Patent ID: 7808064

Claim:
A semiconductor package comprising: an imaging element formed on a first main surface of a semiconductor substrate; an external terminal electrode formed on a second main surface opposite to the first main surface of the semiconductor substrate; a through-hole electrode which is formed in a through hole formed in the semiconductor substrate, and electrically connects the imaging element on the first main surface and the external terminal electrode on the second main surface; a first electrode pad formed on the through-hole electrode in the first main surface of the semiconductor substrate; an interlayer insulating film formed on the first electrode pad and on the first main surface of the semiconductor substrate; a second electrode pad formed on the interlayer insulating film; a passivation film formed on the second electrode pad and the interlayer insulating film, and having an opening which exposes a portion of the second electrode pad; and a contact plug formed between the first electrode pad and the second electrode pad in a region which does not overlap the opening when viewed in a direction perpendicular to a surface of the semiconductor substrate.
