Abstract

A semiconductor device 1 is provided with a semiconductor substrate 10 , an electrode 30 formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate 10 , and an insulation film 20 formed on the electrode 30 . The semiconductor device 1 includes a metal film 40 extending over a part of the surface of the electrode 30 not covered by the insulation film 20 and a surface of the insulation film 20 . The semiconductor device 1 includes solder 80 formed on a surface of the metal film 40 , a lead frame 50 joined to the metal film 40 by the solder 80 , and sealing resin 60 sealing the insulation film 20 , the metal film 40 , and the solder 80 . A convex 70 is formed on the surface of the insulation film 20 . The metal film 40 covers the convex 70 . The solder 80 covers the metal film 40 covering the convex 70.

Claims (14)

1. A semiconductor device comprising:

a substrate including a semiconductor substrate; an electrode formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate;

an insulation film formed on a part of a surface of the electrode;
