Abstract
Abstract A heat dissipating member including a heat sink is placed on a module base board with flip-chips mounted thereon, with metallic plates and first adhesive materials of a good thermal conductivity interposed between the heat dissipating member and the flip-chips in a close contact relation and with a second adhesive material interposed between the heat dissipating member and the base board, wherein the first adhesive material is selected to have a melting point lower than that of the second adhesive material, and then such an assembly is heated so that both the first and second adhesive materials are melted and the metallic plates are mounted onto the flip-chips and the heat dissipating member is mounted onto the base board. A gap is formed between the metallic plates and the heat dissipating member as a result of earlier solidification of the second adhesive material than that of the first adhesive material so as to be precisely controlled such that a heat transferring effect therebetween may not be degraded.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
336 words
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of preparing a base board, preparing a semiconductor chip having two main faces, and to be mounted onto said base board at one of said two main faces, mounting said semiconductor chip onto said base board at one of said two main faces, preparing a metallic plate of a good thermal conductivity to be mounted onto said semiconductor chip on the other of said two main faces, preparing a first adhesive material, placing said metallic plate onto said other main face of said semiconductor chip with said first adhesive material interposed between said metallic plate and said other main face of said semiconductor chip, preparing a head dissipating and enclosing member to be mounted onto said base board for hermetically enclosing said semiconductor chip and having a portion facing to said metallic plate mounted onto said other main face of said semiconductor chip with a gap therebetween for dissipating the heat of said semiconductor chip, preparing a second adhesive material, said first adhesive material being selected to have a melting point lower than that of said second adhesive material, placing said heat dissipating and enclosing member onto said base board with said second adhesive material interposed between said heat dissipating and enclosing member and said base board and with said metallic plate placed onto said other main face of said semiconductor chip in close contact with said heat dissipating and enclosing member, heating said first and second adhesive materials simultaneously to said melting points of said first and second adhesive materials for mounting said metallic plate onto said other main face of said semiconductor chip and for hermetically mounting said heat dissipating and enclosing member onto said base board, whereby a gas is formed between said metallic plate and said portion of said heat dissipating and enclosing member facing to said metallic plate so as to be controlled as a result of earlier solidification of said second adhesive material than that of said first adhesive material.
