A method of making a flip chip assembly includes a substrate having a top surface and forming a plurality of generally longitudinally extending, laterally spaced apart bond fingers are formed on the top surface. Each of the plurality of bond fingers has a first longitudinal end portion and a second longitudinal end portion. Applying a transversely extending solder resist strip over the first longitudinal end portions of the bond fingers. The strip has an edge wall with a plurality of longitudinally projecting tooth portions separated by gaps. Each tooth portion and each gap aligned with a different one of the bond fingers in each adjacent pair of bond fingers.

Making a flip-chip assembly with bond fingers

A flip chip mounting board includes a substrate having a top surface and a plurality of generally parallel, longitudinally extending, laterally spaced apart bond fingers are formed on the top surface. Each of the plurality of bond fingers has a first longitudinal end portion and a second longitudinal end portion. A first strip of laterally extending solder resist material overlies the first longitudinal end portions of the bond fingers. The first strip has an edge wall with a plurality of longitudinally projecting tooth portions separated by gaps with a longitudinally extending tooth portion being aligned with every other one of the bond fingers. Adjacent bond fingers have first end portions covered by different longitudinal lengths of solder resist material.

Substrate with bond fingers

Methods of connecting solder bumps located on dies to leads located on substrates are disclosed herein. One embodiment includes applying a first compression force between the solder bump and the lead; relieving the first compression force between the solder bump and the lead; and applying a second compression force between the solder bump and the lead.
