Abstract
A substrate ( ) for an unpackaged integrated circuit (IC) chip ( ). The substrate comprises an insulative material ( ), a plurality of contacts ( ) disposed thereon, and a conductive ring ( ) disposed around the outer perimeter of the contacts ( ). Conductive traces ( ) may be disposed around one or more contacts ( ) and may be coupled to the conductive ring ( ). An electro-less plating technique is utilized to plate contacts ( ), avoiding unnecessary conductive material such as plating stubs being included in the contact ( ) pattern, reducing interference. The conductive ring ( ) shields the chip ( ) from interference.
