally, copper (Cu) strike plating having a thickness of about 0.1 to 0.3 μm is applied as a base plating (FIGS. 6B and 6B), and silver plating having a thickness of 1.5 to 10 μm is applied to a desired area. (Fig. 6
After (b) and (c)), if necessary, electrolytic stripping treatment is performed to remove the thin silver (more) that is originally not needed, and then a film is formed with an organic chemical such as benzotriazole. The discoloration preventing treatment (FIG. 6 (b) (d)) was performed to prevent discoloration due to oxidation and hydroxylation. As a silver plating method, a masking jig is used to cover a predetermined area of the lead frame to spray a silver plating solution on the exposed portion to partially perform silver plating, or after the lead frame is coated with an electrodeposition resist, an electrodeposition resist is applied. For example, a method is used in which a coating resist is made into a plate, and a predetermined portion is exposed so that the plating is dipped in a plating solution to perform plating. As described above, plating only on a desired portion of the lead frame using the masking jig or the electrodeposition resist as a mask is called partial plating, and the silver plating shown in FIG. 6 is hereinafter called partial silver plating. In the case of a lead frame made of a copper alloy that has been subjected to such a treatment, the base plating does not usually peel off even during the semiconductor device manufacturing process or the semiconductor device mounting process However, it was said that there was no peeling of the copper strike part.

生の原因と考えられている。However, recently, when a lead frame made of a copper alloy which has been subjected to such a treatment is used, delamination (peeling) of the package due to the lead frame occurs in a semiconductor device assembling process and a mounting process. I have come to understand that. The delamination of the package means each interface in the IC package, that is, the interface between the IC chip (semiconductor element) and the sealing resin, the interface between the die bonding agent and the IC chip (semiconductor element), and the like. The delamination caused by the lead frame is peeling at the interface between the sealing resin and the back surface of the die pad. The occurrence of delamination at the interface between the sealing resin and the back surface of the die pad
It has gradually become clear that there is a close relationship with the surface treatment and assembly conditions of lead frames made of copper alloy.
In a lead frame made of copper alloy, which has been subjected to copper strike plating as a base plating of silver plating, and electrolytic peeling and discoloration prevention have been applied after silver plating, the heating process during the IC (semiconductor device) assembly process It is considered that delamination occurs because an oxide film is formed on the surface of the copper alloy and the adhesion strength between the oxide film and the metal (copper alloy) is insufficient.

た。Further, the conditions of the IC assembling process differ depending on the IC maker who carries out the assembling, and the surface oxidation state of the copper alloy lead frame and the oxide film forming process also differ depending on the maker, so that delamination caused by the lead frame may occur. The occurrence situation was different depending on the IC assembly manufacturer. For example, in a treatment method for preventing discoloration due to copper oxidation or hydroxylation by a benzotriazole-based coating,
The delamination prevention effect can be obtained for a manufacturer whose assembly temperature is low, but the delamination prevention effect cannot be obtained for a manufacturer whose IC assembly temperature is high. For this reason, in the past, each manufacturer has taken measures against delamination according to the IC assembly conditions.
There has been a demand for means capable of coping with delamination caused by the lead frame, regardless of IC assembly conditions.

