Abstract

A semiconductor device mounted on a mother board has a circuit board to be positioned on the mother board and a semiconductor chip positioned on the circuit board. The circuit board has a connection pad, a relay pad spaced away from the connection pad, and a wire connecting between the connection pad and the relay pad on a surface of the circuit board supporting the semiconductor chip. Also, the semiconductor chip has a connection pad corresponding to the connection pad formed on the circuit board. Further, the connection pad on the circuit board and the connection pad on the semiconductor chip are electrically connected to each other through a bonding wire.
