Abstract

According to one embodiment, the interconnect layer includes a fourth conductive member and a fifth conductive member. The fourth conductive member is provided between the first region of the first chip and the third region of the second chip. The fourth conductive member connects the first conductive member of the first chip and the second conductive member of the second chip. The fifth conductive member is provided between the second region of the first chip and the fifth region of the third chip. The fifth conductive member connects the first conductive member of the first chip and the third conductive member of the third chip. The first chip is provided between the first terminal and the second terminal.
