Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, in which a first pattern of conductors (20), an isolating layer (21) and a second pattern of conductors (22) are successively provided on a surface (2) of a semiconductor body (1) adjoined by a number of isolation regions (4, 10) and a number of semiconductor regions (3). Mutual contacts are established between the two patterns (20, 22) and these contacts are located both above a semiconductor region (3) and above an adjoining isolation region (4, 10) by forming conductive pillars (44) in the first pattern (20), exposing a tip (51) of the pillars (44) after an isolating layer (50) has been provided and providing the second pattern (22) over the tip (51) of the pillars (44). Thus, a large amount is saved on the surface (2).
