Abstract
In accordance with the present invention, a system and method to increase die stand-off height in a flip chip are provided. The system includes a plurality of separator pedestals disposed between a first face of a die and a second face of a substrate, the substrate positioned generally parallel with, and spaced apart from, the die, and the first face being opposite the second face. The plurality of separator pedestals are operable to selectively force the die and substrate apart, increasing the stand-off height of the flip chip assembly.
