An integrated circuit includes a substrate, a pad electrode disposed on the substrate, and a passivation layer disposed on the pad electrode and including an organic insulating material. The integrated circuit further includes a bump electrode disposed on the passivation layer and connected to the pad electrode through a contact hole. The passivation layer includes an insulating portion having a first thickness and covering an adjacent edge region of the pad electrode and the substrate, and a bump portion having a second thickness, that is greater than the first thickness, and covering a center portion of the pad electrode.

An integrated circuit die may be fabricating to have a plurality of contacts. A metal post may be formed on each of the plurality of contacts. A plurality of bumps may be formed on a plurality of contact regions of a leadframe or on the posts, in which the plurality of bumps are formed with a material that includes metal nanoparticles. The IC die may be attached to the leadframe by aligning the metal posts to the leadframe and sintering the metal nanoparticles in the plurality of bumps to form a sintered metal bond between each metal post and corresponding contact region of the leadframe.
