A semiconductor chip semiconductor device of the present invention is capable of obtaining a high-quality bare chip (HQC) easily and can retain quality without being affected by the surrounding environment. Electrodes formed on the surface of a first resin sealed package for sealing a semiconductor chip are connected to the electrodes of the semiconductor chip and each electrode comprises a mounting area to be connected to an object to be mounted and a testing area for connecting testing equipment.

Semiconductor device and packaging method thereof

A method for forming a mold-encapsulated semiconductor device includes the steps of mounting a semiconductor chip on a metallic plate having a metallic interconnect pattern thereon, encapsulating the semiconductor chip on the metallic interconnect pattern, removing the bottom of the metallic plate by etching to expose the metallic interconnect pattern, and forming external terminals on the bottom of the metallic interconnect pattern. The method reduces the thickness as well as the planar dimensions of the semiconductor device.

Resin-encapsulated semiconductor device

A semiconductor device includes an interposing substrate having a top surface mounting thereon a semiconductor chip and a bottom surface mounting thereon a solder ball islands. Chip electrodes of the semiconductor chip are connected to the solder ball islands through a top interconnect pattern, via holes and a bottom interconnect pattern. The second interconnect pattern has a solder-flow damping/stopping pattern in the vicinity of the solder ball islands for stopping the solder from flowing onto the bottom interconnect pattern upon melting.

A semiconductor device of the present invention is made up of a semiconductor chip and a single wiring tape resembling a film carrier and including a wiring layer that has a preselected pattern. The wiring tape is adhered to at least the top, bottom and one side of a semiconductor chip. The semiconductor device has outer connecting portions arranged on the above surface of the chip. The semiconductor device is comparable in package size with a bare chip. A semiconductor module having a plurality of such semiconductor devices arranged bidimensionally or tridimensionally achieves desirable electric characteristics while obviating the dense arrangement of a number of wirings.

In a semiconductor device, semiconductor chips are mounted on two surfaces of a die pad. A lower one of the semiconductor chips has a portion projecting outward from an upper one of the semiconductor chips. The semiconductor chips are connected to integrally molded external connection leads trough wiring members. The lower semiconductor chipping the outwardly projecting portion has, on its surface on the same side as an upper surface of the upper semiconductor chip, pads to be connected to the external connection leads. A semiconductor device lead frame and a method of manufacturing the same are also disclosed.

In a semiconductor device, the adhesive layer of a tape that is adhered to the surface of a chip is disposed so that there is no overlap with an aperture in the uppermost surface of a semiconductor element. With the usual type of tape, the tape is kept at a distance of at least 0.1 mm from the cover aperture in the surface of the semiconductor element, and in the case in which there are two covers, the tape is kept at a distance of at least 0.1 mm from an aperture at the uppermost surface of the semiconductor element. The aperture includes either a fuse aperture or a bonding bad and fuse aperture.

There is provided an adhering structure between a semiconductor chip and two alignments of first side inner leads and second side inner leads extending in first and second sides of the semiconductor chip respectively. Each of the first and second side inner leads has a stitched portion. The first and second sides are separated by a center line of the semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip and the first and second side inner leads are adhered to each other by first and second side electrically insulative adhesive tapes respectively. Each of the first and second side electrically insulative adhesive tapes has both surfaces with adhesion force. The first and second side electrically insulative adhesive tapes extend on first and second inner stripe regions so as to adhere the stitched portions of the first and second side inner leads respectively. It is also important that each of the first and second side electrically insulative adhesive tapes is further present in at least two positions which are spaced from each other in a direction parallel to the center line and which are also located in the vicinity of an edge of the semiconductor chip, where the edge extends substantially in parallel to the center line, so that the inner leads, which extend through the two positions, are also fixed in the vicinity of the edge of the semiconductor chip.

Internal electrodes and external lead wiring lines are formed on the front surface of a substrate of a semiconductor device, and solder bumps electrically connected to the external lead wiring lines via through holes are provided on the rear surface of the substrate. A first semiconductor chip is mounted on the surface of the substrate, and a second semiconductor chip is mounted on the rear surface of the substrate.

The solder bumps are formed with a height equal to or greater than the thickness of the second semiconductor chip so that, when the semiconductor device is mounted on an external mounting board or the like, a gap is formed between the substrate of the semiconductor device and the external mounting board by the height of the solder bumps themselves. The second semiconductor chip mounted on the rear surface of the substrate is accommodated in the gap.
