A semiconductor device including a semiconductor substrate including a chip region and an edge region around the chip region; a lower dielectric layer and an upper dielectric layer on the semiconductor substrate; a redistribution chip pad that penetrates the upper dielectric layer on the chip region and is connected a chip pad; a process monitoring structure on the edge region; and dummy elements in the edge region and having an upper surface lower than an upper surface of the upper dielectric layer.

Semiconductor device

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate including a chip region and an edge region around the chip region, a lower insulating layer on the semiconductor substrate, a chip pad on the lower insulating layer on the chip region, an upper insulating layer provided on the lower insulating layer to cover the chip pad, the upper and different insulating layers including different materials, and a redistribution chip pad on the chip region and connected to the chip pad. The upper insulating layer includes a first portion on the chip region having a first thickness, a second portion on the edge region having a second thickness, and a third portion on the edge region, the third portion extending from the second portion, spaced from the first portion, and having a decreasing thickness away from the second portion. The second thickness is smaller than the first thickness.
