Abstract

The aim of the invention is to design a chip module which largely avoids edge shorting of the chip (2). The invention achieves this aim by virtue of the fact that bond islands are disposed on the chip away from the edge, the bond islands being connected by bond leads (4) to conductor tracks (5) on the circuit board (1). The invention concerns a chip module comprising at least one chip, preferably a store or processor, located on a circuit board.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Chip-Modul, bei dem mindestens ein Chip, vorzugsweise ein Speicher oder ein Prozessor, auf einer Leiterplatte angeord­ net ist.The invention relates to a chip module, at the at least one chip, preferably a memory or a processor, arranged on a circuit board is not.

Nach dem Stand der Technik sind verschiedene Bau­ formen bekannt, Halbleiterbauelemente auf Leiter­ platten oder in speziellen Gehäuseformen anzuord­ nen. Bei der Anordnung der Chips auf Leiterplatten ist es üblich, daß an den Seitenrändern der Chips Bondinseln angebracht sind, an denen Bonddrähte zur Herstellung der elektrischen Verbindung mit den Leiterbahnen der Leiterplatte angeschlossen werden.According to the state of the art are different construction known form semiconductor devices on conductors plates or to be arranged in special housing shapes nen. When placing the chips on circuit boards it is common that on the side edges of the chips Bonding islands are attached to which bonding wires for Establish the electrical connection with the PCB conductor tracks can be connected.

Den bekannten Bauformen haftet der Nachteil an, daß bei Verwendung von Chips mit Bondinseln außerhalb des Randes beim Bondvorgang ein Kantenschluß an den Rändern des Chips auftreten kann, was zur Funktionsuntüchtigkeit des Moduls führt.The known designs have the disadvantage that when using chips with bond pads outside of the edge during the bonding process  the edges of the chip can occur, resulting in Inoperability of the module leads.

Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Chip-Modul der eingangs genannten Art anzuge­ ben, das weitgehend einen Kantenschluß am Chip vermeidet.The invention is therefore based on the object to suit a chip module of the type mentioned ben that largely an edge closure on the chip avoids.

Erfindungsgemäß gelingt die Lösung der Aufgabe da­ durch, daß sich auf dem Chip außerhalb des Randbe­ reiches Bondinseln (sogenannte Center-point-bond­ pads) befinden, die durch Bonddrähte mit Leiter­ bahnen der Leiterplatte verbunden sind.According to the invention, the problem is solved there through that on the chip outside the Randbe rich bond islands (so-called center-point bond pads) located by bond wires with conductors tracks of the circuit board are connected.

Zweckmäßigerweise wird dabei die Oberfläche in be­ kannter Weise passiviert. Es ist auch möglich, die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung mehrfach auf einer Lei­ terplatte, vorzugsweise in einer Reihe als Mehr­ fach-Chip-Anordnung auszubilden.The surface is expediently in be known passivated. It is also possible that arrangement according to the invention multiple times on a lei terplatte, preferably in a row as more Train chip arrangement.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß sich in der Leiterplatte mindestens ein Durchbruch oder eine Ausfräsung befindet und daß das Chip versenkt in dem Durchbruch oder der Aus­ fräsung angeordnet ist.An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides before that in the circuit board at least one Breakthrough or a cutout and that the chip sunk in the breakthrough or out milling is arranged.

Eine weitere Ausführung der Erfindung besteht darin, daß auf der Leiterplatte um das Chip Schutz­ streifen, vorzugsweise in Form eines Kunststoff­ rahmens, angeordnet sind. Dabei kann das Chip auch ohne daß sich in der Leiterplatte eine Ausfräsung oder ein Durchbruch befindet, auf die Leiterplatte aufgesetzt werden. Another embodiment of the invention exists in that on the circuit board around the chip protection strip, preferably in the form of a plastic frame, are arranged. The chip can do that too without milling in the circuit board or a breakthrough is on the circuit board be put on.  

Ferner ist es möglich, daß die Bonddrähte bogen­ förmig angeordnet sind.It is also possible for the bond wires to bend are arranged in a shape.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform der Erfindung sieht vor, daß als Bonddrähte Aluminiumdrähte verwendet werden.Another embodiment of the invention provides before that used as bond wires aluminum wires become.

Bei einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Chip ein DRAM mit einer Speicherkapazität von 3 Mb oder ein ganzzahliges Vielfaches davon enthält.In an advantageous development of the invention it is provided that the chip is a DRAM with a Storage capacity of 3 Mb or an integer Contains multiples of it.

Ferner ist es möglich, daß das Chip mindesten ein DRAM mit einer Speicherkapazität 4 Mb oder ein ganzzahliges Vielfaches davon enthält, das in glei­ che Bereiche aufgeteilt ist, von denen einige mit der Leiterplatte verbunden sind. Auf diese Weise gelingt es, auch Chips einzusetzen, die ursprüng­ lich für andere Einsatzzwecke vorgesehen waren und beispielsweise aus fertigungstechnischen Gründen nicht die volle Kapazität erreichen.It is also possible that the chip is at least one DRAM with a memory capacity of 4 Mb or one contains integer multiples of it, in the same areas, some with the circuit board are connected. In this way succeeds in using chips that originally were intended for other purposes and for example for manufacturing reasons do not reach full capacity.

