Abstract

A crack-stopping structure includes a semiconductor wafer comprising a plurality of dies defined by a plurality of scribe line regions, a plurality of metal patterns formed in the scribe line regions, and a plurality of groups of through silicon holes (TSHs) formed in the scribe line regions. The wafer further includes a front side and a back side, and the TSHs respectively include at least a bottom opening formed in the bottom side of the wafer. The groups of TSHs are formed between the metal patterns and the dies.
