Pad structures for semiconductor devices

Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure provide a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a first die and a second die boned face-to-face. The first die includes first transistors formed on a face side of the first die in a semiconductor portion and at least a contact structure disposed in an insulating portion outside the semiconductor portion. The second die includes a substrate and second transistors formed on a face side of the second die. Further, the semiconductor device includes a first pad structure disposed on a back side of the first die and the first pad structure is conductively coupled with the contact structure. An end of the contact structure protrudes from the insulating portion into the first pad structure. Further, in some embodiments, the semiconductor device includes a connection structure disposed on the back side of the first die and conductively connected with the semiconductor portion.
