PASSIVATION LAYER SURFACE TOPOGRAPHY MODIFICATIONS FOR IMPROVED INTEGRITY IN PACKAGED ASSEMBLIES

摘要

A structure and method for producing the same is disclosed. The structure includes an organic passivation layer with solids suspended therein. Preferential etch to remove a portion of the organic material and expose portions of such solids creates enhanced surface roughness, which provides a significant advantage with respect to adhesion of that passivation layer to the packaging underfill material.
