Title:
IC device which has electro migration tolerance feed line structure
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6053690
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An integrated circuit (IC) device includes an electromigration resistant feed line. The IC device includes a substrate including active circuitry. A back end of the line (BEOL) metallization stack includes an interconnect metal layer that is coupled to a bond pad by the EM resistant feed line. A bonding feature is on the bond pad. The feed line includes a uniform portion and patterned trace portion that extends to the bond pad which includes at least three sub-traces that are electrically in parallel. The sub-traces are sized so that a number of squares associated with each of the sub-traces are within a range of a mean number of squares for the sub-traces plus or minus twenty percent or a current density provided to the bonding feature through each sub-trace is within a range of a mean current density provided to the bonding feature plus or minus twenty percent.
