Patent ID: 8338288

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a base member having a lead; and (b) disposing a semiconductor chip over the base member, the semiconductor chip including a first main surface, a bonding pad formed over the first main surface, an insulating film formed over the first main surface such that a peripheral portion of the bonding pad is covered with the insulating film, an electrode layer electrically connected with a coupling portion of the bonding pad exposed from an opening formed in the insulating film, and formed over the insulating film, and a second main surface opposite to the first main surface, and electrically connecting the bonding pad with the lead via a conductive member and the electrode layer, wherein in a plan view, a second distance between a first end portion of the electrode layer and a first end portion of the bonding pad is larger than a first distance between the first end portion of the electrode layer and a first end portion of the opening formed in the insulating film.
