The invention is directed to a semiconductor device having a penetrating electrode and a manufacturing method thereof in which reliability and a yield of the semiconductor device are enhanced. A refractory metal layer is formed on a pad electrode formed on a semiconductor substrate with a first insulation film therebetween. Next, a passivation layer is formed on a front surface of the semiconductor substrate including on the pad electrode and on the refractory metal layer, and a supporting body is further formed with a resin layer therebetween. Next the semiconductor substrate is etched to form a via hole from a back surface of the semiconductor substrate to the pad electrode. Next, a penetrating electrode electrically connected with the pad electrode exposed at a bottom of the via hole and a wiring layer 21 are formed with a second insulation film therebetween. Furthermore, a solder resist layer and a conductive terminal are formed. Finally, the semiconductor substrate is cut and separated into semiconductor dies by dicing.
