A semiconductor device package comprises an electrically conductive carrier, a semiconductor die disposed on the carrier, an encapsulant encapsulating part of the carrier and the semiconductor die, an electrically insulating and thermally conductive interface structure, in particular covering an exposed surface portion of the carrier and a connected surface portion of the encapsulant, wherein the interface structure comprises a glass transition temperature in a range between −40° C. to 150° C.

Semiconductor device package comprising a thermal interface material with improved handling properties

A power semiconductor module includes a substrate of planar sheet metal including a plurality of islands that are each defined by channels that extend between upper and lower surfaces of the substrate, a first semiconductor die mounted on a first one of the islands, a molded body of encapsulant that covers the metal substrate, fills the channels, and encapsulates the first semiconductor die, a hole in the molded body that extends to a recess in the upper surface of the substrate, and a press-fit connector arranged in the hole such an interior end of the press-fit connector is mechanically and electrically connected to the substrate.

Power module with metal substrate

A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor die, an encapsulant body of electrically insulating material that encapsulates the semiconductor die, a thermal conduction plate comprising an outer surface that is exposed from the encapsulant body, a region of thermal interface material interposed between the thermal conduction plate and the semiconductor die, the region of thermal interface material being a liquid or semi-liquid, and a barrier that is configured to prevent the thermal interface material of the region from flowing laterally across the barrier.

Semiconductor package with barrier to contain thermal interface material

A method of forming a power semiconductor module includes providing a substrate of planar sheet metal, forming channels in an upper surface of the substrate that partially extend through a thickness of the substrate and define a plurality of islands in the substrate, mounting a first semiconductor die on a first one of the islands, forming a molded body of encapsulant that covers the substrate, fills the channels, and encapsulates the semiconductor die, forming a hole in the molded body and a recess in the upper surface of the substrate beneath the hole, and arranging a press-fit connector in the hole and forming a mechanical and electrical connection between an interior end of the press-fit connector and the substrate.
