    摘要: A method of securing a bond pad in to a semiconductor chip having an upper top metal surface which includes one or more holes, the method comprising the steps of forming a passivation layer over the upper metal surface, which passivation layer has holes therein substantially corresponding to the or each hole in the upper metal layer and being substantially the same size or smaller than the holes in the upper metal layer; forming the bond pad over the passivation layer; characterised in that the step of forming the bond pad comprises introducing some of the material from the bond pad into the holes in the passivation layer and upper metal layer when forming the bond pad, securing the bond pad to the passivation layer by allowing said material to flow under the surface thereof and attach thereto without attaching to the upper metal layer to thereby form a securing means.

    摘要: A semiconductor wafer includes a plurality of chip areas, a scribe line area, a bonding pad, a probing pad, and a pad connection wiring. The plurality of chip areas are configured to be arranged in a matrix form. The scribe line area is configured to separate the plurality of chip areas from each other. The bonding pad is configured to be connected with an external terminal. The probing pad is configured to be contacted with a probe wire. The pad connection wiring is configured to electrically connect the bonding pad to the probing pad. The bonding pad and the probing pad are located at a predetermined distance from each other in each of the plurality of chip areas. The pad connection wiring has a portion located in the scribe line area.

    摘要: A semiconductor device has a silicon substrate, an external connection terminal disposed on the silicon substrate, an internal circuit region disposed on the silicon substrate, an NMOS transistor for electrostatic discharge protection provided between the external connection terminal and the internal circuit region, and a wiring connecting together the external connection terminal and the NMOS transistor and connecting together the NMOS transistor and the internal circuit region. The NMOS transistor has a drain region and a gate electrode whose potential is fixed to a ground potential. The external connection terminal is smaller than the drain region and is formed above the drain region.
