The present disclosure is directed to a wafer level chip scale package (WLCSP) with various combinations of contacts and Under Bump Metallizations (UBMs) having different structures and different amounts solder coupled to the contacts and UBMs. Although the contacts have different structures and the volume of solder differs, the total standoff height along the WLCSP remains substantially the same. Each portion of solder coupled to each respective contact and UBM includes a point furthest away from an active surface of a die of the WLCSP. Each point of each respective portion of solder is co-planar with each other respective point of the other respective portions of solder. Additionally, the contacts with various and different structures are positioned accordingly on the active surface of the die of the WLCSP.

In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a package assembly having a bump on a first substrate. A molding compound is on the first substrate and contacts sidewalls of the bump. A no-flow underfill layer is on a conductive region of a second substrate. The no-flow underfill layer and the conductive region contact the bump.
