Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of: preparing a semiconductor substrate having a main surface; forming a plurality of electrode pads on said main surface of said semiconductor substrate; forming a protection film exposing said plurality of electrode pads and covering other regions; and evaluating electrical characteristics by brining a contact probe in contact with exposed said electrode pads, in said step of evaluating electrical characteristics, said electrical characteristics being evaluated by bringing a plurality of contact probes in contact with one electrode pad of said plurality of electrode pads, each of said plurality of contact probes contacting said one electrode pad through respective openings in said protection film, and in said step of forming a protection film, a plurality of openings being formed in said protection film in such a manner that a portion where each of at least one contact probe and other contact probes of said plurality of contact probes is in contact with said one electrode pad is exposed.
