Abstract

An MCM-type semiconductor device allowing high-speed operation and reduction in power consumption, and is also capable of preventing reliability and yield rate of MCM from degrading. The reduction in power consumption and increase in operation speed are attained by connecting signal lines between in-chip circuits (30), (32) in an electrically direct manner. On the signal line, a protection circuit (406) for electrostatic damage protection is provided. In device fabrication, connection using interconnections (12) between the in-chip circuits (30), (32) is carried out while keeping a protection circuit (406) connected to the signal lines (internal draw-out lines (12a), internal interconnections (14)), by which circuit components can be protected from static electricity even if electric charge accumulated on the semiconductor chips (20), (22) should flow into the signal lines, because the protection circuit (406) can absorb the charge. After the connection is completed, the protection circuit (406) can be disconnected from the signal lines, so as to avoid the protection circuit (406) to function as a load on the in-chip circuits (30), (32) during normal operation, and to thereby prevent the operation speed from decreasing.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and its manufacturing method. More specifically, it relates to a semiconductor device to which a so-called multi-chip module (MCM: Multi-Chip Module) technique is applied, in which a plurality of semiconductor chips are assembled as one electronic component, and a method for manufacturing the same. Background technique [0002] In response to demands for miniaturization, light weight, and low power consumption of electrical products, mounting technologies for mounting these semiconductor elements at a high density are being developed together with high integration technologies for semiconductor elements. In such a mounting technology, in order to achieve further high-density mounting, in addition to multilayer wiring support substrate or carrier chip mounting, it is being developed to mount multiple semiconductor elements (semiconductor chips) in advance as one electronic component on the same sup...
