The invention is directed to an improvement of reliability in a chip-size
package type semiconductor device and a manufacturing method thereof. A
semiconductor substrate formed with a pad electrode is prepared, and a
first protection layer formed of epoxy resin is formed on a front surface
of the semiconductor substrate. Then, a via hole is formed from a back
surface of the semiconductor substrate to the pad electrode. A wiring
layer is then formed from the via hole of the semiconductor substrate,
being electrically connected with the pad electrode through the via hole.
Then, a second protection layer and a conductive terminal are formed, and
the semiconductor substrate is separated into individual semiconductor
dies by dicing.
