An interconnection structure of a semiconductor chip may include an interconnection via, a lower pad, a conductive bump, and an upper pad. The interconnection via may be arranged in the semiconductor chip. The lower pad may be arranged on a lower end of the interconnection via exposed through a lower surface of the semiconductor chip. The conductive bump may be arranged on the lower pad. The upper pad may be arranged on an upper end of the interconnection via exposed through an upper surface of the semiconductor chip. The upper pad may have a width wider than a width of the interconnection via and narrower than a width of the lower pad. Thus, an electrical short between the conductive bumps may not be generated in the interconnection structure having a thin thickness.
