Abstract: A flip chip device made using LCD-COG (liquid crystal display-chip on glass) technique. The flip chip device comprises a substrate, a plurality of chips having surfaces with a plurality of compliant bumps thereon. The compliant bumps are centrally disposed in the center of the chips for electrically connecting the chips and the substrate. An adhesive is daubed on a joint area of the substrate and the chips for jointing the substrate and the chips. By changing the position of the compliant bumps so that they are centrally disposed on the chips without changing the electrical characteristics and the wiring arrangement of the chips, costs are lowered, reliability is increased and the glass substrate is less easily bent.

Abstract: A bonding structure with compliant bumps includes a stopper structure and a protection layer. Compliant bumps include at least a polymer bump, a metal layer and a surface conductive layer. Both the stopper structure and protection layer are formed with polymer bumps and metal layer. Compliant bumps provide bonding pad and conductive channel. Stoppers are used to prevent compliant bumps from crushing for overpressure in bonding process. The protection layer provides functions of grounding and shielding. The stoppers can be outside or connected with the compliant bumps. The protection layer has thickness smaller than the stopper structure and compliant bumps. It can be separated or connected with stoppers.
