Patent ID: 10600899

Abstract:
Provided is a low cost semiconductor device in which occurrence of chipping and a crack during dicing is suppressed. A nitride layer (silicon nitride layer) 23 is formed on an oxide layer 22. In FIG. 1, a thick organic layer 24 is formed as a top layer. The semiconductor device 1 is characterized by its structure on a side of its end portion. In FIG. 1, the end portion E of the semiconductor device 1 is formed by cutting with a blade in the vertical direction during dicing. An edge E1 of both the oxide layer 22 and the nitride layer is located apart from an edge of a semiconductor substrate 10. An edge E2 of the organic layer 24 on the nitride layer 23 is located inside the edge E1 of the nitride layer 23 (on a side more distant from the edge E).
