  • Patent number: 9219021
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate serving as a base and having a surface on which electrodes are provided, a semiconductor chip mounted to the surface of the substrate, a sealing portion sealing the semiconductor chip and the surface of the substrate, first vias each penetrating the sealing portion in a thickness direction of the sealing portion to reach the electrodes on the surface of the substrate, external terminals connected to the first vias, and second vias provided near the semiconductor chip, extending to such a depth that the second vias do not penetrate the sealing portion, and insulated from the substrate and the semiconductor chip.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8120128
    Abstract: An optical device includes a base and an optical element. The base has a through hole in a center and includes leads and a resin. Each lead has an L-shaped cross-section and is formed by an inner lead extending from the center toward a peripheral edge and an outer lead connected to the inner lead and extending downward. The optical element is provided under the base so as to correspond to the through hole. Electrode pads of the optical element are connected to the leads of the base through bumps, respectively. The resin is formed so as to cover respective inner ends of the leads and respective front surfaces of the inner leads and to fill a gap between adjacent leads, and respective outer ends of the leads and respective front surfaces of the outer leads are exposed.

  • Publication number: 20030004838
    Abstract: A system in which re-presentation of a search inquiry from an user to a call center can be omitted when a request for agent help is made. It is realized in an information search system that includes a user terminal 3 connected to a network such as the Internet 2, a call center Web server 7 for receiving a search condition sent from the user terminal 3 via the network, and an agent terminal 6 connected to the call center Web server 7. The call center Web server 7 search includes a search history preserving unit for preserving search histories, and an output unit for outputting a search history preserved in the search history preserving means to the agent terminal 6 when a connection request from the user terminal 3 to the agent terminal 6 is made.
