Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an electronic device.

Background Art

[0002] As the high integration and high functionality of semiconductor devices progress, there is a tendency for many functions to be incorporated into a single semiconductor device. Therefore, the number of terminals of the semiconductor device is increasing, and it is necessary to arrange a large number of terminals at a narrow pitch. However, when a large number of terminals are arranged at a narrow pitch, various drawbacks occur, such as malfunction due to the influence of electromagnetic crosstalk between terminals, and an increase in the mounting area when attempting to arrange a large number of terminals without malfunction.

[0003] To address such drawbacks, for example, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, in the substrate on which the semiconductor device is mounted, the pads connected to the outermost peripheral terminal electrodes of the semiconductor device are made oval or relatively small, and a technique for drawing wiring from pads located inside the outermost periphery is known.

The bonding wire 380 is electrically connected to electrodes (not shown) formed on the +z side of the base substrate 300. Multiple electrodes (not shown) are also provided on the -z side of the base substrate 300. Solder balls 310 are attached to each of the electrodes on the -z side of the base substrate 300. In other words, the base substrate 300 is provided with multiple solder balls 310, which are terminals. The printed circuit board 400, which is the main board 50 in Figure 2, is provided with multiple pads 410 and multiple wirings (not shown), and each of the multiple solder balls 310 is connected to each of the multiple pads 410. The base substrate 300 is electrically connected to the printed circuit board 400 by the multiple solder balls 310. The multiple solder balls 310 constitute a so-called ball grid array that electrically and mechanically connects the base substrate 300 and the printed circuit board 400. In the following explanation, the -z side of the base board 300 to which multiple solder balls 310 are attached will be referred to as the terminal mounting surface 301.

[0043] The package 330 is composed of a base substrate 300, a housing 350, and a ball grid array consisting of multiple solder balls 310. The integrated circuit chip 200 is mounted on the base substrate 300, which is the internal substrate of the package 330.

Solder balls 310 connected to the motor driver 110, head drive IC 120, serial flash memory 130, DDR 140, and connectors 151, 152, 153, 154, etc., are located at or near the outermost edge of the terminal mounting surface 301. The multiple solder balls 310 located at the outermost edge are spaced further apart to ensure space for wiring connected to the solder balls 310 inside them. In addition, power voltage is supplied to the multiple solder balls 310 located in the central area enclosed by the dashed line on the terminal mounting surface 301.

[0051] The memory unit 260 includes a ROM 261, a RAM 262, and a register 263. ROM stands for Read Only Memory, and RAM stands for Random Access Memory. ROM 261 stores various programs and predetermined data. RAM 262 is used as a workspace for the control unit 210 and stores programs and data read from ROM 261, as well as data temporarily generated by the control unit 210. Register 263 stores various setting data, etc.

[0052] The control unit 210 performs various control and image processing functions. In this embodiment, the control unit 210 is a processor such as a CPU, and performs various control and image processing functions by executing a program (not shown) stored in the ROM 261. However, some of the processing of the control unit 210 may be implemented in hardware.

[0053] Specifically, the control unit 210 performs various controls on the motor driver 110, the head drive IC 120, the scanner module 63, and the LCD control IC 160.

[0054] Furthermore, the control unit 210 communicates with PC2 via USB by controlling the USB interface circuit 221. The control unit 210 also communicates with SD control IC 170 via USB by controlling the USB interface circuit 222. Additionally, the control unit 210 communicates with the wireless LAN module 64 via USB by controlling the USB interface circuit 223. Finally, the control unit 210 transmits image data to the LCD control IC 160.

[0055] Furthermore, the control unit 210 controls the memory interface circuit 231 to write and read data to and from the serial flash memory 130. The control unit 210 also controls the memory interface circuit 232 to write and read data to and from the DDR140.

[0056] For example, the control unit 210 receives image data for printing from PC2 via USB interface circuit 221 and writes it to serial flash memory 130 or DDR140. Also, for example, the control unit 210 receives image data stored on SD card 3 from SD control IC 170 via USB interface circuit 222 and writes it to serial flash memory 130 or DDR140. Also, for example, the control unit 210 receives image data from wireless LAN module 64 via USB interface circuit 223 and writes it to serial flash memory 130 or DDR140. Also, for example, the control unit 210 acquires scan data from scanner module 63 and scans Image processing is performed on the data to generate image data, which is then written to serial flash memory 130 or DDR140.

