    Abstract: A reliability prediction method includes: calculating a change of each of a plurality of alloy phases at a bonding portion between an electrode pad and a bonding wire; setting a generation of a metal oxide phase caused by a corrosion reaction, based on an initial crack structure of the bonding portion; calculating an elastic strain energy at each of specified portions of the bonding portion; setting a progress of a crack, based on the elastic strain energy at each of the specified portions; and predicting a lifetime of the semiconductor device, based on a length of the crack due to the progress of the crack.

    Abstract: Characteristics of a semiconductor device are improved. A semiconductor device includes a coil CL1 and a wiring M2 formed on an interlayer insulator IL2, a wiring M3 formed on an interlayer insulator IL3, and a coil CL2 and a wiring M4 formed on the interlayer insulator IL4. Moreover, a distance DM4 between the coil CL2 and the wiring M4 is longer than a distance DM3 between the coil CL2 and the wiring M3 (DM4>DM3). Furthermore, the distance DM3 between the coil CL2 and the wiring M3 is set to be longer than a sum of a film thickness of the interlayer insulator IL3 and a film thickness of the interlayer insulator IL4, which are positioned between the coil CL1 and the coil CL2. In this manner, it is possible to improve an insulation withstand voltage between the coil CL2 and the wiring M4 or the like, where a high voltage difference tend to occur. Moreover, a transformer formation region 1A and a seal ring formation region 1C surrounding a peripheral circuit formation region 1B are formed so as to improve the moisture resistance.

    Abstract: There is a need to improve reliability of the semiconductor device.A semiconductor device includes a printed circuit board and a semiconductor chip mounted over the printed circuit board. The semiconductor chip includes a pad, an insulation film including an opening to expose part of the pad, and a pillar electrode formed over the pad exposed from the opening. The printed circuit board includes a terminal and a resist layer including an opening to expose part of the terminal. The pillar electrode of the semiconductor chip and the terminal of the printed circuit board are coupled via a solder layer. Thickness h1 of the pillar electrode is measured from the upper surface of the insulation film. Thickness h2 of the solder layer is measured from the upper surface of the resist layer. Thickness h1 is greater than or equal to a half of thickness h2 and is smaller than or equal to thickness h2.
