Controlled area solder bonding for dies

摘要

A method of fabricating a semiconductor comprises forming a plurality of stud bumps in a pattern having a geometrical shape on a surface of a substrate, the pattern defining a periphery of a bonding area on the surface of the substrate, and placing a solder material in the bonding area such that the solder material is surrounded by the stud bumps. The solder material is heated to a temperature where the solder material begins to flow within the bonding area. A bonding surface of a die is pressed onto the stud bumps with a sufficient pressure to crush the stud bumps a predetermined extent such that the solder material substantially evenly spreads between the stud bumps within the bonding area. The solder material is then solidified to form a final solder area that conforms to the geometrical shape of the pattern of stud bumps.
