Abstract

PURPOSE:To solve problems caused by high aspect ratio, and eliminate the generation of cracks at the time of scribe treatment, by leaving an interlayer insulating film on the grid line part of a semiconductor substrate, and simultaneously eliminating said film in the patterning process of a passivation film. CONSTITUTION:At the time of forming a multilayer wiring, an interlayer insulating film 5 is left on the grid line part of a semiconductor substrate 1. A passivation film 7 is formed after multilayer wiring is formed. When said passivation film 7 is patterned, the interlayer insulating film is simultaneously eliminated from the part on the grid line part, together with the passivation film 7. Hence a deep groove is not generated on the grid line part until the patterning process of the passivation film 7 (final process). Thereby problems in the multilayer wiring forming process caused by the high aspect ratio on the grid line part can be solved, so that the generation of cracks at the time of scribe treatment can be eliminated.
