In a semiconductor device (SP1) according to an embodiment, a solder resist film (first insulating layer, SR1) which is in contact with the base material layer, and a resin body (second insulating layer, 4) which is in contact with the solder resist film and the semiconductor chip, are laminated in between the base material layer (2CR) of a wiring substrate 2 and a semiconductor chip (3). In addition, a linear expansion coefficient of the solder resist film is equal to or larger than a linear expansion coefficient of the base material layer, and the linear expansion coefficient of the solder resist film is equal to or smaller than a linear expansion coefficient of the resin body. Also, the linear expansion coefficient of the base material layer is smaller than the linear expansion coefficient of the resin body. According to the above-described configuration, damage of the semiconductor device caused by a temperature cyclic load can be suppressed, and thereby reliability can be improved.
