Semiconductor device
View Patent ↗A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor element; a die pad with the semiconductor element mounted thereon; a plurality of electrode terminals each having a connecting portion electrically connected with the semiconductor element; and a sealing resin for sealing the semiconductor element, the die pad and the electrode terminals so that a surface of each electrode terminal on an opposite side from a surface having the connecting portion is exposed as an external terminal surface. A recess having a planar shape of a circle is formed on the surface of each electrode terminal with the connecting portion, and the recess is arranged between an end portion of the electrode terminal exposed from an outer edge side face of the sealing resin and the connecting portion. While a function of the configuration for suppressing the peeling between the electrode terminal and the sealing resin can be maintained by mitigating an external force applied to the electrode terminal, the semiconductor device can be downsized.
1. A semiconductor device, comprising:
a semiconductor element;
a die pad on which the semiconductor element is mounted;
a plurality of electrode terminals, each of which has a connecting portion electrically connected with the semiconductor element; and
a sealing resin for sealing the semiconductor element, the die pad and the electrode terminals so that a surface of each of the electrode terminals opposite to a surface having the connecting portion is exposed from the sealing resin as an external terminal surface,
wherein at least one of the electrode terminals is positioned at a corner of the sealing resin and has a plurality of circular recesses that are formed in an overlapping manner on the surface having the connecting portion and arranged along the comer,
wherein a groove defined by the plurality of overlapped circular recesses is shaped in a form of a letter L.
2. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein the recesses are provided between an end portion of the electrode terminal exposed from an outer edge side face of the sealing resin and the connecting portion.
3. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein an end portion of the electrode terminal in the corner is separated into a plurality of portions to be exposed from an outer edge side face of the sealing resin.
4. The semiconductor device according to claim 3 , wherein a plurality of end portions of the electrode terminal in the corner are exposed from different sides of the sealing resin.