[0057] Furthermore, for example, the control unit 210 writes the image data generated by performing image processing on the scan data to the serial flash memory 130 or DDR140.

[0058] Furthermore, for example, the control unit 210 reads image data for printing from the serial flash memory 130 or DDR140, performs image processing for printing to generate print data, and outputs it to the head drive IC 120. Also, for example, the control unit 210 reads image data from the serial flash memory 130 or DDR140 and transmits it to the PC2 via the USB interface circuit 221. Also, for example, the control unit 210 reads image data from the serial flash memory 130 or DDR140 and transmits it to the SD control IC 170 via the USB interface circuit 222. Also, for example, the control unit 210 reads image data from the serial flash memory 130 or DDR140 and transmits it to the wireless LAN module 64 via the USB interface circuit 223.

[0059] Furthermore, the control unit 210 controls the input and output of each of the GPIO241-1 to 241-n. Specifically, the control unit 210 controls each of the GPIO241-1 to 241-n to become either an input / output circuit, an input circuit, or an output circuit. For example, the control unit 210 may control GPIO241-k and Tl from GPIO241-3 to 241-n to become output circuits, and output control signals from terminals Tk and Tl to the power supply circuit 190 and the reset IC 192, respectively.

[0060] As shown in Figure 5, terminal Tv of the integrated circuit chip 200 is connected to terminal Sv of the semiconductor device 100. Terminal Sv of the semiconductor device 100 is connected to pad Pv provided on the printed circuit board 400. Pad Pv is one of the multiple pads 410 shown in Figure 3. On the printed circuit board 400, pad Pv is connected to wiring 320v. Wiring 320v is a power supply wiring, and the semiconductor device 100 is supplied with a power supply voltage VDD of several volts generated by the power supply circuit 190 shown in Figure 2 from terminal Sv. Each part of the integrated circuit chip 200 operates when supplied with the power supply voltage VDD.

[0061] Furthermore, terminals Ta, Tb, Tc, and Td of the integrated circuit chip 200 are connected to terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd of the semiconductor device 100, respectively. Terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd of the semiconductor device 100 are solder balls 310 provided on the terminal mounting surface 301, respectively, and are connected to pads Pa, Pb, Pc, and Pd provided on the printed circuit board 400. Pads Pa, Pb, Pc, and Pd are each one of the multiple pads 410 shown in Figure 3. On the printed circuit board 400, pads Pa, Pb, Pc, and Pd are connected to wirings 320a, 320b, 320c, and 320d, respectively. Wirings 320a, 320b, 320c, and 320d are constant potential wirings with a constant potential, for example, the ground potential.

[0062] Furthermore, terminals Ta, Tb, Tc, and Td of the integrated circuit chip 200 are connected to the power supply voltage VDD via resistors 270a, 270b, 270c, and 270d, respectively. In other words, resistors 270a, 270b, 270c, and 270d function as pull-up resistors. Therefore, terminals Sa and Ta are at ground potential if the connection between terminal Sa and pad Pa is normal, but in the event of a connection failure, they are pulled up by resistor 270a to the power supply potential. Similarly, terminals Sb and Tb are at ground potential if the connection between terminal Sb and pad Pb is normal, but in the event of a connection failure, they are pulled up by resistor 270b to the power supply potential. Similarly, terminals Sc and Tc are at ground potential if the connection between terminal Sc and pad Pc is normal, but in the event of a connection failure, they are pulled up by resistor 270c to the power supply potential. This results in a potential difference. Similarly, terminals Sd and Td will be at ground potential if terminal Sd is properly connected to pad Pd, but in the event of a connection failure, they will be pulled up by resistor 270d to the power supply potential.

[0063] In this embodiment, the control unit 210 functions as a determination unit that determines whether or not there is a connection defect between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400 based on the potentials of terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd of the semiconductor device 100, i.e., the potentials of terminals Ta, Tb, Tc, and Td of the integrated circuit chip 200. Specifically, the control unit 210 determines that the connection between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400 is normal if all potentials of terminals Ta, Tb, Tc, and Td are at a low level, and determines that there is a connection defect between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400 if at least one potential of terminals Ta, Tb, Tc, and Td is at a high level.

