A semiconductor device includes a circuit block formed in a peripheral edge portion of a semiconductor chip, a circuit block pad formed on the circuit block providing an electrical connection for said circuit block, and a bonding pad laterally offset from the circuit block and the circuit block pad, the bonding pad being electrically connected to the circuit block pad and electrically connected to a lead frame by a bonding wire, the laterally offset bonding pad thereby functioning as a substitute wire bonding pad for the circuit block. |
