ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a solder structure which provides enhanced fatigue life properties when used to bond substrates particularly at the second level such as BGA and CGA interconnections. The solder structure is preferably a sphere or column and has a metal layer wettable by solder and the structure is used to make solder connections in electronic components such as joining an electronic module such as a chip connected to a MLC which module is connected to a circuit board. The solder structure preferably has an overcoat of solder on the metal layer to provide a passivation coating to the metal layer to keep it clean from oxidation and corrosion and also provide a wettable surface for attachment of the solder structure to solder on the pads of the substrate being bonded.
