Abstract

Abstract The object of the present invention is to provide a stacked semiconductor device which can diffuse heat generated by the semiconductor chip in the module substrate, other semiconductor chips, the mother board, and the radiator plate, and can prevent needless increases in the temperature of an operating semiconductor chip; in order to achieve this object, the stacked semiconductor device of the present invention comprises a mother board and a module-stacked body mounted on the mother board, the module-stacked body comprising staked two or more modules each of which comprises a module substrate and a semiconductor chip mounted to the module substrate, wherein at least one radiator hole is formed in each of the module substrates and the mother board so that the radiator hole faces to the semiconductor chips.
