Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent imperfect bonding and the decrease of bonding strength by arranging a high melting point metal layer which is hardly scratched by a measuring terminal, under an AL pad. CONSTITUTION:On a single crystal substrate 11, a metal Mo layer 13 and an AL layer 14 are formed via an insulating film 12, and a necessary part is left while the other part is eliminated by photoetching. After a passivation film 15 is formed thereon, the insulating film on a pad part is eliminated and a hole is bored in the pad. In the case where the pin pressure of a measuring terminal is large, the AL layer 14 of the pad part is largely gouged out, but the Mo layer 13 of high melting point metal remains, and no hindrance is caused in bonding. Thereby, imperfect bonding and the decrease of bonding strength can be prevented.

FIG. 3(b) shows the erosion caused by the measurement terminal of the AL pad in the pad portion after measuring the electrical characteristics of the semiconductor integrated circuit device. If the stylus pressure of the measurement terminal is strong, the AL of the pad portion will be greatly eroded as shown in FIG. 3(b).After that, the good chip is diced, cracked, and sent for mounting. During wire bonding during mounting, if the AL of the pad part has a large erodibility, the bonding ball will be difficult to attach and the bonding strength will be weak.
