Abstract

A method for connecting substrates includes using an adhesive interposer structure (11) to bond a semiconductor device (26) to a substrate (18). The adhesive interposer structure (11) includes a non-conductive adhesive laminant (12) and conductive adhesive bumps (13). The conductive adhesive bumps (13) provide a conductive path between conductive bumps (27) on the semiconductor device (26) and conductive metal pads (21) located on the substrate (18). In an alternative embodiment, a conductive adhesive material (34) is screen or stencil printed into vias (39) located on a printed circuit board (38) to form conductive adhesive bumps (33). A non-conductive adhesive (52) is then screen or stencil printed onto the printed circuit board (38) adjacent the conductive adhesive bumps (33). A semiconductor die is then connected to the structure.