[0064] In this embodiment, the detection unit 250 outputs an interrupt signal INT to the control unit 210, which is the determination unit, when the potential of at least one of the terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, Sd, i.e., the potential of terminals Ta, Tb, Tc, Td of the integrated circuit chip 200, changes from a low level to a high level. When the interrupt signal INT is input to the control unit 210, it determines that there is a connection problem between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400. With this configuration, the control unit 210 does not need to determine whether there is a connection problem until the interrupt signal INT is input, so it can prioritize other processing.

[0065] The control unit 210 performs predetermined processing when it detects a connection problem. For example, if the control unit 210 determines that a connection problem has occurred, it may stop supplying power from the power supply circuit 190 to the motor driver 110 and the motor 61. For example, the recording device 13 has a transport motor 61 that transports the paper medium, and if the control unit 210 determines that a connection problem has occurred, it may stop supplying power from the power supply circuit 190 to the transport motor. If a connection problem occurs between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400, the recording device 13 may not be able to perform normal printing, so by stopping the power supply to the transport motor, paper will not be wasted.

[0066] Furthermore, for example, if the control unit 210 determines that a connection failure has occurred, it may send a control signal to the reset IC 192, which receives the control signal and resets the semiconductor device 100. When the semiconductor device 100 is reset, the detection unit 250 again outputs an interrupt signal INT to the control unit 210, and the control unit 210 detects the connection failure and sends a control signal to the reset IC 192 again. In other words, once the control unit 210 detects a connection failure, the semiconductor device 100 is reset repeatedly, which stops various functions of the semiconductor device 100 and reduces the risk of malfunction caused by connection failures.

[0067] The control unit 210 may determine whether there is a connection problem between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400 based on the logic levels of the potentials of terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd, immediately after the terminal Sv of the semiconductor device 100 reaches the power potential when the power supply circuit 190 starts supplying the power supply voltage VDD to the semiconductor device 100. In other words, the control unit 210 may determine whether there is a connection problem each time it starts up. In this way, the control unit 210 can quickly detect and address connection problems due to aging.

[0068] It is preferable that terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd are the four solder balls 310 located on the outermost periphery of the base substrate 300, which are prone to connection failure due to aging. Furthermore, it is preferable that terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd are the four solder balls 310 located at the four corners of the base substrate 300, which are the first to be prone to connection failure due to aging.

[0069] For example, as shown in Figure 4, terminal Sa is the solder ball 310a closest to the corner where sides 302 and 304 of the base substrate 300 intersect. Therefore, in the y-direction from side 303 toward side 302, none of the multiple solder balls 310, which are multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100, are located between terminal Sa and side 302. Also, in the -x-direction from side 305 toward side 304, none of the multiple solder balls 310, which are multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100, are located between terminal Sa and side 304.

[0070] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4, terminal Sb is the solder ball 310b closest to the corner where sides 302 and 305 of the base substrate 300 intersect. Therefore, in the x-direction from side 304 to side 305, none of the multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are located between terminal Sb and side 305. Also, in the y-direction from side 303 to side 302, none of the multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are located between terminal Sb and side 302.

[0071] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4, terminal Sc is the solder ball 310c closest to the corner where sides 303 and 304 of the base substrate 300 intersect. Therefore, in the -x direction from side 305 toward side 304, none of the multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are located between terminal Sc and side 304. Also, in the -y direction from side 302 toward side 303, none of the multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are located between terminal Sc and side 303.

[0072] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4, terminal Sd is the solder ball 310d closest to the corner where sides 303 and 305 of the base substrate 300 intersect. Therefore, in the -y direction from side 302 to side 303, none of the multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are located between terminal Sd and side 303. Also, in the x direction from side 304 to side 305, none of the multiple terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are located between terminal Sd and side 305.

