A material for Cu pillars is formed as cylindrical preforms in advance and connecting these cylindrical preforms to electrodes on a semiconductor chip to form Cu pillars. Due to this, it becomes possible to make the height/diameter ratio of the Cu pillars 2.0 or more. Since electroplating is not used, the time required for production of the Cu pillars is short and the productivity can be improved. Further, the height of the Cu pillars can be raised to 200 μm or more, so these are also preferable for moldunderfill. The components can be freely adjusted, so it is possible to easily design the alloy components to obtain highly reliable Cu pillars.
