Abstract

A natural-resource-conservative, environmentlaly-friendly, cost-effective, leadless semiconductor packaging apparatus (1000), having superior mechanica l and electrical properties, and having an optional windowed housing which uniquely seals and provides a mechanism for viewing the internally packaged integrated semiconductor circuits (chips/die) (40). A uniquely stamped and/or bent lead-frame (30, 41) is packaged by a polymeric material (12) during a unique compression-modling process using a mold, specially contoured to avoi d the common "over-packaging" problem in related art techniques. The specially contoured mold facilitates delineation of the internal portions from the external portions of the lead-frame, as the external portions are the effective solderable areas that contact pads on a printed circuit board, thereby avoiding a laborious environmentally-unfriendly masking step and de- flashing step, streamlining the device packaging process. The compression-mo ld effectively provides a compressive sealing orifice from which the effective solderable areas of the lead-frame may extend and be exposed and, thus, avoi d being coated with the polymer which is uniquely contained by the mold for packaging the internal portions of the lead-frame. The lead-frame is uniquel y stamped and/or bent, conforming it to electro-mechanical requirements of a particular semiconductor product. By uniquely stamping and/or bending, the related art "half-etching" of the lead for conforming it to electro-mechanic al requirements of the packaged semiconductor product is no longer required. Environmental enhancement is achieved by conserving natural resources and by eliminating hazardous material by products otherwise liberated in related ar t packaging techniques.

PRODUCT
PACKAGING APPARATUS HAVING GLASS WINDOW LID AND METHOD FOR
PACKAGING," by the same Applicants.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to semiconductor product packaging and methods of fabrication for producing a packaged semiconductor product. More particularly, the present invention relates to leadless semiconductor product packaging and methods of fabrication for producing leadless packaged semiconductor product. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to leadless semiconductor product packaging and methods of fabrication for mass-producing packaged semiconductor product without employing time-consuming, environmentally-unfriendly related art lead-frame etching and de-flashing techniques.
BACKGROUND ART
In response to manufacturing cost concerns relating to populating printed circuit boards with electronic product having the requisite functional circuits, the semiconductor product packaging industry has developed a leadless circuit component product (also known as a surface mountable electronic product), hereinafter referred to as a "leadless product." The leadless product, as the name implies, is a packaged electronic product that does not require the use of physical leads for being inserted into mating holes provided on a planar board as a mechanical mounting means nor as an electrical connection with other electronic components forming the circuit on such a planar board. In general, the leadless product facilitates manufacturing of a printed circuit card, thereby eliminating the inserting of component leads into the board holes and the soldering of these leads to the board's solder pads. The leadless technology has been well accepted as an option for packaging electronic components since early 1980. By example, a current related art industrial product includes "QFN" (Quad Flat No Lead, registered as JEDEC
STD MO 197, 198, 208, 209, and 220). Of course, the electronic component function may still be available in a lead-type packaging structure.

In the related leadless semiconductor product packaging art, "half etching"
techniques are used for forming the lead-frame, generating considerable hazardous material (e.g., acid waste, metals waste, and possibly organic solvent waste); and an adhesive tape is used to temporarily mask effective solderable areas of the lead-frame (also known as the "outer I/O") from the packaging material to be applied during the molding process in order to preserve such effective solderable areas of the lead-frame in an un-insulated state, generating undue tape and possibly organic solvent waste. In another related semiconductor product packaging art technique, the lead-frame is completely packaged by a molding process; and the effective solderable areas of the lead-frame must be subsequently "de-flashed" in a process wherein such portions are blasted with a highly pressurized aqueous slurry of particulates (i.e., wet-blasting) to remove the "over-packaging," thereby generating considerable hazardous material in the form of polymeric waste slurry. Therefore, a need exists for providing a natural resource-conservative and environmentally-friendly method and apparatus for packaging a leadless semiconductor product.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
The present invention, a leadless semiconductor packaging apparatus, provides a cost-effective product, having superior mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties, and having an optional window lid feature (i.e., a sight lid) which not only uniquely seals, but also provides a mechanism for viewing the internally packaged integrated semiconductor circuits (chips/die). Cost reduction is achieved by (a) optionally using polymeric materials, such as epoxies, rather than conventional related art ceramic materials for packaging devices, and (b) simplifying the packaging process, thereby improving productivity.
The present invention employs a unique "stamped" and/or "bent" standard solder-plated or pre-plated lead-frame which is packaged by a polymeric material during a molding process, in contrast to the related art "half etched" lead-frame. The process of the present invention involves providing a unique compression-type mold, specially contoured to avoid "over-packaging," of the effective solderable areas of the lead-frame which is a common problem in the related art techniques. Applicants' invention results in streamlining the device fabrication and packaging process. The specially contoured compression mold facilitates delineation of the internal portions from the external portions of the lead-frame, where the external portions have the effective solderable areas that contact pads on a printed circuit board. The mold effectively provides a "compressive sealing orifice" from which the effective solderable areas of the lead-frame may extend and be exposed and, thus, avoid being coated with the polymer which is contained by the mold for packaging the internal portions of the lead-frame, thereby avoiding a laborious masking step and a tedious de-flashing step.
The present invention applies the unique technique of "stamping" and/or "bending" of the lead-frame, thereby conforming it to electro-mechanical requirements of a particular semiconductor product. By stamping and/or bending the lead-frame material into the desired configuration, the present invention does not require old art "half etching"
of the lead for conforming it to electro-mechanical requirements of the packaged semiconductor product. By example, the related art process "half etches" the lead-frame (e.g., 10 mils of raw conducting material are etched to about 5 mils, thereby generating a large volume of acid and conducting material hazardous waste) in order to create the requisite shape. Thus, thinner lead-frame material, such as that in a range of 6 mils or less, may be used with the present invention. The present invention offers several more distinctive advantages: (a) customer-specifiable package size, (b) applicable existing surface mount technology (SMT) processes, (c) overall improved performance at a lower cost, (d) complete absence of hazardous material by-products in full-scale production (environmentally-friendly, i.e., no acid waste, no metals waste, no liberation of volatile organic compounds, and no solid polymeric slurry waste), and (e) thinner lead-frame material (natural-resource-conservative) .

Sealant material 14 is compressed by the sight lid 80 into an outboard channel 15 of a unique dual channel sealant seat such that a portion of the sealant material 14 flows into an inboard channel 16 for providing a uniquely larger sealing surface area and better sealing against contaminant entry. The present invention, however, is not limited to the use of dual channels, but may utilize at least one channel as required by the given semiconductor circuit to be packaged.
The cured polymeric material body 13 has an overlapping tapered mold line located at both the exterior portion 31 and the interior portion 32 of the stamped lead-frame 30 and a flush mold line located between the die attach pad 41 and the interior portion 33 of stamped lead-frame 30. A
