Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A method for joining a multiplicity of multi-alloy solder columns to an electronic substrate and the structure formed by such method are disclosed. In the method, a mold plate equipped with a multiplicity of cavities is first filled by an injection molded solder technique with a high temperature solder forming a multiplicity of solder columns. The mold plate is then sandwiched between an extraction plate and a transfer plate by utilizing a multiplicity of displacement means equipped in the extraction plate to displace the multiplicity of solder columns from the mold plate into a multiplicity of apertures equipped in the transfer plate. The multiplicity of cavities in the transfer plate each has a straight opening and a flared opening. The flared opening is then filled with a low temperature solder paste to encapsulate one end of the high temperature solder column.
