Abstract
The invention is related to a method of fabricating an attachment bump of a component (11). In accordance with the invention, a flexible preform (13a) is fabricated, which is plated with materials (13b) appropriate for metallurgical bonding. The invention is also related to a method of attaching a component (11) to the surface of a circuit card (15) using bumps. In accordance with the invention, bumps are formed from preforms (13a) made from a flexible material, which preforms (13a) are metallized (13b) over their entire surface. The bump (13a, 13b) is attached to the attachment pads (12a, 16a) of the component (11) and the circuit card (15) by means of metallizations (12b, 13b, 16b) between the attachment pads and the bump. The bond is formed metallurgically by transfusion. The surface of the bonding side of the component (11) is coated with an insulating material (14) before the mentioned bonding elsewhere than at the attachment pads (12). The mentioned insulating material (14) is thermoplastic, thermoplastic resin or thermosetting plastic in the B state. To accomplish metallurgical bonding of the bonding material, bismuth (Bi) is used as part of the material.