Eine zweckmäßige Ausführungsform des erfindungsge­ mäßen Chip-Moduls entsteht dadurch, daß auf dem Chip die PQ- und PD-Signale sowie die PCAS- und CAS-Signale miteinander verbunden sind.An expedient embodiment of the fiction moderate chip module arises from the fact that on the Chip the PQ and PD signals as well as the PCAS and CAS signals are interconnected.

Von besonderem Vorteil bei der Erfindung ist, daß durch die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Bonddrähte ein Kantenschluß zwischen Chip und Leiterplatte vermieden wird. A particular advantage of the invention is that by the arrangement of the bond wires according to the invention an edge connection between the chip and the circuit board is avoided.  

Durch die Möglichkeit der Versenkung der Chips in der Leiterplatte ist außerdem ein geringer Platzbe­ darf gewährleistet, wodurch eine große Packungs­ dichte erzielt wird. Weiterhin ergeben sich gün­ stige Möglichkeiten für die Wärmeabfuhr und geringe Leiterzugwege. Dadurch werden wiederum geringe Taktzeiten und eine geringe kapazitive Belastung erreicht.Due to the possibility of sinking the chips in the circuit board is also a small space allowed to ensure a large pack density is achieved. Furthermore, there are good results Opportunities for heat dissipation and low Ladder paths. This in turn will be minor Cycle times and a low capacitive load reached.

Die Erfindung soll im folgenden anhand eines Aus­ führungsbeispieles näher erläutert werden. In der zugehörigen Zeichnung zeigen:The invention is based on an off management example are explained in more detail. In the associated drawing show:

Fig. 1 Eine Schnittdarstellung des erfindungs­ gemäßen Chip-Moduls in Mehrfachanordnung. Fig. 1 is a sectional view of the chip module according to the Invention in multiple arrangement.

Fig. 3 Ein Schaltungsbeispiel für die Anwendung der Erfindung bei einem SIMM mit 3 Mb- Drams. Fig. 3 shows a circuit example for the application of the invention in a SIMM with 3 Mb drams.

Wie aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist, ist das erfin­ dungsgemäße Modul auf einer Leiterplatte 1 angeord­ net. In der Leiterplatte 1 sind in diesem Beispiel drei Ausfräsungen eingebracht, in denen die Chips 2.1 bis 2.3 angeordnet sind. Die Chips sind über Bonddrähte 4 mit den auf der Leiterplatte 1 ange­ ordneten Leiterbahnen 3 verbunden. Die Bonddrähte 4 sind in diesem Beispiel bogenförmig angeordnet. As can be seen from FIG. 1, the module according to the invention is arranged on a printed circuit board 1 . In this example, three cutouts are made in the printed circuit board 1 , in which the chips 2.1 to 2.3 are arranged. The chips are connected via bonding wires 4 to the conductor tracks 3 arranged on the printed circuit board 1 . The bonding wires 4 are arranged in an arc shape in this example.

Bei der in Fig. 2 dargestellten Anordnung ist das Chip 2 auf eine Leiterplatte 1 aufgesetzt, die nicht mit einer Ausfräsung oder einem Durchbruch versehen ist. Um das Chip 2 herum sind Schutz­ streifen 5 angebracht. Die Schutzstreifen 5 können in vielfältigen Formen ausgebildet sein, beispiels­ weise in Form von Längsstreifen oder als Kunst­ stoffrahmen 5.1.In the arrangement shown in Fig. 2, the chip 2 is placed on a circuit board 1 , which is not provided with a cutout or an opening. Around the chip 2 protective strips 5 are attached. The protective strips 5 can be designed in various forms, for example in the form of longitudinal strips or as a plastic frame 5.1 .

Eine bevorzugte Anwendungsmöglichkeit der Erfin­ dung besteht in der Verwendung als SIMM (Singel In­ line Memory Modul) für Speicher in PCs. Die nach dem Stand der Technik bekannten SIMMs haben eine Datenstruktur von 9, 18 oder 36 Bit. Eine vorteil­ hafte Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen SIMM hat, wie in Fig. 3 dargestellt, Leitungen für die Si­ gnale PCAS und CAS sowie PQ und PT zusammengefaßt. Diese sogenannte Security-Circiut-Schaltung hat den Vorteil, daß bei schlechter Kontaktierung oder Stö­ rungen von den PCAS-, PQ- oder PT-Signalen trotz­ dem fehlerfreies Arbeiten möglich ist.A preferred application of the inven tion is the use as SIMM (single in line memory module) for memory in PCs. The SIMMs known according to the prior art have a data structure of 9, 18 or 36 bits.
