  • Patent number: 7453153
    Abstract: The ground noise is reduced which propagates between circuit elements in a circuit device having a multiple stack structure. A grounding bonding pad provided on the surface of a second circuit element is connected to a bonding wire provided on the surface of a conduction layer via a grounding wire such as gold. A bonding pad provided on the surface of the conductive layer is connected to a lead provided on a ground wire via a grounding wire such as gold. This structure creates a capacitance between the second circuit element and the conduction layer so as to prevent the propagation of noise circuit from element to the ground wiring.

  • Patent number: 7450397
    Abstract: A wiring board in which a line can be made narrower and/or a transmission loss can be reduced is developed. The wiring board includes a first conductor and a second conductor maintained at the same potential, a dielectric material layer provided between the first and second conductors, and a third conductor embedded in the dielectric material layer. In the wiring board, a thickness of the dielectric material layer in a first region located between the third conductor and the first conductor is larger than a thickness of the dielectric material layer in a second region located between the third conductor and the second conductor. Moreover, a cross-sectional shape of the third conductor is trapezoidal in which angles of respective ends of the third conductor on a side closer to the second conductor are obtuse.
