Application: Semiconductor devices with electrical insulation features and associated production methods (Patent ID: US20240153885A1)

The patent filed by Infineon Technologies AG describes a semiconductor device that includes an electrically conductive carrier, a semiconductor chip, and a layer stack with dielectric layers that galvanically isolate the chip and carrier. One of the dielectric layers is coated with an electrically conductive coating to reduce electric field strength in specific regions of the device. The coating can also function as an electrode for a capacitor, contributing to field strength reduction based on capacitance.

Additionally, the semiconductor device may feature an adhesive layer with an electrically conductive filler, a securing layer with industrial carbon black, and openings in the electrically conductive coating to prevent eddy currents. Another aspect involves a dielectric structure with elevations surrounding the semiconductor chip to enlarge the creepage path between the chip and carrier. The structure may include chamfered shielding or rib structures, with embedded electrically conductive layers forming capacitors to further reduce electric field strength and lengthen discharge paths. The method for producing the semiconductor device involves fabricating dielectric shells with depressions, mounting the chip in a shell, and placing it on the carrier for galvanic isolation. Additional steps may include forming depressions in the shell surface or coating it with an electrically conductive material.