[0073] However, if the semiconductor device 100 is not supplied with a power supply voltage VDD, the control unit 210 cannot determine a connection failure between terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, Sd and pads Pa, Pb, Pc, Pd. For this reason, it is preferable that terminal Sv, which shares the power supply voltage VDD, be located among the multiple solder balls 310 provided on the base substrate 300 in a location that is less likely to experience connection failures due to aging than terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, Sd. In other words, it is preferable that terminal Sv be located closer to the center than each of terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, Sd on the base substrate 300.

[0074] For example, in Figure 4, terminal Sa is located near side 302, so the shortest distance Ds1 between terminal Sa and side 302 is smaller than the shortest distance Ds2 between terminal Sa and side 303. Therefore, in relation to the arrangement of terminal Sa and terminal Sv, it is preferable that the shortest distance Dv1 between terminal Sv and side 302 is greater than the shortest distance Ds1 between terminal Sa and side 302, and the shortest distance Dv2 between terminal Sv and side 303 is greater than the shortest distance Ds1 between terminal Sa and side 302.

[0075] Furthermore, in Figure 4, since terminal Sa is located near side 304, the shortest distance Ds3 between terminal Sa and side 304 is smaller than the shortest distance Ds4 between terminal Sa and side 305. Therefore, in relation to the arrangement of terminal Sa and terminal Sv, it is preferable that the shortest distance Dv3 between terminal Sv and side 304 is greater than the shortest distance Ds3 between terminal Sa and side 304, and the shortest distance Dv4 between terminal Sv and side 305 is greater than the shortest distance Ds3 between terminal Sa and side 304.

[0076] The relationship between the arrangement of terminals Sb, Sc, and Sd and the arrangement of terminal Sv is the same as the relationship between the arrangement of terminal Sa and the arrangement of terminal Sv. In conclusion, it is preferable that terminal Sv be arranged in the area near the center of the base substrate 300, which is away from the four corners of the base substrate 300 and enclosed by the dashed line in Figure 4.

[0077] In Figures 4 and 5, the semiconductor device 100 is provided with four terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd for detecting connection failures with the printed circuit board 400, but it is sufficient if at least one of these terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd is provided.

[0078] 5. Layout of pads and wiring on the printed circuit board By mounting the integrated circuit chip 200 in a small package 330, the semiconductor device 100 can be made smaller and less expensive. However, in a small package 330, the spacing between solder balls 310 becomes narrower, and the spacing between pads 410 on the printed circuit board 400 also becomes narrower. As a result, it becomes difficult to extend the numerous wires connected to each pad 410 through the gaps between the numerous pads 410 to the outside of the mounting area of ​​the semiconductor device 100. Therefore, in this embodiment, the shape of some of the pads 410 on the printed circuit board 400 is modified to secure space for each wire to pass through.

[0079] Figure 6 is a plan view of a portion of the printed circuit board 400 viewed from the +z side. As shown in Figure 3, the printed circuit board 400 is provided with a plurality of pads 410, and as shown in Figure 6, the plurality of pads 410 include pads P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7, and P8. Each of the plurality of pads 410 is provided at a position corresponding to each of the plurality of solder balls 310, which are the plurality of terminals of the semiconductor device 100, and the semiconductor device 100 is mounted on the printed circuit board 400 by connecting each solder ball 310 to each pad 410. When the semiconductor device 100 is mounted on the printed circuit board 400, each of the plurality of pads 410 provided on the printed circuit board 400 is electrically connected to one of the terminals of the semiconductor device 100 and one of the terminals of the integrated circuit chip 200.

[0080] As shown in Figure 6, pads P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7, and P8 are connected to terminals S1a, S2a, S3a, S4a, S5a, S6a, S7a, and S8a of semiconductor device 100, respectively.

[0081] Pads P1, P2, and P7 are circular, while pads P3, P4, P5, P6, and P8 are oval. In the case of the oval, the diameter Ry in the y-direction is greater than the diameter R of the circle, and the diameter Rx in the x-direction is smaller than the diameter R of the circle. That is, pads P3, P4, P5, P6, and P8 are ovals that are elongated in the y-direction, and the area of ​​each pad P3, P4, P5, P6, and P8 is equivalent to the area of ​​each pad P1, P2, and P7. Therefore, the connection strength between each terminal S3a, S4a, S5a, S6a, S7a, and S8a and each pad P3, P4, P5, P6, and P8 can be made equivalent to the connection strength between each terminal S1a, S2a, and S7a and each pad P1, P2, and P7. In this embodiment, the shapes of pads P3, P4, P5, P6, and P8 are described as oval, but the shapes of pads P3, P4, P5, P6, and P8 may also be elliptical with similar areas.

