Abstract
VIATOP (VT), Aluminum Via connecting the bond pad and the Top Copper level, is the critical component for Bond Pad (BP) Electromigration (EM) in advanced technology nodes, where a smaller VT or its array is employed for maximum chip-scaling. In this study, we evaluated BP EM using various dimensions of VT, investigated the scaling effect, and proposed a BP EM model for current crowding & reservoir effect in the VT.
