Patent ID: 7598618

Claim:
A semiconductor device, comprising: a first semiconductor chip having first and second surfaces and having a first circuit element therein, the first semiconductor chip comprising a first through-hole electrode, a second through-hole electrode, and a third through-hole electrode, the second surface disposed on a side opposite the first surface, the first through-hole electrode penetrating through the first semiconductor chip from the first surface to the second surface and electrically isolated from the first circuit element, the second and third through-hole electrodes penetrating through the first semiconductor chip from the first surface to the second surface and electrically coupled to the first circuit element; a capacitor chip laminated on the first semiconductor chip, the capacitor chip comprising a third surface, the third surface having a capacitor element thereon, the capacitor element is a peripheral condenser component of the first semiconductor chip; an external input terminal disposed on a side of the capacitor chip opposite the third surface and across from the first semiconductor chip, the external input terminal configured such that a signal is input thereto; and an external output terminal disposed on the opposite side of the capacitor chip across from the first semiconductor chip, the external output terminal configured such that a signal is externally output therefrom, either the external input terminal or the external output terminal electrically coupled to the capacitor element and the second through-hole electrode through the first through-hole electrode, an other of the external input terminal and the external output terminal coupled to the first circuit element through the third through-hole electrode.
