A new interconnection scheme is disclosed for a tape automated bonding (TAB) package, a flip chip package and an active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD) panel, where an electrically conducting adhesive is used to form an electrical interconnection between an active electronic device and its components. The electrically conducting adhesive can be a mixture comprising a polymer resin, a no-clean solder flux, a plurality of electrically conducting particles with an electrically conducting fusible coating which provides a metallurgical bond between the conducting particles as well as to the substrates. The advantages of using the electrically conducting adhesives include reduction in bonding pressure and / or bonding temperature, control of interfacial reactions, promotion of stable metallurgical bonds, enhanced reliability of the joints, and others.
