Semiconductor device and method of fabricating the same
View Patent ↗A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes: mounting a semiconductor chip on a substrate; forming an upper connection terminal on a side of the substrate on which the semiconductor chip is mounted; forming a resin seal portion that seals the semiconductor chip and the upper connection terminal so that an upper surface of the upper connection terminal is exposed; and shaping the upper connection terminal so that the upper surface of the upper connection terminal becomes lower than an upper surface of the resin seal portion.
