Claims
- 1. A semiconductor assembly comprising:
- a semiconductor device having a container for containing a semiconductor chip and a plurality of external leads, each extending from inside of said container to an exterior portion outside of said container, said container being disposed on a printed circuit board,
- said exterior portion of each of the external leads extending outward to an upward bent portion joining with a first flat interconnection portion further extending outward to a downward bent portion joining with a second flat interconnection portion, said first flat interconnection portion being disposed at or above an upper surface level of the container, and said second flat interconnection portion being disposed at or below a lower surface level of the container,
- one of said first and second flat interconnection portions of each of the external leads being in electrical contact with the printed circuit board.
- 2. A semiconductor assembly as set forth in claim 1, wherein each interconnection portion has a rectangular shape and a width larger than other portions of the external lead.
- 3. A semiconductor assembly as set forth in claim 1, wherein said interconnection portion has a triangular shape which is so arranged as to form a mutually complementary shape with an interconnection portion of an adjacent external lead.
- 4. A semiconductor device adapted to be stacked with another device having a body and a lead extending outward downward bent portion joining with a first flat interconnection portion further extending outward to an upward bent portion joining with a second flat interconnection portion, the first flat interconnection portion being disposed at or below a lower surface level of the body, and the second flat interconnection portion being disposed at or above an upper surface level of the body, the semiconductor device comprising:
- a container for containing a semiconductor chip and an external lead extending from inside of said container to an exterior portion outside of said container,
- said exterior portion of the external lead extending outward to an upward bent portion joining with a first flat interconnection portion further extending outward to a downward bent portion joining with a second flat interconnection portion, said first flat interconnection portion being disposed at or above an upper surface level of the container, and said second flat interconnection portion being disposed at or below a lower surface level of the container.
- 5. A semiconductor device adapted to be stacked with another device having a body and a lead extending outward to an upward bent portion joining with a first flat interconnection portion further extending outward to a downward bent portion joining with a second flat interconnection portion, the first flat interconnection portion being disposed at or above an upper surface level of the body, and the second flat interconnection portion being disposed at or below a lower surface level of the body, the semiconductor device comprising:
- a container for containing a semiconductor chip and an external lead extending from inside of said container to an exterior portion outside of said container,
- said exterior portion of the external lead extending outward to a downward bent portion joining with a first flat interconnection portion further extending outward to an upward bent portion joining with a second flat interconnection portion, said first flat interconnection portion being disposed at or below a lower surface level of the container, and said second flat interconnection portion being disposed at or above an upper surface level of the container.
- 6. A semiconductor assembly comprising:
- a semiconductor device having a container for containing a semiconductor chip and a plurality of external leads, each extending from inside of said container to an exterior portion outside of said container, said container being disposed between two printed circuit boards,
- said exterior portion of each of the external leads extending outward to an upward bent portion joining with a first flat interconnection portion further extending outward to a downward bent portion joining with a second flat interconnection portion, said first flat interconnection portion being disposed at or below a lower surface level of the container,
- at least one of the external leads being in electrical contact with one of the printed circuit boards at the first flat interconnection portion thereof, and at least one of the external leads being in electrical contact with the other of the printed circuit boards at the second flat interconnection portion thereof.
