  • Patent number: 10141295
    Abstract: To improve the assemblability of a semiconductor device. When a memory chip is mounted over a logic chip, a recognition range including a recognition mark formed at a back surface of the logic chip is imaged and a shape of the recognition range is recognized, alignment of a plurality of bumps of the logic chip and a plurality of projection electrodes of the above-described memory chip is performed based on a result of the recognition, and the above-described memory chip is mounted over the logic chip. At this time, the shape of the recognition range is different from any portion of an array shape of the bumps, as a result, the recognition mark in the shape of the recognition range can be reliably recognized, and alignment of the bumps of the logic chip and the projection electrodes of the above-described memory chip is performed with high accuracy.

  • Patent number: 9230938
    Abstract: Provided is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device including a step of testing every one of through-electrodes. A second probe test is conducted to check an electrical coupling state between a plurality of copper post bumps formed on the side of the surface of a wafer and electrically coupled to a metal layer and a plurality of bumps formed on the side of the back surface of the wafer and electrically coupled to the metal layer (also another metal layer) via a plurality of through-electrodes by probing to each of the bumps on the side of the back surface while short-circuiting between the copper post bumps (electrodes). By this test, conduction between the bumps (electrodes) on the back surface side is checked.
