Bumping free flip chip process

摘要

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for an integrated circuit package assembly process are provided. A wafer is received having a surface defined by a plurality of integrated circuit regions. Electrical conductors are accessible through corresponding first openings in a first passivation layer on the surface of the wafer. Solderable metal layer features are formed on the electrical conductors through the first openings. The wafer is singulated to form a plurality of flip chip dies. A plurality of package substrates is received. Each package substrate has a plurality of solder on pad (SOP) features on a respective surface. Each flip chip die is mounted to a corresponding package substrate such that each SOP feature is coupled to a corresponding solderable metal layer feature, to form a plurality of integrated circuit packages.
