Abstract

Abstract In an SIP type module of the type wherein memory ICs are mounted to both surfaces of a substrate, the present invention provides a face package type memory module wherein packaging is made in an inclined direction in place of vertical packaging of the prior art technique and only the memory ICs mounted to the upper surface side of the substrate are deviated to the position closer to the end portion of the substrate in order to drastically reduce the packaging height.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 196 words
A semiconductor device comprising: a substantially rectangular shaped double-sided board having a first surface and a second surface and a plurality of external electrodes arranged on said first and second surfaces along one of its longer side edge of the board; a first set of integrated circuit devices mounted on the first surface along said longer side in a row and electrically conducting to said external electrodes on the first surface; and a second set of integrated circuit devices mounted on the second surface along said longer side in a row and electrically conducting to said external electrodes on the second surface, wherein said first set of integrated circuit devices are arranged closer to said longer side edge of the board where said external electrodes are arranged than said second set of integrated circuit devices so that when said double-sided board with said integrated circuit devices is mounted to a substrate at an angle for further electrical connection, said integrated circuit devices mounted to said first side are positioned below the level or at the same level as the other longer edge, thereby lowering the overall dimension of said semiconductor module when mounted to said substrate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 196 words
A semiconductor device comprising: a substantially rectangular shaped double-sided board having a first surface and a second surface and a plurality of external electrodes arranged on said first and second surfaces along one of its longer side edge of the board; a first set of integrated circuit devices mounted on the first surface along said longer side in a row and electrically conducting to said external electrodes on the first surface; and a second set of integrated circuit devices mounted on the second surface along said longer side in a row and electrically conducting to said external electrodes on the second surface, wherein said first set of integrated circuit devices are arranged closer to said longer side edge of the board where said external electrodes are arranged than said second set of integrated circuit devices so that when said double-sided board with said integrated circuit devices is mounted to a substrate at an angle for further electrical connection, said integrated circuit devices mounted to said first side are positioned below the level or at the same level as the other longer edge, thereby lowering the overall dimension of said semiconductor module when mounted to said substrate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 42 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 1, further comprising a first substrate for mounting said double-sided board at an angle and a socket member having a first mounting portion for electrically connecting said external electrodes of the board to said first substrate.

A semiconductor device according to claim 8, wherein each resin layer comprises a glass-epoxy resin material.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 33 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 1, wherein said board is mounted at an angle with respect to the socket member so that said second surface of the board faces said first substrate.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 39 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 3, wherein said board mounted at an angle so that the distance between said second surface and said first substrate is smaller than the distance between said first surface and said first substrate.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 33 words
A semiconductor device according to claim 6, wherein the board is mounted at an angle with respect to said first substrate so that the second surface of the board faces said first substrate.
