Therefore, under the relevant money conditions, the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ According to the above, the highly conductive bumps on the wafer are formed. When combined with the substrate, the conductive conductive bumps with lower crystal money can reduce the yield of the singularity (four) z, but cannot be reduced. The purpose of the cost. Further, the invention provides a method for forming a conductive bump of the same height in the above-mentioned background, which is required to provide a conductive bump of different sizes in the wafer level. With the structure 'using the staged electric (four) method, it can be ensured that the different sizes of the guides/bumps have the same bump height. Moreover, in order to make the conductive bumps and structures of the same height but different sizes, the height is provided here. The same method of forming the conductive bumps, covering the position of the first-time electric_filling the small bumps and then performing the subsequent electricity money, can form conductive bumps of uniform height but different sizes. According to the above object, the present invention The embodiment provides a method and structure for forming a highly uniform conductive bump. The wafer structure has a conductive connection structure--the first mask layer is formed on the conductive connection The first portion of the mask layer is removed to form a first conductive opening structure of the first opening and the second opening. The first opening and the second opening are different in size. The conductive layer fills the first opening and the second opening of the filling, and then the first layer forms a (four)-mask layer. The partial (four) two mask layer is removed to expose the second opening 'final plating a second conductive The layer fills the second opening. [Embodiment] The member of g, the example of g is not described in detail below, and the surface of the embodiment of the present invention is enlarged and displayed in an enlarged manner, and should not be used as In addition to the definition of 1253157, in the continuous wafer surface and method, other necessary parts of the structure may be included. Secondly, when the elements or structures in the embodiments of the present invention are in a single element or description 4 The stipulations of the present invention should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. The spirit and scope of the present invention can be applied to structures and methods in which a plurality of components or structures coexist. -A to D-D The side view of the process of performing the wedging bump process. Referring to Figure-A, the wafer 1 can be divided into a first region, such as a second region 5b, according to the size of the connecting conductive bumps, such as convex In terms of the block diameter, the conductive bumps located in the positive domain 5a will be smaller than the conductive bumps located in the second region 5a. Further, on the b circle 10, the first region 5a and the second region 5& The two portions, for example, are located on a half of the circular surface of the wafer, or the first region 5a and the second region 5a each include independent sub-regions and can be disposed of each other, depending on the actual needs. A plurality of metal connection pads 12a and 12b (connecting pads) are formed in an appropriate manner, such as a pad or a copper pad, respectively distributed in the first region 5a and the second region 5a. Thereafter, an insulating iayer is provided. Covering the surface of the wafer 10 and exposing the metal connection pads respectively; [2a and the surface of the metal connection pad i2b. Next, the conductive connection structure 16 is overlaid on the surface of the insulating protective layer 14 and the exposed metal connection pad i2a and the gold 253157 genus connection pad 12b by a suitable method such as electroplating or sputtering to form a conductive surface. In one embodiment, the conductive connection structure 16 is a multi-layered lower bump metal structure (UBM), for example, comprising a barrier layer and a wet/adhesive layer, and the conductive material is formed by a subsequent bump or pure convexity. Depending on the block. Thereafter, a mask layer 18_Sk layer is overlaid on the conductive connection structure 16 and a portion of the mask layer 18 is removed in an appropriate manner to form a plurality of openings 2 〇 a (openings) and openings 20 b (second openings) The value is respectively above the metal connection pad 12a and the metal connection pad. In the embodiment, the mask layer 18 is - the photosensitive dry film is covered by attachment, removed by general lithography and sidewise. In another embodiment, the mask layer 18 may also be covered with a liquid photoresist, but the invention is not limited to the above. Furthermore, in the embodiment, the thickness of the mask layer is may range from 25 micrometers (micron mete_(10) micrometers, depending on the height of the conductive bumps to be formed later, but the invention is not limited to the above. And the opening 20b depends on the diameter of the conductive bump to be formed later, and the opening width can range from 5 micron (micron meter) to 1 mm (m 诎 ( (7). It can be understood that due to the post-performance material - The conductive bump of the region 5a will be smaller than the conductive bump located in the second region, for example, the opening width of the opening 20a is smaller than the opening width of the opening. " Referring to Figure-B, the conductive layer 22a and the conductive layer are moved, for example An electric metal or alloy material such as copper or brocade, which is filled with openings and filled in but not filled with openings 20b. In the embodiment, the conductive layer 2 is like a conductive layer. The method of electric money is carried out. It should be noted that since the opening width of the opening coffee is smaller than the opening width of the opening survey, it is filled in the opening area of the first area & 9 1253157 20b under the same electric ore condition and time. The conductive layer 22b is filled in by the conductive layer 22a Located in the opening of the second _5a but not filled by the conductive layer 22b. 224 hearts, the other paste 23 initially _ cover layer 18, guides her paste 23 to expose the 99 Κ in the opening 20b — 士式盘材 m η. In the fine-grained layer, the layer 23 and the fresh layer 18 form a square/... mesh, but the hairpin is not limited to the same, or may be different from each other, for example, also coated by a TM plate. The mask layer 23 is in the conductive layer and the surrounding part = layer. In addition, the spirit of the present invention is that the mask layer a and the mask layer 18 are formed successively, but the alignment is not excessively considered. __ prime, because the correlation between the subsequent steps and the degree of alignment is not large. Port ", brother D picture" another conductive layer 24 covers the opening of the survey to fill the opening fb. Then remove 10 in order All of the mask layer 23 and the mask layer are formed so that the bumps (22a and 24) are respectively located above the metal connection pads and the metal connection pads (10), that is, respectively distributed in the first area Sa and Within the two regions. The conductive layer 22a and the conductive layer 22_ may be processed by the use of the Z, and the exposed connection structure 16 is removed in an appropriate manner (not shown) In one embodiment, the conductive layer % is formed in the same manner and material as the conductive layer or the conductive layer 22b, but the present invention is not limited to the same as the two, or may be different from each other. According to the spirit of the present invention described above, According to the above, in one embodiment of the present invention, a method for forming conductive bumps of the same height, a wafer structure, is provided in a row of the conductive layer and the conductive layer MW%. Forming a bump metal structure thereon. A first photoresist layer is formed on the lower bump metal structure, and then removing a portion of the first photoresist layer to form at least a first opening and a second opening exposed portion The lower bump metal structure, wherein the first opening and the second opening are different in size.
