Abstract

A stress reduction interposer is provided for disposition between first and second solder materials of first and second electronic devices, respectively. The stress reduction interposer includes a plate element having a central portion and a periphery surrounding the central portion and being formed to define first cavities having an upper area limit at the periphery and a second cavity having a lower area limit, which is higher than the upper area limit, at the central portion and third and fourth solder materials being disposable in the second cavity and in the first cavities, respectively, to be electrically communicative with the first and second solder materials. The third solder material is more compliant and has a higher melting temperature than at least the second and fourth solder materials.
