Abstract: A method includes polishing a semiconductor substrate of a first die to reveal first through-vias that extend into the semiconductor substrate, forming a dielectric layer on the semiconductor substrate, and forming a plurality of bond pads in the dielectric layer. The plurality of bond pads include active bond pads and dummy bond pads. The active bond pads are electrically coupled to the first through-vias. The first die is bonded to a second die, and both of the active bond pads and the dummy bond pads are bonded to corresponding bond pads in the second die.
