Abstract
Even in a case where a pad becomes smaller, solder connection strength is improved. A semiconductor device includes a pad, a diffusion layer, and a melting layer. The pad included by the semiconductor device includes a concave portion on a surface at which solder connection is to be performed. The diffusion layer included by the semiconductor device is disposed at the concave portion and constituted with a metal which remains on the surface of the pad while diffusing into solder upon the solder connection. The melting layer included by the semiconductor device is disposed adjacent to the diffusion layer and constituted with a metal which diffuses and melts into the solder upon the solder connection.
