  • Patent number: 6946723
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a semiconductor element is obtained by cutting a semiconductor wafer, having an electrode pad formed on one side thereof, along a scribe line. The semiconductor device has a semiconductor element protective layer on the semiconductor element so as to form an opening above the pad, a stress cushioning layer on the layer so as to form an opening on the pad, a lead wire portion reaching the layer from the electrode pad via the openings, external electrodes on the lead wire portion, and a conductor protective layer on the layer. The layer, the layer, and the conductor protective layer form respective end faces on the end surface of the semiconductor element inside the scribe line and expose a surface of the semiconductor element from the end face of the end surface to a point inside of the scribe line, thereby to expose the scribe line.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device is provided which enables a flip chip connection without use of underfill. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element having circuit electrodes and a circuit surface coated with a protecting film. A stress relaxation layer is provided by coating a cured thermoplastic resin onto the protecting film of the circuit surface in a manner which leaves the circuit electrodes exposed and curing it and having an inclination in the edge portion thereof. A wiring layer with wirings is connected to each of the circuit electrodes and disposed so as to make an electrical connection from the circuit electrodes, via the edge portion of the stress relaxation layer, and to a desired portion on the surface of the stress relaxation layer. A protecting film is provided thereon, and an external connection terminal is also provided.
