Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a core substrate, and at least one insulating layer and at least one wiring layer that are disposed on a first surface and a second, opposite surface of the substrate. The semiconductor device includes a via disposed in the insulating layer and in the core substrate, and which connects the wiring layers to one another. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element mounted on the first surface, forming an electrode terminal that faces up. The semiconductor device includes a connecting portion that penetrates the insulating layer and directly connects the electrode terminal of the semiconductor element and the wiring layer on the first surface. A minimum wiring pitch of this wiring that of any wiring layer on the second surface.
