Abstract
The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip having a first electrode and a second electrode formed on a first main surface and a third electrode formed on a second main surface opposite the first main surface. A first portion of a first lead is placed on the first electrode and a second portion of the first lead is located outside the semiconductor chip. A first portion of a second lead is placed on the second electrode and a second portion of the second lead is located outside the semiconductor chip. A plurality of projecting electrodes are provided between the first portion of the first lead and the first electrode and between the first portion of the second lead and the second electrode to electrically connect them. An insulating sheet is provided between the first portion of the first lead and the first main surface of the semiconductor chip and between the first portion of the second lead and the first main surface of the semiconductor chip. The insulating sheet covers the first main surface of the semiconductor chip in areas other than a region in which the plurality of projecting electrodes are provided.
