    Abstract: A method of fabricating a semiconductor package is provided, including providing a carrier provided having a circuit layer and a blocking member, forming on the carrier an encapsulating layer having a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface and encapsulating the circuit layer and the blocking member, with the first surface coupled with the carrier, and removing the carrier and the blocking member to form in the encapsulating layer via the first surface thereof an opening for an electronic component to be received therein. Before the electronic component is disposed in the opening, the circuit layer and the electronic component can be tested in advance, in order to retire the defectives. Therefore, as a defective electronic component is prevented from being disposed in the opening, no defective semiconductor package will be fabricated.
