An integrated circuit structure includes a metal pad, a passivation layer including a portion over the metal pad, a first polymer layer over the passivation layer, and a first Post-Passivation Interconnect (PPI) extending into to the first polymer layer. The first PPI is electrically connected to the metal pad. A dummy metal pad is located in the first polymer layer. A second polymer layer is overlying the first polymer layer, the dummy metal pad, and the first PPI. An Under-Bump-Metallurgy (UBM) extends into the second polymer layer to electrically couple to the dummy metal pad.

A method for manufacturing connection structure, the method includes arranging conductive particles and a first composite on a first electrode located on a first surface of a first member, arranging a second composite on the first electrode and a region other than the first electrode of the first surface, arranging the first surface and a second surface of a second member where a second electrode is located, so that the first electrode and the second electrode are opposed to each other, pressing the first member and the second member, and curing the first composite and the second composite.
