Abstract

A semiconductor device having C-4 solder connections is joined to a chip carrier having pads suitable for receiving the C-4 solder connections. Sacrificial solder is formed on the chip carrier pads and then planarized to result in a good, planar surface profile for joining to the semiconductor device.
