Package for an optoelectronic semiconductor component and semiconductor component
View Patent ↗A package for an optoelectronic semiconductor component is disclosed. The package includes a package body, a first connecting lead and a second connecting lead. The first connecting lead and the second connecting lead each extend in a vertical direction through the package body. A semiconductor component with such a package and a semiconductor chip are also disclosed.
1. A package for an optoelectronic semiconductor component, the package comprising:
a package body;
a first connecting lead; and
a second connecting lead, the first connecting lead and the second connecting lead each extending in a vertical direction through the package body,
wherein the first connecting lead has a cross-section of at least 1 mm 2 in a plane running perpendicular to the vertical direction; and
wherein the cross-section of the first connecting lead is larger than the second connecting lead at each point along the vertical direction.
2. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the package body comprises a plastics body which is moulded onto the first connecting lead and the second connecting lead.
3. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the first connecting lead and the second connecting lead are spaced apart from one another in a lateral direction, the lateral direction extending perpendicularly to the vertical direction.
4. The package according to claim 1 , wherein a side face of the first connecting lead extending along the vertical direction is provided as a mounting face for a semiconductor chip.
5. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the first connecting lead and the second connecting lead extend in a plane that is defined by the vertical direction and by a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the vertical direction.
6. The package according to claim 1 , wherein the package comprises a cap that surrounds the first connecting lead and the second connecting lead on one side of the package body.
7. The package according to claim 6 , wherein the cap is constructed such that it may be pushed onto the package body.
8. The package according to claim 6 , wherein the cap is of one-piece construction and transmissive to radiation in the ultraviolet, visible and/or infrared spectral range.
9. The package according to claim 6 , wherein the cap comprises a lid and a jacket surrounding the lid, the lid being transmissive to radiation in the ultraviolet, visible and/or infrared spectral range and the jacket containing a metal.
10. The semiconductor component comprising:
a package according to claim 1 ; and
a semiconductor chip fastened to the first connecting lead.
11. The semiconductor component according to claim 10 , wherein the semiconductor chip comprises a main emission direction that extends along the vertical direction.
12. The semiconductor component according to claim 10 , wherein the semiconductor chip is mounted in the package without an enclosure surrounding the semiconductor chip.
13. The semiconductor component according to claim 10 , wherein the semiconductor chip is fastened to the first connecting lead by a solder or by an adhesive with a content of conductive filler particles.
14. The semiconductor component according to claim 10 , further comprising an electrical control circuit for the semiconductor chip arranged within the package.
