SOLDER VOLUME FOR FLIP-CHIP BONDING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240282735 titled 'SOLDER VOLUME FOR FLIP-CHIP BONDING

The abstract describes methods, systems, and structures related to flip-chip bonding. A processor determines target solder volumes to be deposited on pads on a substrate, with variable volumes among the pads. Different thicknesses of resist are deposited across the substrate to define solder resist openings that match the target solder volumes.

  • Processor determines target solder volumes for pads on substrate
