ABSTRACT:
A compliant element (23, 25) is provided between an integrated circuit (11) and a substrate (19) which are bonded and interconnected by an anisotropic conductive adhesive (20) comprising conductive particles (21) in a polymer matrix (22). In one embodiment, one set of bonding pads (12, FIG. 2) is coated with a layer (23) of a metal that is significantly softer than the metal from which the conductive particles are made, which permits an oversized conductive particle (21a) to indent into the soft metal layer (23). In another embodiment, one of the sets of bonding pads (15, FIG. 3) is arranged on a relatively thick layer of adhesive (25) which is sufficiently viscous at the temperature at which contact is made to permit the bonding pad (15) to pivot in response to pressure from an oversized conductive particle (21d).
