Patent ID: 8736073

Claim:
A semiconductor device comprising: a first insulating layer being an outermost layer of the semiconductor device; a wiring layer that is formed on a first surface of the first insulating layer and includes a first electrode pad; a semiconductor chip having a circuit forming surface positioned on a surface of the semiconductor chip opposite to the first insulating layer; a second insulating layer that is formed on the first surface of the first insulating layer, coats the wiring layer, and includes a semiconductor chip accommodating portion for accommodating the semiconductor chip; a third insulating layer that is arranged on the second insulating layer and coats the circuit forming surface and side surfaces of the semiconductor chip; and a passive element that includes an electrode and is formed of an embedded portion embedded in at least the first insulating layer and a protruding portion protruding from a second surface opposite to the first surface of the first insulating layer, wherein an end surface of the embedded portion is coated by one of the first, second, and third insulating layers, the electrode of the passive element is positioned at an end of the embedded portion and electrically connected to the wiring layer through a via wiring formed in at least the one of the first, second, and third insulating layers coating the end surface of the embedded portion, the first electrode pad is electrically connected to another semiconductor device through a joining portion, and a protruding amount of the protruding portion protruding from the second surface of the first insulating layer is less than a gap between the second surface of the first insulating layer and a surface of the another semiconductor device facing the second surface of the first insulating layer.
