Patent ID: 6838767

Claim:
A semiconductor device comprising: a rectangular interconnection substrate having a first main surface and a second main surface which are opposite to each other, a plurality of interconnections and a plurality of interconnecting portions; a semiconductor chip having, on the main surface thereof, a plurality of bonding pads and being disposed on the first main surface of the interconnection substrate; a first row of wire connecting portions formed on the first main surface of the interconnection substrate; a second row of wire connecting portions disposed apart from the first row of wire connecting portions at a position more internal than the first row of wire connecting portions and between the first row of wire connecting portions and a side of the semiconductor chip on the first main surface of the interconnection substrate; a plurality of bonding wires for electrically connecting the plurality of bonding pads with the plurality of interconnections, respectively; a plurality of external terminals disposed on the second main surface of with the interconnection substrate and electrically connected the wire connecting portions of the first row of wire connecting portions and the wire connecting portions of the second row of wire connecting portions via the plurality of interconnections, respectively; and a resin body sealing the semiconductor chip, the bonding wires, the first row of wire connecting portions and the second row of wire connecting portions; wherein the wire connecting portions of the first row of wire connecting portions are electrically connected with the wire connecting portions of the second row of wire connecting portions via the interconnecting portions, respectively, on the first main surface of the interconnection substrate, wherein the width of each of the wire connecting portions of the first row of connecting portions and the second row of connecting portions is larger than the width of the interconnecting portions, and wherein each of the bonding wires is connected to each of the connecting portions of the second row of connecting portions, respectively.
