  • Patent number: 6877653
    Abstract: A method of modifying the tin to lead ratio of a tin-lead bump forms a patterned solder mask over a substrate that comprises a first tin-lead bump formed thereon, the patterned solder mask having an opening that exposes the tin-lead bump. A solder material including tin and lead is filled in the opening of the solder mask over the first tin-lead bump. The solder material has a tin to lead ratio that differs from that of the first tin-lead bump. The solder material is reflowed to fuse with the first tin-lead bump, which forms a second tin-lead bump. The tin to lead ratio of the second tin-lead bump is thereby different from that of the first tin-lead bump.
