Provided is a semiconductor device having a pad on a semiconductor chip, a first passivation film formed over the semiconductor chip and having an opening portion on the pad of a probe region and a coupling region, a second passivation film formed over the pad and the first passivation film and having an opening portion on the pad of the coupling region, and a rewiring layer formed over the coupling region and the second passivation film and electrically coupled to the pad. The pad of the probe region placed on the periphery side of the semiconductor chip relative to the coupling region has a probe mark and the rewiring layer extends from the coupling region to the center side of the semiconductor chip. The present invention provides a technology capable of achieving size reduction, particularly pitch narrowing, of a semiconductor device.

Method of manufacturing semiconductor device

A technique is provided that can prevent cracking of a protective film in the uppermost layer of a semiconductor device and improve the reliability of the semiconductor device. Bonding pads formed over a principal surface of a semiconductor chip are in a rectangular shape, and an opening is formed in a protective film over each bonding pad in such a manner that an overlapping width of the protective film in a wire bonding region of each bonding pad becomes wider than an overlapping width of the protective film in a probe region of each bonding pad.

Semiconductor device

To improve the assemblability of a semiconductor device. When a memory chip is mounted over a logic chip, a recognition range including a recognition mark formed at a back surface of the logic chip is imaged and a shape of the recognition range is recognized, alignment of a plurality of bumps of the logic chip and a plurality of projection electrodes of the above-described memory chip is performed based on a result of the recognition, and the above-described memory chip is mounted over the logic chip. At this time, the shape of the recognition range is different from any portion of an array shape of the bumps, as a result, the recognition mark in the shape of the recognition range can be reliably recognized, and alignment of the bumps of the logic chip and the projection electrodes of the above-described memory chip is performed with high accuracy.

Provided is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including a step of testing every one of through-electrodes. A second probe test is conducted to check an electrical coupling state between a plurality of copper post bumps formed on the side of the surface of a wafer and electrically coupled to a metal layer and a plurality of bumps formed on the side of the back surface of the wafer and electrically coupled to the metal layer (also another metal layer) via a plurality of through-electrodes by probing to each of the bumps on the side of the back surface while short-circuiting between the copper post bumps (electrodes). By this test, conduction between the bumps (electrodes) on the back surface side is checked.
