Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, which includes a through hole that extends through the semiconductor substrate. An insulative layer includes a first surface, an opposite second surface covering the semiconductor substrate, and an opening aligned with the through hole. An insulative film covers an inner wall surface of the semiconductor substrate and the opening. A through electrode is formed in the through hole and the opening inward from the insulative film. The through electrode includes a first end surface that forms a pad exposed from the first surface of the insulative layer. The first end surface of the through electrode is flush with the first surface of the insulative layer.
