Abstract

A multichip module includes at least one first semiconductor chip and at least one second semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chips are arranged in coplanar fashion on or in a support medium and respectively include matching components and contact areas arranged on their active top sides. At least one second semiconductor chip includes an arrangement of contact areas which is mirror-inverted in relation to a first semiconductor chip. At least one first semiconductor chip and at least one second semiconductor chip are arranged next to and/or behind one another (i.e., adjacent to one another) such that those of their edges which respectively have a matching arrangement of contact areas are opposite one another. Wiring arrangements extend between respectively opposite contact areas and between contact areas at the outer edges of the semiconductor chips and external contacts.
