US Patent 7274103 Semiconductor device and manufacturing method thereof

In a semiconductor module connecting a semiconductor element and a passive element to a printed board, each of connection portions between the semiconductor element and the printed board and between the passive element and the printed board includes a metal with a melting point of 260° C. or higher and an intermetallic compound with a melting point of 260° C. or higher. Specifically, by connecting them using Pb-free solder with a melting point of 260° C. or lower, the printed board capable of lowering in cost, lightening, and reducing back height can be applied to a module board.
