Technology for high power devices has made impressive progress in increasing the current density of power semiconductor, system module, and design optimization, which realize high power systems with heterogeneous functional integration. Depending on the performance development of high power semiconductor, packaging technology of high power device is urgently required for efficiency improvement of the device. Power device packaging must provide superior thermal management due to high operating temperature of power modules. Here we, therefore, review critical challenges of typical power electronics packaging today including core assembly processes, component materials, and reliability evaluation regulations.

In this paper, we studied how and why did abnormal IMC growth at component affect on board level mechanical reliability. First, interfacial reactions between Sn2.5Ag0.5Cu solder and electrolytic Ni/Au UBM of component side were investigated with reflow times and thermal aging time. Also, to compare mechanical reliability of component level, shear energy was evaluated using the ball shear test conducted with variation of shear tip speed. Finally, to evaluate mechanical reliability of board level, we surface-mounted component fabricated with each condition on PCB side. After conducting of 3 point bending test and impact test, we confirmed solder joint crack mode using cross-sectioning and dye & pry penetration method.

SoP-L 공정은 유전율이 상이한 재료를 이용하여 PCB 공정이 가능하고 다른 packaging 방법에 비해 공정 시간과 비용이 절약되는 잠정이 있다. 본 연구에서는 SoP-L 기술을 이용하여 Si 기판의 함몰에 판한 공정의 안정도와 함몰 시 제작된 때턴의 특성의 변화에 대해 관찰 하였다. Si 기판의 함몰에 Active device를 이용하여 특성의 변화를 살펴보고 공정의 안정도를 확립하려 했지만 Active device는 측정 시 bias의 확보와 특성의 민감한 변화로 인해 비교적 측정이 용이하고 공정의 test 지표를 삼기 위해 passive device 를 구현하여 함몰해 보았다. Passive device 의 제작 과정은 Si 기판 위에 spin coating을 통해 PI(Poly Imide)를 10um로 적층한 후에 Cr과 Au를 seed layer로 증착을 하였다. 그리고 photo lithography 공정을 통하여 photo resister patterning 후에 전해 Cu 도금을 거쳐 CPW 구조로 $50{\Omega}$ line 과 inductor를 형성하였다. 제작 된 passive device의 함몰 전 특성 추출 data와 SoP-L공정을 통한 함몰 후 추출 data 비교를 통해 특성의 변화와 공정의 안정도를 확립하였다. 차후 안정된 SoP-L 공정을 이용하여 Active device를 함몰 한다면 특성의 변화 없이 size 룰 줄이는 효과와 외부 자극에 신뢰도가 강한 기판이 제작 될 것으로 예상된다.

A thermal model of power modules based on the physical dimension and thermal properties is proposed in this paper. The heat path in the power module is considered as a one-dimensional heat transfer in the model. The method of the parameters extraction for the model is given in the paper. With high speed and accuracy, the thermal model is suit for electrothermal simulation. The proposed model is verified by experimental results.

Lead-free bonding has attracted significant attention for automotive power device packaging due to the upcoming environmental regulations. Silver (Ag) is one of the prime candidates for alternative of high Pb soldering owing to its superior electrical and thermal conductivity, low temperature sinterability, and high melting temperature after bonding. In this paper, the bonding technology by Ag paste was introduced. We classified into two Ag paste bonding according to applied pressure, and each bonding described in detail including recent studies.
