  • Patent number: 6537854
    Abstract: A method for bonding an IC chip formed with corrugated, multi-layered bumps to conductive elements on a substrate and devices formed by such method are disclosed. In the method, multi-layered bumps are formed by a cover layer of a conductive metal deposited on a base layer of a compliant material. The exposed bonding surface of the bump is formed in a corrugated fashion, or in a serrated shape with saw-tooth configurations. The saw-tooth configurations may either be rectangular or triangular. In the bonding method, instead of using an anisotropic conductive film loaded with conductive particles, a solid adhesive film without conductive particles or a liquid adhesive material without conductive particles can be utilized. The serrated bonding surface of the bumps is effective in expelling the adhesive material from the bonding interface between the bumps and the conductive elements such that a low resistance bond can be formed between an IC chip and a substrate.

  • Publication number: 20020070463
    Abstract: A bonded structure comprising the physical and electrical connections between an integrated circuit element and substrate using a composite bump comprised of a single polymer body of low Young's Modulus and a conductive metal coating. When the bonded structure is formed the composite bump is deformed and the low Young's Modulus of the polymer body allows a very reliable bonded structure with very low bonding force. Due to the low Young's Modulus there is little tendency to separate the connections after the bonded structure is formed. The bond can be formed using thermocompression bonding, ultrasonic bonding, application of heat or application of light. The bond can also be formed using a non conductive adhesive between the integrated circuit element and the substrate. The bond can also be formed with a conductive adhesive coating on the composite bump.

  • Patent number: 6084301
    Abstract: A composite bump structure and methods of forming the composite bump structure. The composite bump structure comprises a polymer body of relatively low Young's Modulus compared to metals covered by a conductive metal coating formed at the input/output pads of an integrated circuit element or substrate. The composite bump is formed using material deposition, lithography, and etching techniques. A layer of soldering metal can be formed on the composite bumps if this is desired for subsequent processing. A base metal pad covering the integrated circuit element input/output pad can be used to provide added flexibility in location of the composite bump. The composite bump can be formed directly on the input/output pad or on the base metal pad.
