The semiconductor package has a metal layer, a first dielectric layer formed on a metal layer, and an opening formed through the first dielectric layer to expose a part of the metal layer. The bump structure has an under bump metallurgy (hereinafter UBM), a first buffer layer and a metal bump. The UBM is formed on the first part of the metal layer, a sidewall of the opening and a top surface of the first dielectric layer. The first buffer layer is formed between a part of the UBM corresponding to the top surface of the first dielectric layer and the top surface of the first dielectric layer. The metal bump is formed on the UBM. Therefore, the first buffer layer effectively absorbs a thermal stress to avoid cracks generated in the bump structure after the bonding step.

A large scale integrated circuit chip includes a semiconductor circuit having a multilayered wiring structure, a metal guard ring surrounding the semiconductor circuit, and a plurality of external connection terminals, on a semiconductor circuit. The plurality of external connection terminals connect to an uppermost-layer wiring of the multilayered wiring structure and are exposed on a surface of the large scale integrated circuit chip. A predetermined external connection terminal conducts to a predetermined wiring through a conductive via within the guard ring and conducts to a conductive piece through another conductive via outside the guard ring. One side of the external connection terminal extending over the guard ring connects to the conductive piece, and the other side of the external connection terminal connects to the uppermost-layer wiring within the guard ring. Thus, a cutout part is not necessary in the guard ring.
