A method of forming an integrated circuit substrate that may be adapted to be attached to one or more electronic components. The method includes applying a resist to a back side of a substrate which includes patterned conductive layers on a front side and a back side of the substrate. The method further includes removing part of the patterned conductive layer from the front side of the substrate to form pads and interconnects on the front side of the substrate and applying another resist to the front side of the substrate. The method also includes forming a pattern in each resist that exposes the pads on the front and back sides of the substrate and applying electrolytic nickel to the pads on the substrate.

Method of forming an integrated circuit substrate

An apparatus and method for dissipating static electrical charge following a manufacturing operation is disclosed. A semiconductor package is provided with ground pads that are located to assure electrical contact with ejection pins used to translate the package from one position to another. Static electricity builds up on the semiconductor package. The ejection pins provide the pathway for dissipating static electrical charge out of the semiconductor package.
