Patent abstract
The present invention uses a two step plasma etch process to create a via contact with an integral bump. After the via and bump have been plated, the semiconductor substrate is planarized to remove the excess metal, using the semiconductor substrate as a planar stop. The bulk silicon substrate surrounding the bumps are plasma etched back to expose the bumps for assembly.
