Patent ID: 8183094

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising: preparing a semiconductor chip having a main surface; forming a conductive portion made from a material having a conductivity and a malleability on said main surface; arranging said semiconductor chip within a die after the step of forming said conductive portion, said die having an inner surface facing said main surface with a spacing therebetween, and a protruding portion protruding from said inner surface to press said conductive portion, thereby forming a recess in said conductive portion; forming a sealing resin portion having a surface and an opening, after the step of arranging said semiconductor chip within said die, by filling said die with a resin, curing the resin, and then removing said die, said surface facing said main surface, said opening passing through between said conductive portion and said surface; inserting an electrode through said opening into said recess of said conductive portion after the step of forming said sealing resin portion; and thereafter joining said electrode to said conductive portion.
