Abstract
Abstract Each of two semiconductor elements 1a or 1b is connected to wiring patterns 3a or 3b on an element substrate 2a or 2b via a bump 4a or 4b, respectively. These members are sealed off by sealing resin to form a semiconductor package 6a or 6b, and the same are disposed on a mounting substrate 8 one above the other with an adhesive agent 9 applied thereto. A portion of the wiring pattern 3a not covered by the sealing resin 5, which portion is connected to the semiconductor element 1a, a portion of the wiring pattern 3b connected to the semiconductor element 1b, and an electrode on the mounting substrate 8 are electrically interconnected by connecting wires 7.