でき、生産コストを下げることができる。With the lead frame of the present invention having the above-mentioned structure, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of delamination of the sealing resin in the semiconductor device due to the lead frame, regardless of the IC assembly conditions, and It is possible to provide a lead frame made of copper alloy that does not impair the bondability. Specifically, at least all or a predetermined portion of the surface of the copper alloy material on the side in contact with the sealing resin is plated with a thin noble metal, and the copper plating is formed on the thin noble metal plating. By forming the partial noble metal plating in the area (2), delamination (peeling) due to the copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame can be prevented. That is, in the place where a thin precious metal plating is applied to the surface of the copper alloy material, the precious metal is I
Since the copper noble metal plating applied to the surface of the copper alloy material suppresses the oxidation of the copper plated part and the copper alloy material to reduce the oxide film thickness, since the copper noble metal plating is diffused into the copper oxide film by heating during the assembly process. When forming the oxide film, the generation of Cu 2 O is given priority over that of CuO, the oxide film itself is less likely to be destroyed, and the occurrence of delamination with the sealing resin can be suppressed. In particular, on the surface of the copper portion on the back surface of the die pad that is not the side on which the semiconductor element is mounted, at least when thin precious metal plating and copper plating are sequentially performed,
It is supposed that delamination (peeling) due to the copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame on the back surface of the die pad can be effectively prevented. In addition, when a thin precious metal plating or copper plating is applied to the entire surface of the lead frame, the depletion caused by the copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame at all interfaces between the lead frame and the sealing resin including the back surface of the die pad. Lamination (peeling) can be prevented, and unlike the case where only the back surface of the die pad is partially plated, no plating jig or the like is required. The thickness of the thin precious metal plating is set to 0.5 μm or less and 0.001 μm or more, so that an appropriate film thickness that can obtain the effect of preventing delamination (peeling) is obtained. That is, the thickness of the thin precious metal plating is 0.00
If the thickness is less than 1 μm, the concentration of silver diffused during copper strike plating is small and the above effect cannot be obtained. If the thickness is more than 0.5 μm, not only the plating time and cost will be increased, but also precious metal in the IC assembly process. Is not sufficiently diffused inside the copper oxide film, it is considered that the adhesion strength with the sealing resin deteriorates. In addition, since the thin precious metal plating is applied under the copper plating, the subsequent precious metal plating process and wire bonding process can be performed in the same process as the conventional process, and the adhesion of the precious metal plating does not cause any problems. There is no problem in bonding suitability. Further, regarding the solder plating property, the copper oxide film is removed by the acid cleaning or the chemical polishing process which is performed as the pretreatment of the solder plating, and therefore, the solder plating property is good regardless of the conventional lead frame shown in FIG.
Furthermore, when performing partial noble metal plating, noble metal leak often occurs in unnecessary parts, and this may be removed by electrolytic peeling, but since a thin noble metal plating is applied below the copper plating, Only the precious metal leak portion can be removed without affecting the thin precious metal plating portion. Further, since the thin precious metal plating is applied under the copper plating, the same appearance as the conventional one shown in FIG. 6A can be secured. In addition, since the partial noble metal plating is the partial silver plating and the thin precious metal plating is the thin silver plating, it is possible to stabilize the plating relatively easily by the electrolytic plating method or the electroless plating method that has been conventionally used. Can be carried out, and the production cost can be reduced.

を下げることができる。The method of partially plating a noble metal of a lead frame according to the present invention makes it possible to manufacture the lead frame of the present invention with the above-mentioned structure. The thin precious metal plating is applied by electrolytic plating or electroless plating to simplify the control of the film thickness of the thin precious metal plating. In particular, in the above case, when thin noble metal plating or copper plating is applied to the entire lead frame, a masking jig is not required, and the work of forming a coating film for each plating can be simplified. As a method of applying a thin precious metal plating, either electrolytic plating or electroless plating can be used. However, the electrolytic plating method is suitable for increasing the plating speed and accurately controlling the plating thickness, and the complicated shape is used. The electroless plating method is suitable for obtaining the throwing power of the plating on a certain lead frame. In the above, since the partial noble metal plating is the partial silver plating and the thin noble metal plating is the thin silver plating, the plating is stably performed relatively easily by the conventionally used electrolytic plating method or electroless plating method. It is supposed to be possible. At the same time, the production cost can be reduced compared to gold plating or platinum plating.

きると判断される。As shown in Table 1, Examples 1, 2 and 1 and 2 which were thinly plated with silver are shown in FIG. 6 in terms of sealing resin adhesion strength and oxide film peeling. It was found to be superior to Comparative Example 1 in which partial silver plating was applied by the method shown in FIG. Further, it was found that Comparative Example 2 was inferior to Example 1, Example 2, Modification 1 and Modification 2 in evaluation of oxide film peeling. In addition, the modified example 3 is different from the example 1 in the sealing resin adhesion strength in the example 1, the example 2, the modified example 1, and the modified example 2.
It is also understood that the effect of providing thin silver plating is lost even if the thickness of thin silver plating is too thick. Thus, the lead frames of Example 1, Example 2, Modification 1 and Modification 2 of the present invention are used in the semiconductor device as compared with the conventional lead frame plated in the step shown in FIG. 6B. In this case, it is judged that the delamination of the IC package due to the formation of the copper oxide film can be effectively suppressed.

