Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a memory module board mounting thereon a plurality of DRAM devices, and a mount board mounting thereon the memory module board via a combination of socket and plug. The socket formed on the mount board has a pair of heat radiation guide plates attached onto the side surfaces of the socket. The heat radiation plates have a thermal conductivity of 1 watt/meter·K. The surface of the mount board onto which the socket is attached is a conductive sheet having a thermal conductivity of 1 watt/meter·K.

Claims (14)

1. A semiconductor device comprising:

a module board mounting thereon an electric component and having a plug at an edge of said module board; and

a mount board having thereon a socket adapted to said plug on a surface portion of said mount board for mounting thereon said module board via said plug, said mount board comprising heat radiation fins fixed to said surface portion,

wherein said mount board has therein a heat radiation layer in contact with a bottom surface of said socket, said socket comprisiug a heat radiation guide plate in contact with a side surface of said socket,

wherein the mount board includes a mount for a cooling fan for cooling said heat radiation guide plate, and

wherein said heat radiation guide plate has a thermal conductivity of 1 watt/meter·K or above, and said heat radiation guide plate is in contact with said surface portion of said mount board.

2. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein said heat radiation layer comprises copper.

3. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , further comprising an interconnection area, wherein said heat radiation layer is disposed around said interconnection area.

4. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , further comprising an uppermost insulating layer, wherein said beat radiation layer replaces a portion of said uppermost insulating layer.

5. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein said heat radiation layer has a planer shape sufficient to encompass substantially an entire bottom surface of said socket.

6. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein said surface portion of said mount board has a thermal conductivity of 1 watt/meter·K or above.

7. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein said surface portion comprises a conductive sheet attached onto an insulating film of said mount board.

8. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein said electric component comprises a memory device.

9. The semiconductor device according to claim 6 , wherein said electric component comprises a memory device.
