Abstract: A semiconductor device has a semiconductor die with composite bump structures over a surface of the semiconductor die. A conductive layer is formed over the substrate. The conductive layer has a channel in an interconnect site of the conductive layer. The channel extends beyond a footprint of the composite bump structures. The semiconductor die is disposed over the substrate. The bump material of the composite bump structures is melted.