(d))Next, an example of the method for partially plating a noble metal of a lead frame of the present invention will be given and briefly described with reference to FIG. The noble metal partial plating method for the lead frame of this example is a plating method for producing the above-described lead frame of Example 1 of the present invention. It should be noted that FIG.
This is a part corresponding to (a). First, after electrolytically degreasing the entire surface of the lead frame 110A made of a copper alloy that has been externally processed by etching with an alkaline aqueous solution and washing with pure water, acid activation for removing an oxide film formed on the surface with an acid solution After the treatment, the surface of the copper alloy that is the lead frame material 120 was activated and washed again with pure water. (Fig. 3
(A)) Next, the thin silver plating 130 is applied to the lead frame 110A.
Was formed on the entire surface of the substrate with a thickness of 0.01 μm. (Fig. 3
(B)) This thin silver plating was performed by electrolytic plating by immersing it in an aqueous solution of silver cyanide. When manufacturing Example 2 of the lead frame of the present invention, since thin silver plating is applied only to the die pad portion, it is necessary to mask and plate a predetermined portion. Then, after alkali neutralization treatment and acid activation treatment, the lead frame surface is washed with pure water, and then the entire surface of the silver-plated lead frame 110A is treated with copper cyanide at a liquid temperature of 50 ° C. for about 20 seconds. The plating was performed, and the copper plating 140 was applied to a thickness of 0.1 μm. (FIG. 3 (c)) Next, after cleaning the surface of the lead frame 110A that has been plated with copper 140 with pure water, silver substitution prevention treatment is performed on the entire surface so that silver does not deposit on unnecessary portions during silver plating treatment. Was done. The substitution prevention treatment is a thin film formed by immersing the solution in an organic sulfur solution at room temperature. Then, by covering with a masking jig so as to expose only the die pad portion of the lead frame on which the semiconductor element is mounted and the inner lead tip region, the lead frame is used as a cathode and the plating solution is sprayed from a nozzle by partial plating. After a silver plating having a thickness of 3 μm was applied to a predetermined region of the lead frame, the lead frame was washed with pure water and dried with warm air to obtain a lead frame of the example.

い。On the other hand, in the case where a semiconductor device is manufactured by using the conventional lead frame shown in FIG. 6 (a), which is only plated with copper and partially silver, in the same process as shown in FIG. 4C shows the oxidation state of copper in the step corresponding to FIG. 5C. In the case of the conventional lead frame shown in FIG. 6 (a), since the thin silver plating is not applied to the copper surface, the copper oxidizes quickly, and as a result, the oxide film thickness is smaller than that of this example. Since the thickness is increased and there is no silver diffusion, the production of Cu 2 O is not prioritized over CuO as compared with the case where the lead frame of the example is used.

を抑えることができるものとしている。Since the lead frame 110 of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is provided with the thin silver plating 130, the formation of the copper oxide film 220 is suppressed in the step of FIG. 5C. That is, as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C, when a semiconductor device is manufactured using the lead frame of the embodiment, when a conventional lead frame without thin silver plating is used, It can be seen that the film thickness of the copper oxide film 220 is reduced as compared with. Further, in the case of using the lead frame 110 of the embodiment, when the copper oxide film 220 is formed, the generation of Cu 2 O is prioritized over CuO, so that the copper oxide film itself is less likely to be destroyed, and as a result, the resin sealing is performed. When stopped, the delamination with the sealing resin can be suppressed.

