Methods for copper pillar protection may include forming a metal post over a contact on a semiconductor die, where the metal post comprises a sidewall. A metal cap may be formed on the metal post and may be wider than the width of the metal post. A solder bump may be formed on the metal cap, and a conformal passivation layer may be formed on at least the sidewall of the metal post. The metal cap may be rounded shaped or rectangular shaped in cross-section. The metal post and the metal cap may comprise copper. The metal cap may comprise a copper layer and a nickel layer. The seed metal layer may comprise one or more of titanium, tungsten, and copper. The conformal passivation layer may comprise a nonwettable polymer. Horizontal portions of the conformal passivation layer may be removed utilizing an anisotropic etch such as a plasma etch.

A bump structure that may be used to interconnect one substrate to another substrate is provided. A conductive pillar is formed on a first substrate such that the conductive pillar has a width different than a contact surface on a second substrate. In an embodiment the conductive pillar of the first substrate has a trapezoidal shape or a shape having tapered sidewalls, thereby providing a conductive pillar having base portion wider than a tip portion. The substrates may each be an integrated circuit die, an interposer, a printed circuit board, a high-density interconnect, or the like.

A method of fabricating multiple conductor layers utilizing the same seed layer is described. In an embodiment a stud bump structure is described in which the seed layer is encapsulated by the passivation layer. By forming the stud bump prior to the passivation layer, the height of the stud bump extending from the top surface of the passivation layer can be controlled.
