Abstract:
Provided is a semiconductor wafer with a scribe line region and a plurality of element forming regions partitioned by the scribe line region, the semiconductor wafer including: conductive patterns formed in the scribe line region; and an island-shaped passivation film formed above at least a conductive pattern, which is or may be exposed to a side surface of a semiconductor chip obtained by dicing the semiconductor wafer along the scribe line region, among the conductive patterns, so that the island-shaped passivation film is opposed to the conductive pattern.

Abstract:
In a semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor chip, a heat radiation plate mounting the semiconductor chip thereon and having a plurality of rounded corner portions of a first radius, a ceramic substrate for mounting the heat radiation plate, and a metallize pattern formed onto the ceramic substrate for soldering the heat radiation plate onto the ceramic substrate, the metallize pattern has a plurality of rounded corner portions of a second radius. The metallize pattern is larger than the heat radiation plate in area. The first radius is greater than the second radius.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a bonding-structure for electrically and mechanically bonding a solder ball to the electrode pad. The bonding-structure includes flexible arms that are connected to a common supporting layer that allows a relative displacement of the solder ball in relation to the semiconductor chip. The arms extending in one direction are supported by one supporting layer and the arms extending in an opposite direction are supported by another supporting layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device allowing a finer terminal pitch, a low profile, and easy product inspection is disclosed. A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip and a film substrate having the semiconductor chip connected thereon. The film substrate includes an insulating film having a plurality of openings formed in a desired pattern and a wiring layer formed in a chip-connecting surface of the insulating film. Solder balls are each directly bonded to the external connection pads through the openings. The wiring layer includes substrate pads each being connected to the chip pads of the semiconductor chip, and external connection pads each being electrically connected to these substrate pads. The external connection pads are each formed over the openings so that the openings are covered with the external connection pads on the chip-connecting surface of the insulating film, respectively.
