Abstract
A method of forming a chip package portion having a reduced loading effect between various metal lines during a leveling process comprises forming a first layer, a passivation layer over the first layer, a second layer over the passivation layer, and a third layer over the second layer. The method also comprises forming a patterned opening having multiple depths by removing portions of the first layer, the passivation layer, the second layer, and the third layer by way of one or more removal processes that remove portions of the first layer, the passivation layer, the second layer, and the third layer in accordance with one or more patterned photoresist depositions. The method further comprises depositing a material into the patterned opening, and leveling the material deposited into the patterned opening.
