Abstract:
A semiconductor element comprising:(a) wirings formed on an integrated circuit mounting surface of a semiconductor chip to extend from an integrated circuit to end portions of the semiconductor chip which reach the edge of the side surface of the semiconductor chip;(b) external connection terminals formed so as to connect electrically an external device arranged on an outside of the semiconductor chip, at least bonding areas of the external connection terminals being disposed only on side surfaces, a back surface, or both the side surfaces and the back surface of the semiconductor chip;(c) terminal wiring connection members formed integrally with the external connection terminals, extending on the side surface or the back surface of the semiconductor chip and the integrated circuit mounting surface, and connected to the wirings; and(d) insulators having an adhesive property disposed between at least one of the side surfaces or the back surface of the semiconductor chip and the external connection terminals.
