A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a front surface and a back surface, elements formed on the substrate, interconnect metal layers formed over the front surface of the substrate, including a topmost interconnect metal layer, an inter-metal dielectric for insulating each of the plurality of interconnect metal layers, and a bonding pad disposed within the inter-metal dielectric, the bonding pad in contact with one of the interconnect metal layers other than the topmost interconnect metal layer.
