Abstract

A semiconductor device having semiconductor chips of different thicknesses is provided. The semiconductor device may include a first semiconductor chip, a sub-board on a first side of the first semiconductor chip, at least one second semiconductor chip on a second side of the first semiconductor chip, at least one external contact terminal on the at least one second semiconductor chip. In example embodiments the at least one second semiconductor chip may include a plurality of through silicon vias and the at least one external contact terminal may be in electrical contact with the first semiconductor chip and the at least one second semiconductor chip via the plurality of through silicon vias. In example embodiments, the at least one second semiconductor chip may be thinner than the first semiconductor chip.
