Is a unitary memory provided by connecting a semiconductor chip 22 to a substrate 21 on which a circuit pattern is formed by bumps 23 and injecting an epoxy resin 24 between the substrate 21 and the semiconductor chip 22. CSP (Chip Scale P)
and a plurality of bumps 25 for multi-stage connection are attached to pads provided on the CSP, and a desired multi-stage structure is formed via the bumps 25.

In the case of a semiconductor chip in which electrode pads are provided side by side at the center, there is no structure connecting the semiconductor chip and the substrate at the end of the semiconductor chip, so that the deflection of the substrate increases. Therefore, when a CSP in which a semiconductor chip is mounted on a connection pad provided in the center portion of a substrate is three-dimensionally stacked, the substrates are further bent, so that the gap between the substrates is varied, and the stress applied to the external terminals is biased. As a result, there is a disadvantage that the connection reliability of the external terminal is reduced.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, when a semiconductor chip 22 having electrode pads provided at two ends (or four sides) along two sides (or four sides) is mounted on both sides of the substrate 21, a semiconductor chip on the front side of the substrate 21 is provided. Electrode pads 27a and 27b of chip 22 and electrode pads 27a and 27b of semiconductor chip 22 on the back side
Is reversed. Therefore, for example, when the address pads and the data pads are shared or the external terminals are shared, the routing of the wiring pattern on the substrate 21 becomes complicated. As a result, inconveniences such as a decrease in performance, an increase in cost, and a case where a substrate cannot be formed may occur.

According to the present invention, the following excellent effects can be obtained. (1) Since an electrode pad is provided in the center portion of the semiconductor chip and connection pads are provided on the front and back surfaces of the substrate at positions corresponding to the electrode pads of the semiconductor chip, the semiconductor chip is mounted on the front and back surfaces of the substrate. Even so, wiring can be easily routed to share external terminals and the like. (2) Since the semiconductor chip is mounted on both the front surface and the rear surface of the substrate, the number of substrates is reduced by half compared to the conventional case, and the manufacturing cost can be greatly reduced. (3) Since the semiconductor chip is mounted symmetrically with respect to the substrate, the stress applied to the substrate is offset between the front surface and the back surface, and the amount of warpage of the substrate is reduced. In addition, since the amount of warpage of each substrate is reduced, the variation in the distance between the substrates during stacking is also reduced, so that the stress applied to the conductive material of the external terminals is also made uniform. As a result, the connection reliability of the external terminals is improved.