[0082] In Figure 6, the edge 302 of the terminal mounting surface 301 is shown as a dashed line. That is, pads P5 and P6 are aligned along edge 302. In the x-direction from edge 304 to edge 305, pads P5 and P6 are adjacent. Also, in the y-direction from edge 303 to edge 302, none of the multiple pads 410 are placed between pad P5 and edge 302. Similarly, in the y-direction, none of the multiple pads 410 are placed between pad P6 and edge 302. That is, each of pads P5 and P6 is It is connected to the outermost solder ball 310 provided on the terminal mounting surface 301.

[0083] Furthermore, in the x-direction, pads P3 and P4 are adjacent, and pads P4 and P8 are adjacent. In addition, in the x-direction, pads P1 and P2 are adjacent, and pads P2 and P7 are adjacent.

[0084] Furthermore, in the y-direction, pads P1, P3, and P5 overlap at least partially. Also, in the y-direction, pads P2 and P4 overlap at least partially. Moreover, in the y-direction, pads P7, P8, and P6 overlap at least partially. That is, between pads P5 and P6, pad 410 is not positioned on the -y side of pad P4. Therefore, the shortest distance between pads P5 and P6 is longer than the shortest distance between pads P3 and P4 and the shortest distance between pads P4 and P8. Also, since pads P3, P4, and P8 are oval-shaped and pads P1, P2, and P7 are circular, the shortest distance between pads P3 and P4 and the shortest distance between pads P4 and P8 is longer than the shortest distance between pads P1 and P2 and the shortest distance between pads P2 and P7. Furthermore, as mentioned above, since pads P5 and P6 are oval-shaped extending in the y-direction, a wide space is provided between pads P5 and P6.

[0085] As shown in Figure 6, the printed circuit board 400 is provided with multiple wirings, including wirings W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, and W6. Wires W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, and W6 are connected to pads P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, and P6, respectively.

[0086] Wiring W5 extends in the y direction from pad P5. Wiring W1 extends in the y direction from pad P1, passing between pads P3 and P4. Wiring W3 extends in the y direction from pad P3, passing between pad P5 and wiring W1, and further passing between wiring W5 and wiring W1. Wiring W2 extends in the y direction from pad P2, passing between pads P4 and P5. Wiring W4 extends in the y direction from pad P4, passing between wiring W1 and wiring W2. Wiring W6 extends in the y direction from pad P6. In other words, wiring W1 passes between pads P3 and P4, wiring W2 passes between pads P4 and P8, wiring W1 and W3 passes between pads P4 and P5, and wiring W1, W2, W3, and W4 passes between pads P5 and P6.

[0087] There are certain constraints on the placement of pads P1-P8 and wiring W1-W2, and it is necessary to pass four wirings W1-W4 between pad P5 and pad P6 while satisfying these constraints. Figure 7 shows only a portion of pads P5, P6 and wiring W1-W6. The pitch of pads P1-P8 is determined by the pitch of the solder balls 310, and the pitch pt between pad P5 and pad P6 is, for example, 1 mm. On the other hand, due to manufacturing limitations, the wiring width w, wiring spacing s, pad-to-wiring spacing d, and pad radius r have minimum values. For example, the minimum value of wiring width w is 0.080 mm, the minimum value of wiring spacing s is 0.090 mm, the minimum value of pad-to-wiring spacing d is 0.100 mm, and the minimum value of pad radius r is 0.100 mm.

[0088] Here, since the minimum value of the wiring width w is smaller than the minimum value of the wiring interval s, the widths of wiring W1, wiring W2, wiring W3, and wiring W4 between pad P5 and pad P6 can be smaller than the spacing between wiring W3 and wiring W1, the spacing between wiring W1 and wiring W4, and the spacing between wiring W4 and wiring W2. Also, since the minimum value of the wiring interval s is smaller than the minimum value of the pad-to-wiring interval d, the spacing between wiring W3 and wiring W1, the spacing between wiring W1 and wiring W4, and the spacing between wiring W4 and wiring W2 can be smaller than the spacing between pad P5 and wiring W3 and the spacing between pad P6 and wiring W2.

