Abstract
A semiconductor wafer and a semiconductor device with more chips are obtained. The semiconductor wafer includes a plurality of dicing lines (DXa, DXb, DYa, DYb) extending in the lateral direction (X) and in the longitudinal direction (Y) with an interval (L,) therebetween, and a semiconductor element forming region (CR,) with a semiconductor element, sectioned by the dicing lines (DXa, DXb, DYa, DYb). The dicing lines both in the lateral direction (X) and in the longitudinal direction (Y) have alternate widths (La, Lb), one of which (Lb) is larger than the other (La).
