Abstract

An electronic component has a substrate, a die bonding pad provided on an upper surface of the substrate, a semiconductor element bonded onto the die bonding pad by a die bonding resin, a conductive pattern disposed adjacent to the die bonding pad, and a coating member covering the conductive pattern. At least an outer peripheral portion of a surface of the die bonding pad is made of an inorganic material. The inorganic material of the outer peripheral portion is exposed. The die bonding pad and the conductive pattern are separated by an air gap such that the coating member does not come into contact with the die bonding pad.

Claims (13)

1. An electronic component comprising:

a substrate;

a die bonding pad provided on an upper surface of the substrate;

a semiconductor element bonded onto the die bonding pad by a die bonding resin;

a conductive pattern disposed adjacent to the die bonding pad; and

a first coating member covering the conductive pattern, wherein

at least an outer peripheral portion of a surface of the die bonding pad is made of an inorganic material,

the inorganic material of the outer peripheral portion is exposed, and

the die bonding pad and the conductive pattern are separated by an air gap such that the first coating member does not come into contact with the die bonding pad.

2. The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic material is at least one of Cu and Au.

3. The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the substrate is a printed substrate, and a main part of the die bonding pad is made of a material identical to that of a conductive pattern of the printed substrate.

4. The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein a main part of the die bonding pad is made of Cu, and at least the outer peripheral portion in the surface of the die bonding pad is made of Au that is of the inorganic material.

5. The electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein a second coating member is applied to a region except the outer peripheral portion in the surface of the die bonding pad.
