Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device, comprising a low dielectric constant film having a relative dielectric constant less than 3.5, and a seal ring which is a moisture blocking wall forming a closed loop in a plan view, wherein said seal ring includes a seal ring protrusion portion in inward protruding form in a vicinity of a corner of a chip, wherein a passivation film covers said low dielectric constant film and the seal ring, and has a opening penetrating the passivation film, the opening formed in a vicinity of two chip end surfaces in a plan view, said two chip end surfaces forming the corner of the chip, wherein a sacrifice pattern is provided outside of said seal ring protrusion portion of the seal ring from a center of a chip, wherein the sacrifice pattern is a structure in wall-form for preventing progress of a crack, wherein said passivation film is made of a SiN, wherein said seal ring includes a Cu seal ring and Al seal ring formed above said Cu seal ring and said sacrifice pattern includes a Cu sacrifice pattern, and wherein an Al sacrifice pattern is not formed above said sacrifice pattern.
