In some examples, a device includes a semiconductor element, a layer element, and a single connector element electrically connecting the semiconductor element and the layer element. In some examples, the single connector element includes two or more discrete connector elements, and each discrete connector element of the two or more discrete connector elements electrically connects the semiconductor element and the layer element. In some examples, the single connector element also includes conductive material attached to the two or more discrete connector elements.

A method for forming a chip package structure is provided. The method includes bonding a chip to a first surface of a first substrate. The method includes forming a bump and a dummy bump over a second surface of the first substrate. The dummy bump is close to a first corner of the first substrate, and the dummy bump is wider than the bump. The method includes bonding the first substrate to a second substrate through the bump. The dummy bump is electrically insulated from the chip and the second substrate. The method includes forming a protective layer between the first substrate and the second substrate. The protective layer surrounds the dummy bump and the bump, and the protective layer is between the dummy bump and the second substrate.
