A printed circuit board (PCB) includes an insulating layer with an upper surface and a lower surface opposite to the upper surface; a first conductive pattern on the upper surface of the insulating layer; a second conductive pattern on the lower surface of the insulating layer; an aluminum pattern that covers at least a portion of an upper surface of the first conductive pattern; and a first passivation layer that covers at least a portion of sides of the first conductive pattern and that prevents diffusion into the first conductive pattern.

Embodiments of the present invention describe a semiconductor package having an embedded die. The semiconductor package comprises a coreless substrate that contains the embedded die. The semiconductor package provides die stacking or package stacking capabilities. Furthermore, embodiments of the present invention describe a method of fabricating the semiconductor package that minimizes assembly costs.

Semiconductor device A1 of the present disclosure includes: semiconductor element 10 (semiconductor elements 10A and 10B) having element obverse face and element reverse face facing toward opposite sides in z direction; support substrate 20 supporting semiconductor element 10; conductive block 60 (first block 61 and second block 62) bonded to element obverse face via first conductive bonding material (block bonding materials 610 and 620); and metal member (lead member 40 and input terminal 32) electrically connected to semiconductor element 10 via conductive block 60. Conductive block 60 has a thermal expansion coefficient smaller than that of metal member. Conductive block 60 and metal member are bonded to each other by a weld portion (weld portions M4 and M2) at which a portion of conductive block 60 and a portion of metal member are welded to each other. Thus, the thermal cycle resistance can be improved.
