Abstract:
1. A semiconductor module comprising a semiconductor stack including a plurality of semiconductor components arranged in a vertically stacked orientation, the plurality of semiconductor components comprising a basic semiconductor component, the basic semiconductor component comprising: an upper interposing unit including upper external contact pads disposed on an upper surface of the basic semiconductor component; a lower interposing unit including lower external contact pads disposed on a lower surface of the basic semiconductor component; a semiconductor chip disposed between the upper and lower interposing units, the upper interposing unit being mounted by a layer of adhesive which extends directly between a lower surface of the upper interposing unit and an upper surface of the semiconductor chip; and a spacer disposed between the upper and lower interposing units, the spacer comprising a plurality of raised ribs that are disposed on, and extend along an entire length of, opposite sides of the semiconductor chip, the spacer being comprised of plastic, wherein the external contact pads of the upper and lower interposing units are electrically connected via bonding connections comprising bond wires connected between bonding surfaces disposed in edge areas of the upper and lower interposing units, the external contact pads of the lower interposing unit include external contacts of the semiconductor module, and the external contact pads of the upper interposing unit are fit with external contact pads of a stacked semiconductor component.
