| 20100297842 | CONDUCTIVE BUMP STRUCTURE FOR SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND FABRICATION METHOD THEREOF - A conductive bump structure for a semiconductor device and a method for fabricating the same are provided. A metal bump is formed on an under bump metallurgy (UBM) structure electrically connected to and formed on a connection pad of the semiconductor device, wherein the metal bump is sized smaller than the UBM structure. Subsequently, a solder bump is mounted on the UBM structure and encapsulates the metal bump, so as to increase the bonding area and simultaneously allow the solder bump to be sufficiently wetted on the UBM structure to enhance bonding stress of the solder bump. | 11-25-2010 |