[0089] For example, if the widths of wirings W1, W2, W3, and W4 are each set to the minimum wiring width w of 0.080 mm, the spacing between wiring W3 and wiring W1, the spacing between wiring W1 and wiring W4, and the spacing between wiring W4 and wiring W2 are each set to the minimum wiring spacing s of 0.090 mm, and the spacing between pad P5 and wiring W3, and the spacing between pad P6 and wiring W2 are each set to the minimum pad-to-wiring spacing d of 0.100 mm, then the distance DP56 between pad P5 and pad P6 will be 0.080 mm × 4 + 0.090 mm × 3 + 0.100 mm × 2 = 0.790 mm. Therefore, if the radii of pads P5 and P6 are set to the minimum value of pad radius r, which is 0.100 mm, the distance between the center of pad P5 and the center of pad P6 will be 0.790 mm + 0.100 mm × 2 = 0.990 mm, which is within the pitch pt of 1 mm, so it is possible to pass four wires W1 to W4 between pads P5 and P6. In this case, the difference between the pitch pt of 1 mm and the distance between the center of pad P5 and the center of pad P6, which is 0.990 mm, is 0.010 mm. For example, if the spacing between wires W3 and W1 is 0.093 mm, the spacing between wires W1 and W4 is 0.093 mm, and the spacing between wires W4 and W2 is 0.094 mm, the distance between the center of pad P5 and the center of pad P6 can be made to match the pitch pt of 1 mm.

[0090] Furthermore, it is necessary to run two wires W1 and W3 between pad P5 and pad P4 while satisfying the constraints. Figure 8 shows only a portion of pads P3, P4, P5 and wires W1 and W3.

[0091] As mentioned above, the minimum value of the wiring width w is smaller than the minimum value of the wiring interval s, so the width of wiring W3 and the width of wiring W1 can be smaller than the interval between wiring W3 and wiring W1. Also, since the minimum value of the wiring interval s is smaller than the minimum value of the pad-to-wiring interval d, the interval between wiring W3 and wiring W1 can be smaller than the interval between pad P5 and wiring W3 and the interval between pad P4 and wiring W1.

[0092] For example, if the widths of wires W1 and W3 are set to 0.080 mm, which is the minimum value of the wire width w, and the distance between wire W3 and wire W1 is set to 0.090 mm, which is the minimum value of the wire spacing s, and the distance between pad P5 and wire W3 and the distance between pad P4 and wire W1 are set to 0.100 mm, which is the minimum value of the pad-to-wire spacing d, then the distance DP54 between pad P5 and pad P4 is 0.080 mm × 2 + 0.090 mm × 1 + 0.100 mm × 2 = 0.45 mm. In reality, if pads P3, P4, and P5 are placed at a pitch of 1 mm pt, the distance DP54 between pad P5 and pad P4 is 0.4557 mm, so it is possible to pass two wires W1 and W3 between pad P4 and pad P5.

[0093] Furthermore, in the arrangement of pads P1-P8 and wiring W1-W2 shown in Figure 6, the shortest distances between pad P5 and wiring W3, pad P3 and wiring W1, pad P4 and wiring W1, pad P4 and wiring W2, pad P6 and wiring W2, pad P7 and wiring W2, and pad P8 and wiring W2 are greater than the shortest distances between wiring W3 and wiring W1, wiring W1 and wiring W4, and wiring W4 and wiring W2. For example, the shortest distances between pad P5 and wiring W3, pad P3 and wiring W1, pad P4 and wiring W1, pad P4 and wiring W2, pad P6 and wiring W2, pad P7 and wiring W2, and pad P8 and wiring W2 are 0.100 mm, which is the minimum value of the pad-wiring spacing d. On the other hand, the shortest distance between wiring W3 and wiring W1, the shortest distance between wiring W1 and wiring W4, and the shortest distance between wiring W4 and wiring W2 are 0.090 mm, which is the minimum value of the wiring spacing s. In this way, by increasing the shortest distance between each pad and each wiring, sufficient space is secured for the placement of the solder balls 310 connected to each pad.

