Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device in a packaged form including a semiconductor, comprising: a semiconductor substrate with an active component and pads disposed having a top surface above a surface of the semiconductor substrate and connected to the active component; a plurality of first interconnection conductors disposed over said semiconductor substrate and individually contacting the top surface of corresponding said pads, wherein there is only a single thin protective layer between portions of the first interconnection conductors and the top surface of the semiconductor substrate adjacent to the pads; a first insulating layer disposed over said semiconductor substrate in covering relation to said first interconnection conductors and having openings each reaching a corresponding portion of said first interconnection conductors; and a plurality of second interconnection members disposed in said opening and on said first insulating layer and connected to said first interconnection, and further wherein the first interconnection conductors extend horizontally away from the pads and the second interconnection extends horizontally away from a corresponding opening in the first insulating layer.
