ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit is mounted on, and electrically connected to an underlying substrate by the flip-chip technique. In this technique, the chip is inverted and bonding pads on the chip are soldered to correspondingly located bonding pads on the substrate. By the invention a continuous ribbon or loop of solder or polymer extends between the chip and substrate surfaces and defines a sealed cavity. Because the interior of the cavity is sealed from contaminants, conducting leads of the chip or substrate can be left uncovered within the cavity so reducing the capacitance of high frequency circuits. The substrate can be a connection medium such as a printed circuit board or could be another integrated circuit chip.