[0095] 6. Effects As described above, according to the electronic device 1 of this embodiment, if at least one of the terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd provided on the base substrate 300 of the semiconductor device 100 detaches from the printed circuit board 400, the potential of at least one of the terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd changes, so the control unit 210 can detect a connection failure between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400 based on that potential. Furthermore, since the semiconductor device 100 has a built-in control unit 210, connection failure inspections can be performed at any time, so connection failures between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400 caused by aging can be detected quickly. Moreover, since the semiconductor device 100 has a built-in control unit 210, there is no need to mount a circuit on the printed circuit board 400 to detect connection failures between the semiconductor device 100 and the printed circuit board 400, thus reducing the cost of the printed circuit board 400.

[0096] Furthermore, according to the electronic device 1 of this embodiment, if warping occurs in the base substrate 300 of the semiconductor device 100 due to aging, terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd are provided at the four corners of the base substrate 300, which are the locations where the probability of connection failure is highest, thus improving the accuracy of detecting connection failures.

[0097] Furthermore, according to the electronic device 1 of this embodiment, in the base substrate 300 of the semiconductor device 100, terminal Sv connected to the power supply wiring is located in the central area, so there is a low possibility that terminal Sv will peel off before terminals Sa, Sb, Sc, and Sd. Therefore, it is less likely that the control unit 210 will be unable to detect a connection failure because the power supply voltage VDD is not supplied to the integrated circuit chip 200. In addition, because terminal Sv supplies the power supply voltage VDD from a position close to the center of the integrated circuit chip 200, the voltage drop of the power supply voltage VDD supplied to each part of the integrated circuit chip 200 is reduced, and the risk of the integrated circuit chip 200 malfunctioning is reduced. Moreover, in the printed circuit board 400, pad Pv connected to terminal Sv is located further inside than other pads, so pad Pv does not obstruct the pulling out of wiring from other pads.

[0098] Furthermore, in the electronic device 1 according to this embodiment, as shown in Figure 6, on the printed circuit board 400, pads P5 and P6 are positioned closest to the edge 302 of the base board 300, pads P3, P4 and P8 are positioned next closest to the edge 302, and pads P1, P2 and P7 are positioned next closest to the edge 302. In addition, on the printed circuit board 400, pads P1 to P8 are arranged in a grid pattern, with the space between pads P3 and P4 and between pads P4 and P8 being wider than the space between pads P1 and P2 and between pads P2 and P7, and the space between pads P5 and P6 being wider than the space between pads P3 and P4 and between pads P4 and P8. Therefore, according to the electronic device 1 according to this embodiment, on the printed circuit board 400, four wires W1 to W4 connected to pads P1 to P4 can be drawn out through the space between pads P3 and P4, between pads P4 and P8, and between pads P5 and P6.

[0099] Furthermore, according to the electronic device 1 of this embodiment, by making pads P5 and P6 oval-shaped, the distance between pads P5 and P6 can be increased, making it easier to pull out wiring W1 to W4 through the space between pads P5 and P6. Also, by making pads P3 and P4 oval-shaped, the distance between pads P3 and P4 can be increased, making it easier to pull out wiring W1 through the space between pads P3 and P4. Moreover, by making pad P8 oval-shaped, the distance between pads P4 and P8 can be increased, making it easier to pull out wiring W2 through the space between pads P4 and P8.

[0100] The present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and various modifications can be implemented within the scope of the gist of the present invention.

[0101] For example, in this embodiment, the package 330 of the semiconductor device 100 was described as a BGA (Ball Grid Array), but the package 330 may be a surface mount package other than BGA, such as a SiP (System-in-Package), LGA (Land Grid Array), or WPP (Wafer Process Packaging). For example, if the package 330 is an LGA, the terminals of the semiconductor device 100 are lands provided on the package 330, and the lands, which are the terminals of the semiconductor device 100, are connected to the pads 410 provided on the printed circuit board 400 by solder balls 310.

[0102] Although embodiments have been described above, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments and can be implemented in various forms without departing from its spirit. For example, the above embodiments can be combined as appropriate.

