## Abstract

In a wired substrate, heat dissipation performance is improved while an increase in an amount of metal is inhibited. The substrate includes a transmission line, an insulating material, and a heat storage material. In the substrate provided with the transmission line, the insulating material and the heat storage material, the transmission line transmits a predetermined electrical signal from a semiconductor chip. The transmission line for transmitting the predetermined electrical signal from the semiconductor chip is wired in the insulating material. The heat storage material has a higher thermal conductivity than the insulating material to which the transmission line is wired and accumulates latent heat accompanying phase transition that occurs within an operating temperature range of the semiconductor chip.
