Abstract
Provided is a semiconductor device with improved reliability that achieves the reduction in size. A semiconductor wafer is provided that has a first insulating member with an opening that exposes from which an upper surface of an electrode pad. Subsequently, after forming a second insulating member over a main surface of the semiconductor wafer, another opening is formed to expose the upper surface of the electrode pad. Then, a probe needle is brought into contact with the electrode pad, to write data in a memory circuit at the main surface of the semiconductor wafer. After covering the upper surface of the electrode pad with a conductive cover film, a relocation wiring is formed. In the Y direction, the width of the relocation wiring positioned directly above the electrode pad is equal to or smaller than the width of the opening formed in the first insulating member.