[0103] The present invention includes configurations substantially identical to those described in the embodiments, for example, configurations with the same function, method, and results, or configurations with the same purpose and effect. Furthermore, the present invention includes configurations in which non-essential parts of the configurations described in the embodiments are replaced. Furthermore, the present invention includes configurations that produce the same effects or achieve the same purpose as those described in the embodiments. Finally, the present invention includes configurations that add known technology to the configurations described in the embodiments.

[0104] The following conclusions can be drawn from the embodiments described above.

[0105] One aspect of electronic equipment is, Printed circuit board and A semiconductor device mounted on the aforementioned printed circuit board, Equipped with, The aforementioned semiconductor device is Integrated circuit chips, An integrated circuit substrate, which is a substrate on which the aforementioned integrated circuit chip is mounted, It has, The aforementioned integrated circuit board is provided with a plurality of terminals, The aforementioned printed circuit board is provided with a plurality of pads, Each of the aforementioned multiple terminals is connected to each of the aforementioned multiple pads, The aforementioned plurality of terminals include the first terminal, second terminal, third terminal, fourth terminal, fifth terminal, and sixth terminal, The aforementioned plurality of pads include a first pad, a second pad, a third pad, a fourth pad, a fifth pad, and a sixth pad. The first terminal is connected to the first pad, The second terminal is connected to the second pad, The third terminal is connected to the third pad, The fourth terminal is connected to the fourth pad, The fifth terminal is connected to the fifth pad, The sixth terminal is connected to the sixth pad, The aforementioned integrated circuit substrate has a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a third side, and a fourth side opposite the third side. The fifth pad and the sixth pad are arranged along the first side, In the first direction from the second edge toward the first edge, none of the plurality of pads are placed between the fifth pad and the first edge. In the first direction, none of the plurality of pads are positioned between the sixth pad and the first edge. In the first direction, the first pad, the third pad, and the fifth pad overlap in at least part, In the second direction from the third edge to the fourth edge, the fifth pad and the sixth pad are adjacent to each other. In the second direction, the third pad and the fourth pad are adjacent to each other. In the second direction, the first pad and the second pad are adjacent to each other. The shortest distance between the third pad and the fourth pad is longer than the shortest distance between the first pad and the second pad. The shortest distance between the fifth pad and the sixth pad is longer than the shortest distance between the third pad and the fourth pad.

[0106] In this electronic device, the fifth and sixth pads are positioned closest to the first edge of the integrated circuit board on the printed circuit board, the third and fourth pads are positioned next closest to the first edge, and the first and second pads are positioned next closest to the first edge. Furthermore, the first to sixth pads are arranged in a grid pattern on the printed circuit board, with a wider gap between the third and fourth pads than between the first and second pads, and a wider gap between the fifth and sixth pads than between the third and fourth pads. Therefore, with this electronic device, wiring can be routed through the gaps between the third and fourth pads and between the fifth and sixth pads to connect to the first to fourth pads, respectively.

[0107] In one embodiment of the electronic device, The aforementioned printed circuit board includes: The first wiring connected to the first pad, The second wiring connected to the aforementioned second pad, The third wire connected to the aforementioned third pad, The fourth wire connected to the aforementioned fourth pad, A system was established, The first, second, third, and fourth wirings may pass between the fifth pad and the sixth pad.

[0108] According to this electronic device, four wires can be routed from the printed circuit board through the space between the fifth and sixth pads, connecting to the first through fourth pads, respectively.

[0109] In one embodiment of the electronic device, The third pad, the fourth pad, the fifth pad, and the sixth pad may each be oval-shaped.

[0110] According to this electronic device, by making the 5th and 6th pads oval-shaped, the distance between the 5th and 6th pads can be increased, so that the wire passes through the space between the 5th and 6th pads. This makes it easier to pull out the wiring connected to the first through fourth pads. Also, by making the third and fourth pads oval-shaped, the distance between the third and fourth pads can be increased, making it easier to pull out the wiring connected to the first pad through the space between the third and fourth pads.

[0111] In one embodiment of the electronic device, The first pad and the second pad are each circular, The aforementioned oval shape is, The diameter in the first direction is greater than the diameter of the circle, The diameter in the second direction may be smaller than the diameter of the circle.
