Abstract
Devices and methods of forming a device are disclosed. The method includes providing a wafer that includes a center insulator layer sandwiched by a top substrate and a bottom substrate. Both sides of the wafer are patterned and etched in sequence to form deep trenches in both substrates. A conductive seed layer is formed on both sides of the wafer in sequence to cover all exposed areas. Both sides of the wafer are electroplated simultaneously to fill both deep trenches with a conductive material. Both sides of the wafer are polished in sequence to form a coplanar surface. A protective layer is deposited on both sides of the wafer in sequence. Selective portions of the protective layer on both sides are patterned and etched in sequence to expose micro bump bonding areas. Micro bumps are formed on both sides of the wafer in sequence to facilitate electrical connection.
