In semiconductor modules having a plurality of semiconductor devices mounted on a multilayer printed circuit boards as the processing speed increases, a short circuit current flowing through CMOS devices in the semiconductor devices during operation can cause noise because of ground inductance or power supply inductance. This noise can result in erroneous operations. To solve this problem, the power supply layer or grand layer that is connected to either the power supply terminal Vcc or the ground terminal Gnd of each semiconductor memory, which is located farther from the connection terminals, is arranged closer to the semiconductor memories with this arrangement, the short circuit current flowing through the semiconductor memories is more strongly magnetically coupled with the power supply layer or ground layer arranged close to them. Thus, it is possible to reduce the effective inductance. This, in turn, reduces noise, making it possible to provide a semiconductor module with an increased processing speed.

There is a trend to increase that area of a device requiring a memory of large capacity, which is occupied by a semiconductor memory. This trend obstructs reduction of the size of the device. The present invention contemplates to provide a memory which can have a high integration, a high density and a large capacity while minimizing the mounting area. In order to achieve this memory, the TAB (Tape Automated Bonding) of the prior art is mounted on an electrically conductive connector, and a plurality of structures composed of the TAB and the connector are stacked. Moreover, the connector mounting the TAB thereon is constructed such that the independent terminals of the stacked TABs may not be shorted.

A memory module includes a plurality of data connectors provided along a long side of a module substrate, a plurality of memory chips and a plurality of data register buffers mounted on the module substrate, a data line that connects the data connectors and the data register buffers, and data lines that connect the data register buffers and the memory chips. Each of the data register buffers and a plurality of data connectors and a plurality of memory chips corresponding to the data register buffer are arranged side by side in a direction of a short side of the module substrate. According to the present invention, because each line length of the data lines is considerably shortened, it is possible to realize a considerably high data transfer rate.

A maximum value of the number of mounted memory devices is assumed, and a value of an external delay replica is fixed and set. A desired frequency band is divided into a plurality of sub-frequency bands, and delay times of an output buffer and an internal delay replica are switched and used every sub-frequency band, thereby setting an actual maximum value and an actual minimum value to the internal delay replica. A selecting pin can select the delay time in the internal delay replica. Thus, it is possible to sufficiently ensure a set-up time and a hold time of an internal clock signal generated by a delay locked loop circuit in the latch operation in a register within a desired frequency band and with a permittable number of memory devices, irrespective of the frequency level and the number of mounted memory devices.

First and second pre-processing flip-flops latch a command/address signal inputted to a register by a clock having a frequency of ½ of an external clock signal and an inverse clock thereof. Thus, the command/address signal is decomprossed to a set of signals which temporarily has two times. For example, one of the set of signals has only data contents of an odd-th command/address signal, and the other has only data contents of an even-th command/address signal. Since the set of signals has twice periods of the command/address signal, first and second post-processing flip-flop can latch signals in accordance with an internal clock signal generated by a delay locked loop circuit in a state in which a set-up time and a hold time are sufficiently assured.

To realize low-profile electronic apparatus (a memory module and a memory card) of a large storage size by mounting tape carrier packages (TCPs) with a memory chip encapsulated onto a wiring board in high density. To be more specific, a TCP is composed of an insulating tape, leads formed on one side thereof, a potting resin with a semiconductor chip encapsulated, and a pair of support leads arranged on two opposite short sides. The pair of support leads function to hold the TCP at a constant tilt angle relative to the mounting surface of the wiring board. By varying the length vertical to the mounting surface, the TCP can be mounted to a desired tilt angle.
