    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes an array of flexible connectors configured to mitigate thermomechanical stresses. In one embodiment, a semiconductor assembly includes a substrate coupled to an array of flexible connectors. Each flexible connector can be transformed between a resting configuration and a loaded configuration. Each flexible connector includes a conductive wire electrically coupled to the substrate and a support material at least partially surrounding the conductive wire. The conductive wire has a first shape when the flexible connector is in the resting configuration and a second, different shape when the flexible connector is in the loaded configuration. The first shape includes at least two apices spaced apart from each other in a vertical dimension by a first distance, and the second shape includes the two apices spaced apart from each other in the vertical dimension by a second distance different than the first distance.

    Abstract: An apparatus for a BGA package includes a pad mounted on a substrate. The apparatus also includes a solder resist layer disposed over the substrate and a buffer layer disposed over the solder resist layer. The solder resist layer can have a first aperture and the buffer layer can have a second aperture. The first and second apertures are aligned such that at least a portion of the pad is exposed to create a solder-mask-defined mounting pad. A diameter of the second aperture is larger than a diameter of the first aperture.
