The present invention provides a solder deposition method that includes
the step of forming a dam around an electrode on a substrate, the step of
applying a solder precipitating composition to the substrate, and the
step of depositing solder on the surface of the electrode while heating
the solder precipitating composition applied. This solder deposition
method is suitable for forming large bumps at fine pitches. In
particular, it is capable of depositing solder in a desired height
precisely and easily, and yet preventing occurrence of voids.
