Semiconductor device and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a bonding pad, and an area designation marking, wherein the bonding pad includes a first region, a second region, and a third region placed between the first region and the second region, wherein the area designation marking includes a first area designation mark configured to designate a first boundary between the first region and the third region and a second area designation mark configured to designate a second boundary between the second region and the third region, wherein the first region and the second region are configured to be contacted with a test probe. The first area designation mark includes a first notch or a first protrusion. The second area designation mark includes a second notch or a second protrusion. The first area designation mark includes a first pair of notches that is linearly spaced apart from each other to designate the first boundary line.
