An elongated bump structure for semiconductor devices is provided. An uppermost protective layer has an opening formed therethrough. A pillar is formed within the opening and extending over at least a portion of the uppermost protective layer. The portion extending over the uppermost protective layer exhibits a generally elongated shape. In an embodiment, the position of the opening relative to the portion of the bump structure extending over the uppermost protective layer is such that a ratio of a distance from an edge of the opening to an edge of the bump is greater than or equal to about 0.2. In another embodiment, the position of the opening is offset relative to center of the bump.

Methods and apparatus for package on package structures having stud bump through via interconnections. A structure includes an interconnect layer having a plurality of through via assemblies each including at least one stud bump are formed on conductive pads; and encapsulant surrounding the through via assembly, a first redistribution layer formed over a surface of the encapsulant and coupled to the through via assemblies and carrying connectors, and a second redistribution layer over interconnect layer at the other end of the through via assemblies, the through via assemblies extending vertically through the interconnect layer. In an embodiment the interconnect layer is mounted using the connectors to a lower package substrate to form a package on package structure. A first integrated circuit device may be mounted on the second redistribution layer of the interconnect layer.

A conductive pillar for a semiconductor device is provided. The conductive pillar is formed such that a top surface is non-planar. In embodiments, the top surface may be concave, convex, or wave shaped. An optional capping layer may be formed over the conductive pillar to allow for a stronger inter-metallic compound (IMC) layer. The IMC layer is a layer formed between solder material and an underlying layer, such as the conductive pillar or the optional capping layer.

The embodiments of bump-on-trace (BOT) structures and their layout on a die described reduce stresses on the dielectric layer on the metal pad and on the metal traces of the BOT structures. By orienting the axes of the metal bumps away from being parallel to the metal traces, the stresses can be reduced, which can reduce the risk of delamination of the metal traces from the substrate and the dielectric layer from the metal pad. Further, the stresses of the dielectric layer on the metal pad and on the metal traces may also be reduced by orienting the axes of the metal traces toward the center of the die. As a result, the yield can be increased.
