A bump structure of a semiconductor package and a method for fabricating the same are provided. The bump structure is used to connect a semiconductor element to a carrier of the semiconductor package. The fabrication method primarily employs an electroplating process to form the bump structure including an under bump metallurgy (UBM) layer, at least one I-shaped conductive pillar, and a solder material. This allows fine-pitch electrical connection pads to be arranged in the semiconductor package, and also provides an enhanced support structure and a sufficient height between the semiconductor element and the carrier.

An integrated circuit structure includes a passivation layer; a via opening in the passivation layer; a copper-containing via in the via opening; a polymer layer over the passivation layer, wherein the polymer layer comprises an aperture, and wherein the copper-containing via is exposed through the aperture; a post-passivation interconnect (PPI) line over the polymer layer, wherein the PPI line extends into the aperture and physically contacts the copper-via opening; and an under-bump metallurgy (UBM) over and electrically connected to the PPI line.

The present invention discloses a method of manufacturing a multi-chip stacking package. The characteristic of the invention is that after the alignment of the bumps of at least two chips, welded bumps will be generated in a high temperature welding to form a welded bump. Furthermore, one of the at least two chips may only provide bonding pad similar to the Under Bump Metallurgy and may not provide bumps, and using the bonding pad to be welded with the bump on another chip.

In a semiconductor integrated circuit device, testing pads (209b) using a conductive layer, such as relocation wiring layers (205) are provided just above or in the neighborhood of terminals like bonding pads (202b) used only for probe inspection at which bump electrodes (208) are not provided. Similar testing pads may be provided even with respect to terminals like bonding pads provided with bump electrodes. A probe test is executed by using these testing pads or under the combined use of under bump metallurgies antecedent to the formation of the bump electrodes together with the testing pads. According to the above, bump electrodes for pads dedicated for probe testing may not be added owing to the use of the testing pads. Further, the use of testing pads provided in the neighborhood of the terminals like the bonding pads and smaller in size than the under bump metallurgies enables a probe test to be executed after a relocation wiring process.
