Abstract
A semiconductor device includes: a first semiconductor chip having a surface provided with first electrodes; and an expanded semiconductor chip including a second semiconductor chip and an expanded portion extending outward from at least one side surface of the second semiconductor chip. The expanded semiconductor chip has a surface provided with second electrodes. The surface of the first semiconductor chip provided with the first electrodes faces the surface of the expanded semiconductor chip provided with the second electrodes so that the first electrodes are connected to the second electrodes. Each one of the second electrodes that is connected to an associated one of the first electrodes is located only on the expanded portion.
