Patent ID: 6900551

Claim:
A semiconductor device comprising: a semiconductor chip; a wiring substrate having the semiconductor chip mounted on a main surface; a plurality of electrode pads, each having a first connection end and a second connection end, arranged on a main surface of the semiconductor chip along at least one side of the semiconductor chip, the first connection ends being closer to the side of the semiconductor chip than the second connection ends; a plurality of connecting portions arranged in a first row and a second row on the main surface of the wiring substrate between the side of the semiconductor chip and an outer edge of the wiring substrate, the first row being closer to the side of the semiconductor chip than the second row; a plurality of wires, connected to the plurality of electrode pads and the plurality of connecting portions, to connect each of the first row connecting portions to the first connection end of a corresponding electrode pad, and to connect each of the second row connecting portions to the second connection end of a corresponding electrode pad; and a resin sealing body sealing up the semiconductor chip and the plurality of wires.