As shown in (a), a copper strike plating 140 and a silver plating 150 are sequentially formed on a lead frame material (copper alloy) 120 at the semiconductor element mounting side of the die pad 111 and the tip of the inner lead 112, In the partial silver plating step, as shown in FIG. 6B, after pretreatment such as degreasing and pickling (FIGS. 6B and 6B) is performed on the externally processed lead frame material 120. Generally, copper (Cu) strike plating having a thickness of about 0.1 to 0.3 μm is applied as a base plating (FIGS. 6B and 6B), and silver plating having a thickness of 1.5 to 10 μm is applied to a desired area. (Fig. 6
After (b) and (c)), if necessary, electrolytic stripping treatment is performed to remove the thin silver (more) that is originally not needed, and then a film is formed with an organic chemical such as benzotriazole. The discoloration preventing treatment (FIG. 6 (b) (d)) was performed to prevent discoloration due to oxidation and hydroxylation. As a silver plating method, a masking jig is used to cover a predetermined area of the lead frame to spray a silver plating solution on the exposed portion to partially perform silver plating, or after the lead frame is coated with an electrodeposition resist, an electrodeposition resist is applied. For example, a method is used in which a coating resist is made into a plate, and a predetermined portion is exposed so that the plating is dipped in a plating solution to perform plating. As described above, plating only on a desired portion of the lead frame using the masking jig or the electrodeposition resist as a mask is called partial plating, and the silver plating shown in FIG. 6 is hereinafter called partial silver plating. In the case of a lead frame made of a copper alloy that has been subjected to such a treatment, the base plating does not usually peel off even during the semiconductor device manufacturing process or the semiconductor device mounting process However, it was said that there was no peeling of the copper strike part.

生の原因と考えられている。However, recently, when a lead frame made of a copper alloy which has been subjected to such a treatment is used, delamination (peeling) of the package due to the lead frame occurs in a semiconductor device assembling process and a mounting process. I have come to understand that. The delamination of the package means each interface in the IC package, that is, the interface between the IC chip (semiconductor element) and the sealing resin, the interface between the die bonding agent and the IC chip (semiconductor element), and the like. The delamination caused by the lead frame is peeling at the interface between the sealing resin and the back surface of the die pad. The occurrence of delamination at the interface between the sealing resin and the back surface of the die pad
It has gradually become clear that there is a close relationship with the surface treatment and assembly conditions of lead frames made of copper alloy.
In a lead frame made of copper alloy, which has been subjected to copper strike plating as a base plating of silver plating, and electrolytic peeling and discoloration prevention have been applied after silver plating, the heating process during the IC (semiconductor device) assembly process It is considered that delamination occurs because an oxide film is formed on the surface of the copper alloy and the adhesion strength between the oxide film and the metal (copper alloy) is insufficient.

As a method, the special table 7-503103

No.) discloses a lead frame which is entirely covered with a thin film of a mixture of chromium and zinc or a simple substance of each. However, this lead frame has a problem that the gold wire bondability is poor because the silver-plated portion is also covered with another metal film.

た。Further, the conditions of the IC assembling process differ depending on the IC maker who carries out the assembling, and the surface oxidation state of the copper alloy lead frame and the oxide film forming process also differ depending on the maker, so that delamination caused by the lead frame may occur. The occurrence situation was different depending on the IC assembly manufacturer. For example, in a treatment method for preventing discoloration due to copper oxidation or hydroxylation by a benzotriazole-based coating,
The delamination prevention effect can be obtained for a manufacturer whose assembly temperature is low, but the delamination prevention effect cannot be obtained for a manufacturer whose IC assembly temperature is high. For this reason, in the past, whether measures against delamination were taken by each maker according to the IC assembly conditions.
There has been a demand for means capable of coping with delamination caused by the lead frame, regardless of IC assembly conditions.

る。As described above, in the copper alloy lead frame, delamination in the semiconductor device (IC) due to the formation of a copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame is prevented, and the reliability of the IC is reduced. It is desired to prevent a reduction in the non-defective rate in the IC assembly process and the mounting process.
There has been a demand for a material that can prevent delamination caused by the lead frame. Under the circumstances, the present invention is made of a copper alloy that can prevent delamination due to the formation of a copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame and does not impair the bondability regardless of the IC assembly conditions. It is intended to provide a lead frame.

