摘要： A method for direct chip attach of a semiconductor chip to a circuit board by using solder bumps and an underfill layer is disclosed. In the method, a layer of in-situ polymeric mold material is first screen printed on the top surface of the semiconductor chip exposing a multiplicity of bond pads. The in-situ polymeric mold layer is formed with a multiplicity of apertures which are then filled with solder material in a molten solder screening process to form solder bumps. A thin flux-containing underfill material layer is then placed on top of a circuit board over a plurality of conductive pads which are arranged in a mirror image to the bond pads on the semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip and the circuit board are then pressed together with the underfill layer inbetween and heated to a reflow temperature of higher than the melting temperature of the solder material until electrical communication is established between the bond pads and the conductive pads. In the bonded assembly, the in-situ polymeric mold layer and the underfill material layer forms a composite underfill to replace a conventional underfill material that must be injected between bonded chip and substrate by a capillary action in a time consuming process.

摘要： A method of forming interconnects on an electronic device that can be bonded to another electronic device at a low processing temperature can be carried out by depositing a first interconnect material on the electronic device forming protrusions and then depositing a second interconnect material to at least partially cover the protrusions, wherein the second interconnect material has a lower flow temperature than the first interconnect material. The method is carried out by flowing a molten solder into a mold having microcavities to fill the cavities and then allowed to solidify. The mold is then aligned with a silicon wafer containing chips deposited with high melting temperatures solder bumps such that each microcavity of the mold is aligned with each high melting temperature solder bump on the chip. The aligned mold/wafer assembly is then passed through a reflow furnace to effect the transfer of the low melting temperature solder in the mold cavities onto the tip of the high melting temperature solder bumps on the wafer. A dual metallurgical composition bump is thereby formed by the two different solder alloys.
