20170316992 · 2017-11-02 ·

A power semiconductor device module includes a metal baseplate and a plastic housing that together form a tray. Power electronics are disposed in the tray. A plastic cap covers the tray. Electrical press-fit terminals are disposed along the periphery of the tray. Each electrical terminal has a press-fit pin portion that sticks up through a hole in the cap. In addition, the module includes four mechanical corner press-fit anchors disposed outside the tray. One end of each anchor is embedded into the housing. The other end is an upwardly extending press-fit pin portion. The module is manufactured and sold with the press-fit pin portions of the electrical terminals and the mechanical corner anchors unattached to any printed circuit board (PCB). The mechanical anchors help to secure the module to a printed circuit board. Due to the anchors, screws or bolts are not needed to hold the module to the PCB.

Semiconductor package structure and method

In one embodiment, a semiconductor package structure includes a substrate having a well region extending from a major surface. An interposer structure is attached to the substrate within the well region. The interposer structure has a major surface that is substantially co-planar with the major surface of the substrate. An electrical device is directly attached to the substrate and the interposer structure. The interposer structure can be an active device, such as a gate driver integrated circuit, or passive device structure, such as an impedance matching network.
