Semiconductor device and method of manufacture thereof
First Claim
1. A semiconductor device comprising:
- a power module in which a power semiconductor element is sealed with resin, said power module having a first hole extending therethrough and a substantially planar top surface;
a control substrate for controlling said power module and having a second hole extending therethrough and aligned with said first hole of said power module; and
a shielding plate having a third hole extending therethrough and aligned with said first hole of said power module and said second hole of said control substrate, and having a substantially planar bottom surface mounted directly and entirely on said top surface of said power module via a fastener disposed through said first and third holes,wherein said power module includes a structure for mounting said control substrate to said power module, said control substrate being mounted above said shielding plate via said structure.

Abstract
A transfer mold type power module (“TPM”) is provided with a projection at each of the four corners on its front main surface. The TPM is also provided a first screw hole at its center. A shielding plate is provided with a second crew hole in a position that corresponds to the first screw hole. A control substrate is provided with third screw holes in positions that correspond to the projections. The shielding plate and the TPM are joined by putting a first screw through the first and second screw holes and temporarily fastening the tip of the first screw by a temporary fastening member at the rear main surface of the TPM. The control substrate and the TPM are joined by second screws via the third screw holes.
