  • Patent number: 11973014
    Abstract: Provided is a substrate structure including a substrate body, electrical contact pads and an insulating protection layer disposed on the substrate body, wherein the insulating protection layer has openings exposing the electrical contact pads, and at least one of the electrical contact pads has at least a concave portion filled with a filling material to prevent solder material from permeating along surfaces of the insulating protection layer and the electric contact pads, thereby eliminating the phenomenon of solder extrusion. Thus, bridging in the substrate structure can be eliminated even when the bump pitch between two adjacent electrical contact pads is small. As a result, short circuits can be prevented, and production yield can be increased.
