Abstract

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor chip with bumps comprises providing a semiconductor chip, which defines an active surface and a back surface and has a plurality of pads disposed on the active surface, and a plurality of preformed solder balls. A passivation is disposed on the active surface of the semiconductor chip with the pads exposed. A plurality of UBMs (Under Bump Metallurgy) are disposed on the pads and define a plurality of bump pads. The diameter of the bump pads is about 100% to about 130% of the diameter of the preformed solder balls. The preformed solder balls are placed on the bump pads and then reflowed to form a plurality of bumps on the semiconductor chip.
