Abstract: A method of manufacturing semiconductor devices includes: coupling first and the second substrates by coupling a back surface of the second substrate with a front surface of the first substrate, thereby producing a step-like structure, with an uncovered portion of the front surface of the first substrate left uncovered by the second substrate coupling a first integrated circuit with the uncovered portion of the front surface of the first substrate; and coupling a second integrated circuit with the second substrate and the first integrated circuit by arranging the second integrated circuit extending bridge—like between the second substrate and the first integrated circuit.
