A system and method for computer-aided design of semiconductor integrated circuit devices provides for having dummy vias beneath UBM of bump cells to prevent delamination at the bump cell sites during bonding. The dummy vias are inserted into the design and bump cell placement occurs during the floorplanning stage and prior to placement and routing of the active integrated circuit components. In this manner, a sufficiently high via density is achieved and design information on the bump cells including the dummy vias is provided to a computer-aided design, CAD, system along with program instructions for carrying out the indicated sequence of design operations.
