Abstract
The electronic device has a structure that a semiconductor package is mounted on a mother board. To relieve stress caused by cyclic thermal load and applied to solder bumps that are electrically and mechanically connect the semiconductor package and the mother board, a shape-holding plate (stiffener) adhered to a wiring film is composed of a metal with a thermal expansion coefficient of 13.times.10.sup.-6 to 17.times.10.sup.-6 almost close to that of a glass-epoxy wiring substrate as the mother board. Examples of the metal are 25Cr-20Ni stainless steel or copper alloy containing 0.01 to 0.03% by weight of Zr.
