Abstract

A semiconductor device such as a COF or the like is provided on a semiconductor chip on a film-like shaped flexile wiring substrate on which a wiring pattern is formed. Between the semiconductor chip and the flexile wiring substrate, a sealing resin is filled for protecting the semiconductor chip. In the semiconductor device, a resin trace is 0.1 to 1.0 mm in width and 10 μm in thickness, the resin trace being formed when applying the sealing resin along a longitudinal side of the semiconductor chip.

Claims (26)
