Abstract
Abstract The junction strength between the external terminals and the wiring substrate of a semiconductor device is improved without creating a large size semiconductor device. In the outer periphery of the back surface of an interposer substrate 1 Bi on which a semiconductor chip constructing a CSP type semiconductor device 1 is mounted, there are arranged a plurality of bump electrodes 1 BB 1 whose size in the direction intersecting the sides of the interposer substrate 1 B 1 is larger than that in the direction along the sides of the interposer substrate 1 Bi.
