Abstract
A bump arrangement of a flip-chip is disclosed. The bump arrangement comprises: a conductive bumps array formed at a core region of the flip-chip, a first ring of conductive bumps surrounding the conductive bumps array, a second ring surrounding the first ring, a third ring surrounding the second ring, and a fourth ring surrounding the third ring. In the four rings of bumps, the bumps of the third ring and the fourth ring are staggered each other and most of them are provided for I/O signal terminal so as to reduce the length conductive traces for I/O signal connection. The bumps in the first and the second ring are provided for power connection or ground connection. The first ring, the second ring, the third ring, the fourth ring and the bump at the core region are connected to conductive traces of an interconnection layer through a redistribution layer. The redistribution layer is located in between a passivation layer and the interconnection layer.
