Abstract

A semiconductor component having a feature suitable for inhibiting stress induced void formation and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor component. A semiconductor substrate is provided having a major surface. A layer of dielectric material is formed over the major surface. A metallization system is formed over the layer of dielectric material, wherein the metallization system includes a portion having gaps or apertures which inhibit stress induced void formation.
