  • Publication number: 20030174481
    Abstract: A semiconductor module includes a substrate having a pad electrode on a surface, a lower layer semiconductor package mounted on the substrate, and an upper layer semiconductor package mounted on the substrate while arranged in a position substantially overlying the former. The pad electrodes connected to the leads of these semiconductor packages are arranged alternately. The lead has a dambar residual portion. An inner surface of a lead downward portion of the upper layer semiconductor package is positioned outside an outer surface of a lead downward portion of the lower layer semiconductor package.

  • Publication number: 20030080438
    Abstract: A plurality of substrates are stacked on top of each other. A flexible cable serially connects the substrates. Semiconductor packages are mounted on the surfaces of the substrates. An adhesive material bonds adjoining semiconductor packages and holds the semiconductor packages in place with respect to each other. The bottommost substrate is provided with external leads by which the semiconductor module is mounted on the motherboard.

  • Publication number: 20030051893
    Abstract: The present invention has a purpose to provide a surface-mounting connector for electrically connecting with the terminals of the semiconductor module board by pinching thereof, without soldering. The surface-mounting connector includes a supporting member made of insulating material having a first and second surfaces, and a top-surface connecting lead pin and a bottom-surface connecting lead pin. The lead pins are disposed in parallel with a predetermined gap and supported by the supporting member. The top-surface connecting lead pin and the bottom-surface connecting lead pin have one end portions bent in a predetermined direction at different positions away from the first surface of the supporting member.

  • Patent number: 6521984
    Abstract: The present invention provides an inexpensive semiconductor module of large capacity capable of being formed into a small-sized semiconductor module without using any special assembling component irrespective of thickness of a semiconductor device to be packaged therein. A semiconductor module unit 6 is formed by packaging a bump electrode 3 of a semiconductor device 4 in electrode pad 5a that are disposed on upper and lower faces of a unit substrate 5. A mother substrate 17 is provided with upper and lower faces on which an electrode pad 17d of a circuit pattern is formed, and a center part in which welding balls of same diameter can be packaged. A semiconductor module unit 6 is arranged on both faces of the mother substrate 17 so that the semiconductor devices 4 may be inserted back to back with a small distance between them. The unit substrate 5 and the electrode pads 5b, 17d of the mother substrate 17 are conductively connected through a connection bump 18.
