Abstract:
A cavity elongated in one direction is formed in a protective film covering the conductive pattern of the topmost conductive layer of a multilayer wiring substrate. The cavity exposes part of the conductive pattern. A first via-conductor extends downward from the conductive pattern of the topmost conductive layer at least until that of a second conductive layer. Second via-conductors extend downward from the conductive pattern of the second or third conductive layer at least until that of a conductive layer one below. As viewed from above, the first via-conductor and the cavity partially overlap each other. At least two second via-conductors are disposed to sandwich the cavity therebetween. The difference between the smallest gap between the cavity and the second via-conductor at one side and that between the cavity and the second via-conductor at the other side is smaller than the smallest gap between the cavity and the second via-conductors.
