Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a semiconductor device having improved reliability. Over a semiconductor substrate, a first coil is formed via a first insulating film. A second insulating film is formed so as to cover the first insulating film and the first coil. Over the second insulating film, a pad is formed. Over the second insulating film, a multi-layer film having an opening exposing a part of the pad is formed. Over the multi-layer insulating film, a second coil is formed. The second coil is placed over the first coil. The second and first coils are magnetically coupled to each other. The multi-layer film includes a silicon dioxide film, a silicon nitride film over the silicon dioxide film, and a resin film over the silicon nitride film.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising steps of: (a) forming a first insulating film over a semiconductor substrate; (b) forming a first coil over the first insulating film; (c) forming a second insulating film over the first insulating film such that the second insulating film covers the first coil; (d) forming a first pad over the second insulating film and at a position not overlapping the first coil in plan view, while forming…
