ABSTRACT An improved method of providing a semiconductor device having a semiconductor substrate containing solid state signal processing circuitry. The solid state signal processing circuitry comprises doped regions of predetermined resistivity within the semiconductor sub- strate. A passivation layer covers a surface of the semi- conductor substrate with electrical contacts to the solid state signal processing circuitry exposed through the passivation layer. The improvement comprises forming, on the electrical contacts, contact pads which have an upper surface devoid of a depressed center region. After the forming step, an adhering insulator material is deposited over the passivation layer, and a semiconductor wafer is mounted onto the substrate above the contact pads to form an assembly. The mounting process comprises applying pressure to the assembly and heating the assembly so that, prior to curing, adhering insulator material is squeezed out between the contact pads and a minimum thickness of adhering insula- tor material remains between the substrate and the wafer. The adhering insulator material is then allowed to cure. Portions of the wafer and adhering insulator material are then removed to expose the upper surface of predetermined contact pads. Predetermined regions of the remaining semi- conductor wafer are then electrically interconnected with predetermined contact pads. ,
