A method for manufacturing solder bumps for through vias in a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposed to each other. The method includes the steps of forming a blind hole extending in the substrate from the first surface for each via and filling each blind hole with a conductive filler; a deepest part of each filler includes a bump portion made of a solder material. The method further includes the step of removing a part of the substrate extending from the second surface to have at least the bump portions protrude from the substrate. The non-protruding part of each filler defines the corresponding via and the bump portion defines the corresponding bump.
