Abstract
Abstract Resin meltable at a time of reflowing is provided on the surface of a semiconductor chip and top ends of the connection electrodes are located parallel with the surface of the resin. A semiconductor chip is mounted on a mounting substrate and, upon reflowing, the resin is molten to allow the semiconductive chip to be bonded to the mounting substrate and encapsulate a resultant structure.
