Abstract:
1. An electronic chip component, comprising: a semiconductor chip having an integrated circuit therein; and a meltable glue layer; said semiconductor chip having an active surface including a plurality of contact surfaces for connecting said integrated circuit to an external circuit carrier; said integrated circuit having a top non-conductive layer defining a level, said contact surfaces being free of said top non-conductive layer; each one of said plurality of said contact surfaces including a contact layer having pressure contact material; said contact layer protruding beyond said level of said top non-conductive layer of said integrated circuit and being laterally larger than a corresponding contact surface; said contact layer having a height; said meltable glue layer having a thickness at least as great as said height of said contact layer; and said pressure contact material producing an electrical connection between said pressure contact material of said contact surfaces and respective terminal pads of the external circuit carrier without bonding or soldering.
