SELECTIVE BALL-LIMITING METALLURGY ETCHING PROCESSES FOR FABRICATION OF ELECTROPLATED TIN BUMPS

摘要

A ball-limiting metallurgy stack is disclosed for an electrical device that contains at least one copper layer disposed upon a titanium adhesion metal layer. The ball-limiting metallurgy stack resists tin migration toward the upper metallization of the device. An etch process flow is also disclosed which resists the redepostion of the tin during etching of a copper layer.
