Abstract: Some aspects of the invention include a trench gate structure including a p base layer, an n+ emitter region, a trench, a gate oxide film, and a doped polysilicon gate electrode is provided in an active region. A p-type extension region formed by extending the p base layer to an edge termination structure region can be provided in the circumference of a plurality of trenches. One or more annular outer trenches which are formed at the same time as the plurality of trenches are provided in the p-type extension region. The annular outer trenches can surround all of the trenches. A second gap between the annular outer trench and the outermost trench or between adjacent annular outer trenches is less than a first gap between adjacent trenches.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, the semiconductor device including an integrated circuit having plural connection terminals arranged on a predetermined local region of the integrated circuit, plural metal bumps, and a wiring layer connected to at least a portion of the connection terminals via the plural metal bumps, the method includes the steps of a) measuring an impedance value of the predetermined local region of the integrated circuit, b) determining whether the measured impedance value matches a predetermined impedance value, c) determining positions of the plural metal bumps in accordance with the determination result of step b), d) forming the plural metal bumps on the positions determined in step c), and e) forming the wiring layer on the plural metal bumps.
