Abstract
A semiconductor device capable of improving the efficiency of dispersing heat via a dummy pad. The semiconductor device may be included in a semiconductor package, stack module, card, or system. Also disclosed is a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device. In the semiconductor device, a semiconductor substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and at least one conductive pad is arranged on a predetermined region of the first surface. At least one dummy pad is arranged on the first or second surface, and is not electrically coupled to the at least one conductive pad. The dummy pad or pads may be used to disperse heat. Accordingly, it is possible to increase the efficiency of dispersing heat of a semiconductor device, thereby improving the yield of semiconductor devices.
