In the conventional solid-state image pickup device 50, the electrode pad 53 of the semiconductor chip 51 and the inner lead 55 of the lead frame are connected by the following method.
First, in the first step, the bonding wire 54 is led out to the tip of the bonding tool, and one end of the bonding wire 54 is bonded to the electrode pad 53 of the semiconductor chip 51. Next, in the second step, the tip of the bonding tool is vertically raised to a predetermined height while paying out the bonding wire 54 from the bonding tool. Then, in the third step, the second step
While the bonding wire 54 is being paid out from the bonding tool in the same manner as the step of 1, the bonding tool is moved in a substantially arc shape.

By the way, in order to miniaturize this type of solid-state image pickup device, the inner lead 55 should be brought closer to the die pad 52, in other words, the distance L between the die pad 52 and the inner lead 55 should be as small as possible. It is said that shortening is the most effective. However, when the normal wire bonding method, that is, the wire bonding with the semiconductor chip 51 side as the first bond and the inner lead 55 side as the second bond, is performed in a state where the distance L between the die pad 52 and the inner lead 55 is actually reduced. , The edge 51a of the semiconductor chip 51 and the bonding wire 54
No clearance can be obtained between the two, and an electrical short circuit is caused by the contact between the two.

Assuming that the wire height H is as shown in FIG.
Even if the above-mentioned short circuit can be avoided by raising the value of the effective pixel portion 5 of the semiconductor chip 51, the light irradiated to the rising portion of the bonding wire 54 (indicated by a chain double-dashed line in the figure) is effective.

Moreover, the height of the package is increased.

Further, a large step is provided between the die pad 52 and the inner lead 55 by depressing the lead frame, and the edge 51a and the bonding wire 5 are formed.
Even if an attempt is made to secure a clearance with the lead frame 4, the step difference that can be secured due to the bending process of the lead frame is reduced by the amount by which the distance L between the die pad 52 and the inner lead 55 is shortened, which solves the above problem. There was a limit to it.

As described above, according to the present invention,
Even when the die pad and the inner lead are in close proximity to each other, the electrode pad of the semiconductor chip and the inner lead can be connected while ensuring a clearance between the edge of the semiconductor chip and the bonding wire. As a result, the plane size of the solid-state image pickup device can be significantly reduced, which is extremely effective in reducing the size of the solid-state image pickup device. Further, in the present invention, since the rising portion of the bonding wire on the electrode pad side of the semiconductor chip is formed in a gentle arc shape, the light irradiated to the rising portion is directed in a direction different from the effective pixel portion of the semiconductor chip. It is reflected toward the wire, which prevents gold wire flare.
