Abstract
A semiconductor die includes: a semiconductor substrate; a first contact pad structure above the semiconductor substrate, the first contact pad structure including a metal contact pad configured for electrical contact and a metal layer adjoining an underside of the metal contact pad and jutting out beyond an edge of the metal contact pad; and a first optical detection marker in a periphery of the first contact pad structure and having a different contrast than the metal contact pad. The first optical detection marker includes a region of the metal layer that is adjacent to the edge of the metal contact pad and unobstructed by the metal contact pad so as to be optically visible in a plan view of the semiconductor die. A method of producing the semiconductor die is also described.
