  • Patent number: 7652368
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a first semiconductor chip with an SDRAM and a second semiconductor chip with a an MPU controlling the SDRAM. The contour size of the semiconductor device is reduced to a smaller size without impairing the testability of the first semiconductor chip. The two semiconductor chips are stacked over the top surface of an interconnect substrate and sealed in a molding resin, thus forming an SiP (System-in-Package). First terminals electrically connected with the second chip are arranged as external terminals of the SiP on the outer periphery of the bottom surface of the interconnect substrate. Plural second electrodes electrically connected with interconnects, which electrically connect the two chips, are mounted as terminals for testing of the SDRAM. The second electrodes are located more inwardly than the innermost row of the first external electrodes on the bottom surface of the interconnect substrate.

  • Patent number: 6836021
    Abstract: A reduction in a size of a multichip module having a plurality of chips (higher-density mounting) and improvements in the reliability and functionality thereof are intended. By alternately repeating stacking in layers and processing of insulating films and conductive films, a microcomputer chip is face-down bonded to an upper portion of a wiring substrate having build-up substrate portions formed with wires with a surface of the microcomputer chip formed with a bump electrode facing downward. Memory chips are bonded onto an upper portion of the microcomputer chip with the respective surfaces thereof formed with bonding pads and the like facing upward. The bonding pads and the like are connected to bonding pads along edges of the wiring substrate with conductive wires. By thus disposing the microcomputer chip having multifunctionality and a larger number of terminals in a lower layer, the size reduction of a device and the like can be achieved.
