Abstract

A thermal pad of a semiconductor chip, a semiconductor chip including the thermal pad, and a method of manufacturing the semiconductor chip, the thermal pad including a thermal core in a trench at a lower surface of a semiconductor substrate, the thermal core being configured to receive heat generated from a through silicon via (TSV) vertically extending through the semiconductor substrate; a thermal head connected to the thermal core and protruding from the lower surface of the semiconductor substrate, the thermal head being configured to dissipate the heat in the thermal core; a first insulation layer between an inner surface of the trench and the thermal core; and a second insulation layer between the first insulation layer and the thermal core.
