Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate and a plurality of bumps. The substrate is compartmentalized into a bump-free area provided along four sides of the substrate and a bump area which is surrounded by the bump-free area. The plurality of bumps is aligned in the bump area. The plurality of bumps includes a first group of bumps aligned along the four sides and a second group of bumps surrounded by the first group. A first subgroup of bumps included in the first group and aligned along one side of the four sides is shifted with respect to a second subgroup of bumps included in the first group and aligned along an opposing side of the four sides in a direction parallel to the one side.
