  • Patent number: 7223683
    Abstract: A bumping process mainly comprises the following steps. Initially, a wafer having a plurality of bonding pads and a passivation layer with passivation openings exposing the bonding pads is provided. Next, a first dielectric layer with first openings and second openings is disposed on the wafer.
