Abstract
This invention prevents a substrate of a semiconductor chip that has through-silicon vias collectively arranged in a specific area thereof from becoming cracked. When a direction in parallel with a long side of a first semiconductor chip is defined as a row direction and a direction perpendicular to the long side of the first semiconductor chip is defined as a column direction, each one of the first through-silicon vias is arranged on any one of grid points arranged in m rows and n columns (m>n). In addition, as viewed in a cross section taken along a short side of the first semiconductor chip, the center of a through-silicon via area, which is defined by coupling the outermost grid points arranged in m rows and n columns, is off center of the short side of the first semiconductor chip in a first direction.
