A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor pellet (1), and a package having a pellet mount portion (21) on which a semiconductor pellet (1) is mounted. The semiconductor pellet (1) is mounted on the pellet mount portion (21) of the package through a joint material (6). The area of the surface of the pellet mount portion (21) on which the semiconductor pellet (1) is mounted is set to be smaller than the area of the surface of the semiconductor pellet (1) which is mounted on the pellet mount portion (21), thereby preventing the climb-up of the joint material (6) along the side surface of the semiconductor pellet (1).

Mount for semiconductor device

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device which includes providing an insulating substrate with a semiconductor chip mounted on a first face thereof. An insulating package member which is fixed on the first face of the substrate surrounds and houses the semiconductor chip. Various manufacturing steps are described, such as molding, grinding, and machining. In one step, ultrasonic waves are used to drive a grinding head. In another step, a rotating grinding wheel is used to mill out a groove. The method is designed to reduce warpage and improve the flatness of the substrate.

Semiconductor device having a semiconductor chip mounted on an

A semiconductor device which includes an insulating substrate having a semiconductor chip mounted on a first face thereof, and an insulating first package member fixed on the first face with surrounding the semiconductor chip. An insulating second package member is fixed on a second face of the substrate, which is opposite to the first face. The chip is housed in a first cavity formed by the substrate and the first package member. The first cavity is sealed by a first sealing member fixed on an opening end of the first package member. The first and second package members are respectively fixed on both sides of the substrate, so that the package is substantially or nearly symmetrical in structure in relation to the substrate. Thus, stresses in the substrate due to expansion and contraction thereof are almost or substantially balanced with each other in a firing or burning process, and as a result, warpage of the substrate is difficult to be generated and flatness of the mounting face of can be improved.
