Abstract

Abstract A device which utilizes flip chip technology to provide interconnection between printed circuit boards and integrated circuits is disclosed. The method involves metallization of the bond pad and multiple, novel bump compositions and coating compositions to provide an interconnection which is reliable and which withstands differences in the coefficient of thermal expansion between the silicon device and the bump material.
