20080290495 | Low noise semiconductor device - As a power feed route in a semiconductor chip, a power feed route which reduces antiresonance impedance in the frequency range of tens of MHz is to be realized thereby to suppress power noise in a semiconductor device. By inserting structures which raise the resistance in the medium frequency band into parts where the resistance is intrinsically high, such as power wiring in a semiconductor package and capacitor interconnecting electrode parts, the antiresonance impedance in the medium frequency band can be effectively reduced while keeping the impedance low at the low frequency. | 11-27-2008 |
20090086522 | ADDRESS LINE WIRING STRUCTURE AND PRINTED WIRING BOARD HAVING SAME - An address signal line having a stub structure connects between at least three memory elements and a data transferring element and transmits address signals for the memory elements.

20090189293 | Semiconductor device - A semiconductor device having a chip-on-chip structure is constituted of a first semiconductor chip and even-numbered pairs of second semiconductor chips, all of which are laminated together on the surface of an interposer. The first semiconductor chip controls each pair of the second semiconductor chips so as to activate one second semiconductor chip while inactivating another second semiconductor chip. The second semiconductor chips are paired together in such a way that through-vias and electrodes thereof are positioned opposite to each other via bumps. Since drive voltage electrodes supplied with a drive voltage (VDD) and reference potential electrodes supplied with a reference potential (VSS) are mutually connected together between the paired second semiconductor chips, it is possible to increase the overall electrostatic capacitance of each second semiconductor chip so as to substantially reduce feed noise without increasing the overall layout area of the semiconductor device. | 07-30-2009 |

The module substrate has first and second mounting areas of different coordinates in an X direction, and the second mounting area has third and fourth mounting areas of different Y coordinates. The regular packages are oppositely arranged in the first mounting area on a surface and the back surface of the module substrate.

20110109361 | Semiconductor device and information processing system - The semiconductor device includes an output driver and a characteristic switching circuit that switches characteristics of the output driver. The characteristic switching circuit mutually matches a rising time and a falling time of an output signal output from the output driver, when a power voltage supplied to a power line is a first voltage, with a rising time and a falling time of the output signal output from the output driver, when the power voltage supplied to the power line is a second voltage. As a result, an increase in an influence of a harmonic component or a crosstalk when the power voltage is reduced does not occur. Moreover, because a receiving condition on a receiver side does not change even when the power voltage is reduced, signal transmission and reception can be performed correctly irrespective of the power voltage. | 05-12-2011 |
