An interconnection component includes a substrate, and an active through-substrate via (TSV) penetrating through the substrate. Active metal connections are formed over the substrate and electrically connected to the active TSV. At least one of a dummy pad and a dummy solder bump are formed at surfaces of the interconnection component. The dummy pad is over the substrate and electrically connected to the active TSV and the active metal connections. The dummy solder bump is under the substrate and electrically connected to the active metal connections. The dummy pad and the dummy solder bump are open ended.