でき、生産コストを下げることができる。With the lead frame of the present invention having the above-mentioned structure, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of delamination of the sealing resin in the semiconductor device due to the lead frame, regardless of the IC assembly conditions, and It is possible to provide a lead frame made of copper alloy that does not impair the bondability. Specifically, at least all or a predetermined portion of the surface of the copper alloy material on the side in contact with the sealing resin is plated with a thin noble metal, and the copper plating is formed on the thin noble metal plating. By forming the partial noble metal plating in the area (2), delamination (peeling) due to the copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame can be prevented. That is, in the place where a thin precious metal plating is applied to the surface of the copper alloy material, the precious metal is I
Since the copper noble metal plating applied to the surface of the copper alloy material suppresses the oxidation of the copper plated part and the copper alloy material to reduce the oxide film thickness, since the copper noble metal plating is diffused into the copper oxide film by heating during the assembly process. When forming the oxide film, CU 2 O is given priority over CuO, the oxide film itself is less likely to be destroyed, and delamination with the sealing resin can be suppressed. In particular, on the surface of the copper portion on the back surface of the die pad that is not the side on which the semiconductor element is mounted, at least when thin precious metal plating and copper plating are sequentially performed,
It is supposed that delamination (peeling) due to the copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame on the back surface of the die pad can be effectively prevented. In addition, when a thin precious metal plating or copper plating is applied to the entire surface of the lead frame, the depletion caused by the copper oxide film on the surface of the lead frame at all interfaces between the lead frame and the sealing resin including the back surface of the die pad. Lamination (peeling) can be prevented, and unlike the case where only the back surface of the die pad is partially plated, no plating jig or the like is required. The thickness of the thin precious metal plating is set to 0.5 μm or less and 0.001 μm or more, so that an appropriate film thickness that can obtain the effect of preventing delamination (peeling) is obtained. That is, the thickness of the thin precious metal plating is 0.00
If the thickness is less than 1 μm, the concentration of silver diffused during copper strike plating is small and the above effect cannot be obtained. If the thickness is more than 0.5 μm, not only the plating time and cost will be increased, but also precious metal in the IC assembly process. Is not sufficiently diffused inside the copper oxide film, it is considered that the adhesion strength with the sealing resin deteriorates. In addition, since the thin precious metal plating is applied under the copper plating, the subsequent precious metal plating process and wire bonding process can be performed in the same process as the conventional process, and the adhesion of the precious metal plating does not cause any problems. There is no problem in bonding suitability. Further, regarding the solder plating property, the copper oxide film is removed by the acid cleaning or the chemical polishing process which is performed as the pretreatment of the solder plating, and therefore, the solder plating property is good regardless of the conventional lead frame shown in FIG.
Furthermore, when performing partial noble metal plating, noble metal leak often occurs in unnecessary parts, and this may be removed by electrolytic peeling, but since a thin noble metal plating is applied below the copper plating, Only the precious metal leak portion can be removed without affecting the thin precious metal plating portion. Further, since the thin precious metal plating is applied under the copper plating, the same appearance as the conventional one shown in FIG. 6A can be secured. In addition, since the partial noble metal plating is the partial silver plating and the thin precious metal plating is the thin silver plating, it is possible to stabilize the plating relatively easily by the electrolytic plating method or the electroless plating method that has been conventionally used. Can be carried out, and the production cost can be reduced.

を下げることができる。The method of partially plating a noble metal of a lead frame according to the present invention makes it possible to manufacture the lead frame of the present invention with the above-mentioned structure. The thin precious metal plating is applied by electrolytic plating or electroless plating to simplify the control of the film thickness of the thin precious metal plating. In particular, in the above case, when thin noble metal plating or copper plating is applied to the entire lead frame, a masking jig is not required, and the work of forming a coating film for each plating can be simplified. As a method of applying a thin precious metal plating, either electrolytic plating or electroless plating can be used. However, the electrolytic plating method is suitable for increasing the plating speed and accurately controlling the plating thickness, and the complicated shape is used. The electroless plating method is suitable for obtaining the throwing power of the plating on a certain lead frame. In the above, since the partial noble metal plating is the partial silver plating and the thin noble metal plating is the thin silver plating, the plating is stably performed relatively easily by the conventionally used electrolytic plating method or electroless plating method. It is supposed to be possible. At the same time, the production cost can be reduced compared to gold plating or platinum plating.

