Patent 7851910 was granted and assigned to Infineon Technologies on December, 2010 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The invention relates to a process for the multi-stage production of diffusion-soldered joints for power components with semiconductor chips, the melting points of diffusion-soldering alloys and diffusion-soldered joints being staggered in such a manner that a first melting point of the first diffusion-soldering alloy is lower than a second melting point of the second diffusion-soldering alloy, and the second melting point being lower than a third melting point of a first diffusion-soldered joint of the first diffusion-soldering alloy.
