ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having front and back surfaces and a heat dissipating metal layer on the back surface. The semiconductor substrate includes side surfaces covering a metal layer. The side surfaces are outwardly tapered and include a pair of upper side surfaces and lower side surfaces. A protrusion bearing semiconductor elements extends from the front surface of the substrate in a direction opposite the back surface of the substrate. The side surfaces of the protrusion are not metal covered. Thus, short-circuiting between wires connected to the semiconductor elements and the metal layer covering the side surfaces is avoided.
