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 E 1  of both the oxide layer  22  and the nitride layer is located apart from an edge of a semiconductor substrate  10 . An edge E 2  of the organic layer  24  on the nitride layer  23  is located inside the edge E 1  of the nitride layer  23  (on a side more distant from the edge E).

Claim (Index 3):
The semiconductor device according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein the silicon nitride layer is formed such that, in a plan view, the edge of the silicon nitride layer is located inside an edge of the semiconductor substrate, and wherein a distance between the edge of the silicon nitride layer and the edge of the semiconductor substrate, in a plan view, is set to be no smaller than 50 \u03bcm and no larger than 200 \u03bcm.
