Abstract

Semiconductor device has a regulator circuit having an even number of switching regulators that generate output power from an input power supply and a power management IC that controls the output potential generated by the switching regulator. semiconductor device is characterized in that a group of half of the even number of switching regulators is arranged on a first surface of semiconductor device system board, and a group of switching regulators, which is the remaining half, is arranged on a second surface that is in front-back relation with the first surface. This semiconductor device reduces semiconductor device board-area (pattern-resource).
