  • Patent number: 8054646
    Abstract: The present invention provides a circuit board connecting structure enabled to obtain the reliable connection between circuit patterns by restricting the elongation of a flexible base material even when connecting portions are arranged in a face-to-face configuration and are press-contacted with each other. A circuit board connecting structure 10 includes a first circuit board 11, and a second circuit board 12. The circuit board connecting structure 10 is configured so that when a first connecting portion 13 and a second connecting portion 14 are sandwiched by a pair of pressing jigs 18, 19 and are press-contacted with each other, one 23 of first outer dummy terminals is accommodated between columns of ones 33, 33 of second outer dummy terminals, while the other first outer dummy terminal 24 is accommodated between columns of the other ones 34, 34 of the second outer dummy terminals.

  • Patent number: 7999376
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device by packaging a plurality of semiconductor chips three-dimensionally in a smaller thickness, with a smaller footprint, at the lower cost without using any other components and through a simpler manufacturing process of the semiconductor device than with the conventional methods. A flip chip packaging structure is formed by directly connecting a first semiconductor chip (101) reduced in thickness by back grinding and a substrate (105) via a bump electrode (102) to a wiring pattern (106). Also, a second semiconductor chip (103) is formed with an electrode (104) that is higher than the sum of the thickness of the first semiconductor chip (101) and the height of the electrode (102), and the electrode (104) is directly connected to the wiring pattern (106) on the substrate (105), whereby the most-compact three-dimensional semiconductor packaged device is produced.

  • Patent number: 7967625
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a connector body and a seal protection cap. The connector body includes a cap housing, a body, and a fitting section provided with a seal. The seal protection cap includes a front face plate and a protection section. The front face plate is provided with an opening in order to allow a continuity check from a front face of the fitting section. The protection section extends cylindrically from a peripheral edge of the front face plate along a side face of the fitting section so as to cover the seal. The seal protection cap is applied to the fitting section of the connector body so as to cover the seal.