きると判断される。As shown in Table 1, Examples 1, 2 and 1 and 2 which were thinly plated with silver are shown in FIG. 6 in terms of sealing resin adhesion strength and oxide film peeling. It was found to be superior to Comparative Example 1 in which partial silver plating was applied by the method shown in FIG. Further, it was found that Comparative Example 2 was inferior to Example 1, Example 2, Modification 1 and Modification 2 in evaluation of oxide film peeling. In addition, the modified example 3 is different from the example 1 in the sealing resin adhesion strength in the example 1, the example 2, the modified example 1, and the modified example 2.
It is also understood that the effect of providing thin silver plating is lost even if the thickness of thin silver plating is too thick. Thus, the lead frames of Example 1, Example 2, Modification 1 and Modification 2 of the present invention are used in the semiconductor device as compared with the conventional lead frame plated in the step shown in FIG. 6B. In this case, it is judged that the delamination of the IC package due to the formation of the copper oxide film can be effectively suppressed.

(A)) Next, the thin silver plating 130 is applied to the lead frame 110A.
Was formed on the entire surface of the substrate with a thickness of 0.01 μm. (Fig. 3
(B)) This thin silver plating was performed by electrolytic plating by immersing it in an aqueous solution of silver cyanide. When manufacturing Example 2 of the lead frame of the present invention, since thin silver plating is applied only to the die pad portion, it is necessary to mask and plate a predetermined portion. Next, after the alkali neutralization treatment and the acid activation treatment, the surface of the lead frame is washed with pure water, and then the entire surface of the silver-plated lead frame 110A is copper cyanide at a liquid temperature of 50 ° C. for about 20 seconds. The plating was performed, and the copper plating 140 was applied to a thickness of 0.1 μm. (FIG. 3 (c)) Next, after cleaning the surface of the lead frame 110A that has been plated with copper 140 with pure water, silver substitution prevention treatment is performed on the entire surface so that silver does not deposit on unnecessary portions during silver plating treatment. Was done. The substitution prevention treatment is a thin film formed by immersing the solution in an organic sulfur solution at room temperature. Then, by covering with a masking jig so as to expose only the die pad portion of the lead frame on which the semiconductor element is mounted and the inner lead tip region, the lead frame is used as a cathode and the plating solution is sprayed from a nozzle by partial plating. After a silver plating having a thickness of 3 μm was applied to a predetermined region of the lead frame, the lead frame was washed with pure water and dried with warm air to obtain a lead frame of the example.

い。On the other hand, in the case where a semiconductor device is manufactured by using the conventional lead frame shown in FIG. 6 (a), which is only plated with copper and partially silver, in the same process as shown in FIG. 4C shows the oxidation state of copper in the step corresponding to FIG. 5C. In the case of the conventional lead frame shown in FIG. 6 (a), since the thin silver plating is not applied to the copper surface, the copper oxidizes quickly, and as a result, the oxide film thickness is smaller than that of this example. Since the thickness is increased and silver is not diffused, the generation of Cu 2 O is not given priority over CuO as compared with the case where the lead frame of the example is used.

That is, as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C, when a semiconductor device is manufactured using the lead frame of the embodiment, when a conventional lead frame without thin silver plating is used, It can be seen that the film thickness of the copper oxide film 220 is reduced as compared with. Further, in the case of using the lead frame 110 of the embodiment, when the copper oxide film 220 is formed, the generation of Cu 2 O is prioritized over CuO, so that the copper oxide film itself is less likely to be destroyed, and as a result, the resin sealing is performed. When stopped, the generation of delamination with the sealing resin can be suppressed.
