Abstract
A semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor chip substrate, an integrated circuit formed on a surface of the semiconductor chip substrate, and metal electrodes extending from the integrated circuit to at least one of the side surfaces of the semiconductor chip substrate. Occupation area on a wiring circuit board can be reduced. Damaged chips can be exchanged easily. When it is set vertically, heat radiation efficiency can be improved.
