SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

摘要

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a light receiving element region, a peripheral region, a boundary region, a plurality of signal lines, and a conductive layer. In light receiving element region, light receiving elements for performing photoelectric conversion are formed. Peripheral region is formed outside light receiving element region for performing input/output of an electric signal from/to the outside of the semiconductor substrate. Boundary region is formed between light receiving element region and peripheral region. The plurality of signal lines are arranged in boundary region for performing input/output of electric signals between light receiving element region and peripheral region. Conductive layer is arranged in a layer different from each of the plurality of signal lines. A relative position of conductive layer as seen from each of the plurality of signal lines is all identical, and conductive layer is all arranged in an identical layer.
