ABSTRACT:
The invention includes the use of a decal to produce a packaged chip either at the chip level or wafer level. The decal includes a substrate containing circuitry that routes the chip output pads to bumps prepared for package attachment to another substrate such as a printed circuit board. The decal can be applied either to the wafer or to a single chip. The decal protects the chip and if necessary changes the interconnection density so that the chip can be interfaced with a printed circuit board or other electronic device. This configuration also may allow the packaged integrated circuit to be tested utilizing the bumps on the decal as temporary electrical contact features.
