Patent ID: 7213330

Claim:
A method of fabricating an electronic device, the method comprising: providing a first component having a first plurality of contact pads patterned on a face surface thereof; providing a second component having a second plurality of contact pads patterned on a face surface thereof including: arranging each of the second plurality of contact pads to correspond with an associated one of the first plurality of contact pads when the face surface of the second component is placed in a confronting spaced relationship with the face surface of the first component, laterally offsetting a first contact pad of the second plurality of contact pads relative to its associated one of the first plurality of contact pads in a first direction, and laterally offsetting a second contact pad of the second plurality of contact pads relative to its associated one of the first plurality of contact pads in a second direction different from the first direction; and forming a plurality of conductive columnar members subsequent laterally offsetting a first contact pad and laterally offsetting a second contact pad, each conductive columnar member of the plurality interconnecting a contact pad of the second plurality of contact pads and its associated one of the first plurality of contact pads.
