  • Publication number: 20240071898
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip having a main electrode on a front surface thereof, a wiring board having a front surface to which a rear surface of the semiconductor chip is bonded, a sealing member sealing the wiring board and the semiconductor chip, and an adhesive layer including at least two adhesive films that are laminated to each other. The adhesive layer is provided on surfaces of the wiring board and the semiconductor chip so that the sealing member seals the wiring board and the semiconductor chip via the adhesive layer. As a result, the sealing member is able to reliably seal the semiconductor chip and wiring board via the adhesive layer, thereby preventing an occurrence and extension of separation.

  • Patent number: 9199817
    Abstract: A medium discharging apparatus includes a pair of discharging rollers, a stacker, and a pressing member. The pair of discharging rollers are configured to rotate to discharge a sheet of medium held therebetween. The discharged sheet of medium and are stacked onto the stacker. The pressing member is disposed downstream of the discharging rollers with respect to a path into which the medium is discharged by the discharging rollers. The pressing member is configured to traverse the path and to swing about a shaft due to a gravity force thereof. When the sheet of medium is discharged by the discharging rollers, the pressing member interferes with the sheet of medium and exerts the gravity force on the sheet of medium downward toward the stacker while swinging about the shaft.
