Abstract: A bonding method (three-dimensional mounting) of semiconductor substrates is provided to sequentially bond a principal surface of a silicon wafer on which coupling bumps are formed, and a principal surface of the other silicon wafer on which pads are formed, by an adhesive applied to at least one of the principal surfaces. However, there is a problem of poor electrical coupling due to displacement of the bumps and the pads when bonded together. The present invention solves such a problem by conducting temporary positioning of the silicon wafers, adjusting the positions of the coupling bumps and pads while confirming the positions by a method such as x-ray capable of passing through the silicon wafers, and bonding the bumps and the pads together while hardening an interlayer adhesive provided between the principal surfaces of the silicon wafers by thermocompression.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip formed with connection terminals, an elastic structure interposed between a main surface of the chip and a wiring substrate formed with wirings connected at first ends thereof to the connection terminals, and bump electrodes connected to the other ends of the wirings. The connection terminals may be at a center part or in peripheral part(s) of the chip main surface and both the elastic structure and wiring substrate are not provided at locations of connection terminals. A resin body seals at least the connection terminals and the exposed first ends of wirings (leads). In a scheme in which the connection terminals are located in a peripheral part of the chip main surface, the wiring substrate protrudes beyond the chip boundary where the connection terminals are arranged, and the resin body shape is restricted by the protruding part of the wiring substrate.

Abstract: In surface packaging of thin resin packages such as resin molded memory ICs or the like, cracks of the package occur frequently at a solder reflow step where thermal impact is applied to the package because the resin has absorbed moisture before packaging. To solve this problem, the devices are packaged moisture-tight at an assembly step of the resin molded devices where the resin is still dry, and are taken out from the bags immediately before the execution of surface packaging.

Abstract: As the semiconductor chip is large-sized, highly integrated and speeded up, it becomes difficult to pack the semiconductor chip together with leads in a package. In view of this difficulty, there has been adopted the package structure called the “Lead-On-Chip” or “Chip-On-Lead” structure in which the semiconductor and the leads are stacked and packed. In the package of this structure, according to the present invention, the gap between the leading end portions of the inner leads and the semiconductor chip is made wider than that between the inner lead portions except the leading end portions and the semiconductor chip thereby to reduce the stray capacity, to improve the signal transmission rate and to reduce the electrical noises.
