Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device, comprising: a first area, and a second area positioned adjacent to an outside of the first area; a semiconductor substrate having a main surface and side surfaces and disposed in such a manner that the main surface is positioned in the first area and each of the side surfaces is positioned at a boundary between the first area and the second area; a plurality of pads formed over the main surface of the semiconductor substrate; an insulating film formed over the main surface of the semiconductor substrate with the pads being exposed therefrom; a plurality of external connecting terminals formed over the insulating film, which are respectively electrically connected to the pads; a first sealing resin portion formed over the main surface of the semiconductor substrate so as to cover the pads and the insulating film having a main surface and outermost side surfaces, said first sealing resin portion being formed in such a manner that the external connecting terminals are exposed from the main surface of the first sealing resin portion and each of the outermost side surfaces of the first sealing resin portion is positioned at the boundary; and a second sealing resin portion positioned in the second area and formed so as to cover the side surfaces of the semiconductor substrate and to completely cover the outermost side surfaces of the first sealing resin portion and the insulating film, said second sealing resin portion being different in composition from the first sealing resin portion.
