A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device capable of thinning a semiconductor chip can be performed while preventing the semiconductor chip from being damaged. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes: preparing a semiconductor substrate including a plurality of semiconductor chips, attaching the semiconductor substrate to a support substrate with an adhesive support film, removing an edge region of the semiconductor substrate together with a portion of the adhesive support film between the edge region of the semiconductor substrate and the support substrate and, thereafter, polishing the semiconductor substrate to thin the semiconductor substrate. |
