Method of Preparing Fine-Pitch Electroplated Solder Bumping for Flip-Chip微細間距倒裝銲凸點電鍍製備技術

Summary
Electroplating-based flip chip solder preparation process had been widely used over other preparation methods. Although it is cheaper and is able to achieve the material deposition on the fine pitch I/O pads, the solder bumps resulted are not uniform and not quality-guaranteed.

In this invention, manufacturing of fine-pitch solder bumps on the wafers is made possible. It can achieve solder bumps manufacturing with 50microns space. The solder bump size is from 50 to 300microns. The solder materials will not collapse on the surface of wafers during the reflow process because of a specially designed layer. Series of photolithography process including the designing method of related photolithography mask can achieve the high quality and thick photoresist. The parameters of electroplating process and the process designed are also provided to improve the quality of solder and eliminate the IMC effect.
Technology Benefits
1. High quality and thick photoresist (50-175microns)
2. Improved quality of Cu and solder
3. Elimination of IMC effect
4. Photolithography process is improved
5. Lower cost
Technology Application
- Solder bumping process
- Electronic product packaging application
- Wafer bumping production
