                    Cu-through vias will eliminate the formation of bumps on the chip back surface [78].
                    High-aspect-ratio copper vias at pitches less than 50 μm, bonded with tin-based contacts
                    have been demonstrated by ASET as shown in Figure 3.65. The bonding reliability was
                    enhanced further with resin encapsulation. By combining Cu pads with lead-free solder
                    plating, IBM has demonstrated reliability at a 50-μm pitch [74].
