ABSTRACT:
A method for dividing a semiconductor wafer which is covered by an opaque resin in a dicing process includes forming marks on the semiconductor wafer, wherein the marks are distinguished from electrodes which are formed on the semiconductor wafer. According to the method, in a dicing process, separating semiconductor chips from the semiconductor wafer can be precisely achieved.
