Abstract
A first bump and a second bump are formed on the surface of a mounting board (substrate) so that the second bump is allowed to be higher than the first bump. A conductive adhesive member is transferred onto those bumps. A semiconductor substrate in which a mesa portion has been processed is mounted on the mounting board so that the first bump does not come into contact with an electrode on a top of the mesa portion directly while electrically connected to the electrode via the conductive adhesive member. In the semiconductor device in which the semiconductor substrate is mounted with an active surface processed to form the mesa portion facing the mounting board, the stresses applied to the mesa portion (a stress caused in mounting and a stress due to a heat cycle in use) are relieved, thus preventing deterioration of an element.
