Patent ID: 7560819

Claim:
A semiconductor device, comprising: a semiconductor chip that has a first surface on which an electrode is formed, a second surface and a third surface, the second surface of the semiconductor chip being substantially perpendicular to the first surface of the semiconductor chip, the third surface of the semiconductor chip being an opposite surface of the second surface of the semiconductor chip; a substrate that has a first surface on which an interconnect pattern is formed, the interconnect pattern being electrically connected to the electrode; and an adhesive that has a first portion and a second portion, the first portion interposed between the first surface of the substrate and the first surface of the semiconductor chip, the second portion not overlapping with the semiconductor chip, wherein the second portion of the adhesive covers a whole area of the second surface of the semiconductor chip and a whole area of the third surface of the semiconductor chip, and a thickness of any part of the second portion of the adhesive is thicker than an interval between the first surface of the semiconductor chip and the interconnect pattern on the substrate.
