Apparatus and methods for preapplying discrete amounts of underfill material of a component on a component substrate before the solder bumps of the component are joined by reflow with a packaging substrate to create a microelectronics package. The underfill material is preferably applied by a noncontact dispensing technique as discrete amounts at interstitial areas on an active surface of the component substrate defined between nearest-neighbor solder bumps. The underfill material forms a continuous meniscus of underfill material across the interstitial areas not occupied by the solder bumps and forms a collar encircling each of the solder bumps. The cured underfill material strengthens and improves the reliability of the solder joints formed by the bump reflow.
