Abstract:
1. A photoelectric conversion device comprising: a photodiode receiving light and an amplifier circuit for amplifying output of the photodiode, which are provided on a surface of a substrate having an insulating surface; a first insulating layer covering the photodiode and the amplifier circuit; a second insulating layer covering a top surface and side surfaces of the first insulating layer; first and second output terminals formed over the second insulating layer, the first output terminal being electrically connected to the photodiode and the second output terminal being electrically connected to the amplifier circuit; and first and second connection electrodes covering the whole of top surfaces of the first and second output terminals, respectively, wherein each of the first and second output terminals is a taper shape, and wherein each of the first and second connection electrodes continuously extends from a top surface of the second insulating layer to a portion of a side surface of the substrate.
