Composite metal column for mounting semiconductor device

摘要

An integrated circuit chip which has a plurality of pads and non-reflowable contact members to be connected by reflow attachment to external parts. Each of these contact members has a height-to-diameter ratio and uniform diameter favorable for absorbing strain under thermo-mechanical stress. The members have a solderable surface on each end and a layer of reflowable material on each end. Each member is solder-attached at one end to a chip contact pad, while the other end of each member is operable for reflow attachment to external parts.
