The present invention is directed to a liquid and solid phase power connect for packaging of an electrical device using a using a phase changing metal. The phase changing metal transitions back and forth between a liquid phase and a solid phase while constantly maintaining connection to the electrical device. The packaging uses a substrate, a restraining housing, and a lid to encase an electrical contact on the electrical device and restrain the phase changing metal. In one embodiment, the entire electrical device is encased and a voltage isolator is utilized to limit the contact areas between the phase changing metal and the electrical device. A method for relieving contact stress by transitioning the phase changing metal from a solid to a liquid is also taught.

A manufacturing method includes the step of laminating a sheet assembly onto chips arranged on a processing tape, where the sheet assembly has a multilayer structure including a base and a sinter-bonding sheet and is laminated so that the sinter-bonding sheet faces the chips, and subsequently removing the base B from the sinter-bonding sheet. The chips on the processing tape are picked up each with a portion of the sinter-bonding sheet adhering to the chip, to give sinter-bonding material layer-associated chips. The sinter-bonding material layer-associated chips are temporarily secured through the sinter-bonding material layer to a substrate. The sinter-bonding material layers lying between the temporarily secured chips and the substrate are converted through a heating process into sintered layers, to bond the chips to the substrate. The semiconductor device manufacturing method is suitable for efficiently supplying a sinter-bonding material to semiconductor chips while reducing loses of the sinter-bonding material.
