Wafer Bump Inspection Enabling Next-Gen Packaging Technologies

As semiconductor designs advance, micro-bumps, copper pillars, and solder bumps become increasingly complex. Shrinking pitches and taller copper pillars are driving stricter control of interconnect quality across 2.5D/3D packaging, CoWoS-class interposers, chiplets, and HBM3/4 stacks. 

For thermo-compression bonding (TCB) and hybrid bonding ready flows, pre-bond coplanarity and volume uniformity are critical to yield. Confovis systems provide 3D optical metrology and automated inspection to detect height variations, deformations, and surface defects with unmatched precision.

Wafer Bump Inspection Challenges

Micro-Scale Defect Detection

Identifying height variations, missing bumps, and deformations at sub-micron precision.

Surface Contamination

Detecting oxidation, organic residues, and material inconsistencies.

High-Speed, High-Throughput Requirements

Maintaining efficiency while inspecting hundreds of thousands of bumps per wafer.

3D Profiling & Metrology

Measuring bump height, coplanarity, and volume for uniform interconnect performance.

Inspecting Bumps and Pillars for Advanced Semiconductors

As semiconductor designs advance, micro-bumps, copper pillars, and solder bumps become increasingly complex. Shrinking pitches and taller copper pillars are driving stricter control of interconnect quality across 2.5D/3D packaging, CoWoS-class interposers, chiplets, and HBM3/4 stacks.

Fine-Pitch Micro-Bump Inspection for Thermo-Compression Bonding (TCB)

Reliable wafer bonding flows depend on tight pre-bond coplanarity, bump volume uniformity, and clean surfaces. Confovis integrates AOI with 3D/2D metrology to qualify micro-bumps and Cu pillars with SnAg caps for TCB as well as solder bumps used in other process flows.
