Abstract

A semiconductor device wherein a coating film which is made of a polyimide resin or a polyimide isoindoloquinazolinedione resin and which is at least 10 .mu.m thick is disposed on at least an active region of a semiconductor substrate, and the resultant semiconductor substrate is encapsulated in a ceramic package. The semiconductor device has troubles relieved conspicuously, the troubles being ascribable to alpha-rays which come flying from impurities contained in the material of the package.
