Abstract

See full text

An integrated circuit (IC) has an under-bump metal (UBM) pad disposed between a solder bump and a semiconductor portion of the IC. The UBM pad has a contact perimeter formed with the solder bump. The UBM pad extends beyond the contact perimeter a sufficient distance to block alpha particles emitted from the surface of the solder bump from causing an upset event in the semiconductor portion.
