Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve reliability of connections in a LSI chip, by disposing pads for electrical inspection inside peripheral parts of four sides on a surface of the LSI chip and then disposing pads for connection of an external lead outside there and then connecting these pads electrically to each other. CONSTITUTION:Bonding pads 2 which are gold plated on a semiconductor substrate 5 of silicon or the like, pads 3 for electrical inspection, and wirings 4 are formed on a LSI chip. In succession, protection resin 6 such as polyimide resin is used to coat a region exclusive of both the pads 2, 3 and the wirings 4. Since the pads 3 for electrical inspection of the LSI chip 1 on the wafer is thus formed independently of the pads 2 for connecting the external leads, mechanical stresses such as dents and scars which are caused by needle pressure of an inspection needle during the electrical inspection in the use of the pads 3 have no effect on the bonding pads 2.
