The present invention provides a semiconductor device exhibiting an
improved reliability. A semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor
chip having an electrode on a surface thereof and a mounting substrate,
and the electrode (aluminum electrode) of the semiconductor chip is
coupled to the mounting substrate through a bump (solder bump 104). A
plurality of diffusion barrier films (UBM 112) for preventing a diffusion
of a material composing the bump is provided between the electrode and
the bump, and the diffusion barrier film is formed to have a plurality of
divided portions via spacings therebetween.
