Abstract

A flip chip interconnect system comprises an elongated pillar comprising two elongated portions, a first portion including solder with or without lead and a second portion including copper or gold or other material having a higher reflow temperature than the first portion. The second portion is to be connected to the semiconductor chip and has a length preferably of more than 55 microns to reduce the effect of &agr; particles from the solder from affecting electronic devices on the chip. The total length of the pillar is preferably in the range of 80 to 120 microns.
