Abstract

A semiconductor device includes conductor regions 24 and 26 on a layer of the semiconductor device; a first insulator layer 28 over and between the conductor regions 24 and 26; polyimide regions 30, 32, and 34 over the first insulator layer 28 in gaps between the conductor regions 24 and 26; and a second insulator layer 38 over the first insulator layer 28 and over the polyimide regions 30, 32, and 34. A surface of the second insulator layer 38 is substantially planar.
