Abstract

PURPOSE:To protect the surface of an electrode on a chip perfectly without degrading the reliability of elements nearby by a method wherein hydrate oxide is formed on the surface of the electrode by exposure to vapor after wire bonding. CONSTITUTION:A silicon oxide film 2 is formed on the surface of a silicon substrate 1 and an aluminum pad 3 and an aluminum wiring 4 are formed on it and a surface protective film 5 such as a CVD silicon oxide film or silicon nitride film is formed over the whole surface except on a part of the aluminum pad 3. A fine wire 6 of aluminum, copper or the like is bonded to the aluminum pad 3 by an ultrasonic bonding method or a fine wire 6 of gold is bonded to the aluminum pad 3 by a thermocompression bonding method. After that, if the exposed part of the surface of the pad 3 is exposed to supersaturated vapor, a precise and corrosion-resistant hydrate oxide layer can be obtained. With this constitution, the pad 3 is protected from corrosion caused by moisture penetration from the outside.

TAB (Tape, Automated Bondin)
g) In the case of 0:), a copper beam lead 8 as shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 2 is obtained. In the case of aluminum, the compositional structure of the hydrated oxide is not clear, but it is presumed to be a boehmite film. If aluminum is used as the thin metal wire, the surface of the thin wire will also be alumina, further improving its moisture resistance. Steam heated to pure water f: 100'c or more is effective, but it takes time to obtain a hydrated oxide of a certain thickness. Supersaturated steam can provide a predetermined coating thickness in a shorter time. The steam generator may be a known boiler or the like, and care should be taken to select materials such as stainless steel so that the steam does not contain impurities, especially ionic impurities. This is because it strongly influences the speed and non-porosity of the film formed. Water vapor has a positive effect on blowability. When exposing the silicon substrate to a steam atmosphere, the silicon substrate side should be placed 1 to prevent the steam from condensing and moisture acting on the semiconductor chip.
Maintain the temperature above oor. Materials used in assembly, such as resin materials, have a low heat resistance, so when applied to molded products, they can be transported by sliding on the IT heating table of the lead frame, so a steam treatment process is added to the conventional manufacturing process. Just do it.

Corrosion resistance can be expected even with high-temperature water, but high-temperature water has higher activity than room-temperature water, and soaking semi-finished products after assembly, especially after bonding, in hot water can reduce ions from chip mounting materials and package materials. Not only does this promote the elution of sexual impurities, which is undesirable for chips, but the resin material also swells, resulting in deterioration in strength and variation in properties.

The next embodiment of the present invention is a method in which a semi-finished product after bonding is exposed in a water vapor atmosphere containing a chemical that promotes chemical conversion. Weakly alkaline chemicals can be cited as chemical conversion accelerators. For example, ammonia, amines, alcohol amines, etc. When ~1 g of these chemicals are included in the steam atmosphere, the film formation rate is fast, and when a chemical conversion accelerator is used, the rate is several times faster than when it is not used. However, since it also promotes porosity, it is natural that conditions must be set so as not to deteriorate corrosion resistance.
