Design Scheme for Connector Site Spacing and Resulting Structures

摘要

A system and method for preventing cracks in a passivation layer is provided. In an embodiment a contact pad has a first diameter and an opening through the passivation layer has a second diameter, wherein the first diameter is greater than the second diameter by a first distance of about 10 μm. In another embodiment, an underbump metallization is formed through the opening, and the underbump metallization has a third diameter that is greater than the first diameter by a second distance of about 5 μm. In yet another embodiment, a sum of the first distance and the second distance is greater than about 15 μm. In another embodiment the underbump metallization has a first dimension that is less than a dimension of the contact pad and a second dimension that is greater than a dimension of the contact pad.
