Abstract: According to this invention, a wiring board includes a conductive pattern formed from leads each of which is formed on an organic layer and has a thickness t larger than a width W.
Abstract: According to this invention, a semiconductor device has an upper surface on which an external connection electrode is formed and a lower surface which opposes the upper surface and is in a mirror surface state. A roughened region roughened by laser marking is formed at part of the lower surface. The roughened region includes a product information mark of the semiconductor device itself. The product information mark is printed by laser marking. The number, size, shape, and layout position of the roughened regions are decided to make it possible to, when the lower surface is irradiated with light, read the product information from the difference in light reflectance between the roughened region and mirror-finished region.
Abstract: Where the length LD of a resin film forming region is, for example, 3 times as long as the pitch of the sprocket holes of the base film, the resin coating is performed by using 6 nozzles, and where the length LD is, for example, 6 times as long as the pitch of the sprocket holes, the resin coating is performed by using 3 nozzles. As a result, the transfer distance of the base film transferred in a single resin coating process is 18 times as long as the pitch of the sprocket holes. It follows that it is possible to set constant the time for the base film to pass through the drying section even if the length LD of the resin film forming region differs.
Abstract: A flexible wiring board is provided which is made of a relatively thin polyimide film and, thus, can be bent easily. Therefore, the flexible wiring board can be bent easily in the vicinity of a semiconductor chip mounting region without forming slits for facilitating the bending in the film substrate. As a result, it is possible to decrease the length of that portion of the flexible wiring board which is positioned ahead of the semiconductor chip mounting region.
