Abstract: A method of making a semiconductor device can include providing a semiconductor die comprising a front surface comprising a gate pad and a source pad, the semiconductor die further comprising a back surface opposite the front surface, the back surface comprising a drain. A gate stud may be formed over and coupled to the gate pad. A source stud may be formed over and coupled to the source pad. An encapsulant may be formed over the semiconductor die. A through mold interconnect may extend between opposing first and second surfaces of the encapsulant. An RDL may be coupled to the gate stud, the source stud, and to the through mold interconnect. A land pad may be formed over the back surface of the semiconductor die and be coupled to the drain after singulating the semiconductor die from its native wafer and after forming the encapsulant over the semiconductor die.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a molded core unit that includes a first semiconductor die with conductive interconnects and a second semiconductor with conductive interconnects. The first semiconductor die and the second semiconductor die are encapsulated by a single encapsulant that contacts at least four sides surfaces and an active surface of the first semiconductor die and the second semiconductor die, as well as side surfaces of the conductive interconnects. The molded core unit further includes a fine-pitch build-up interconnect structure disposed over the encapsulant and coupled to the conductive interconnects of the first semiconductor die and the conductive interconnects of the second semiconductor die interconnected without a silicon interposer. The molded core unit can be mounted to an organic multi-layer substrate. A heat sink may be coupled to the back surfaces of the first semiconductor die and the second semiconductor die with a thermal interface material (TIM).

Abstract: A semiconductor device and method of making the semiconductor device is described. A semiconductor die is provided. A polymer layer is formed over the semiconductor die. A via is formed in the polymer layer. The polymer layer is crosslinked in a first process. The polymer layer is thermally cured in a second process. The polymer layer can comprise polybenzoxazoles (PBO), polyimide, benzocyclobutene (BCB), or siloxane-based polymers. A surface of the polymer layer can be crosslinked by a UV bake to control a slope of the via during subsequent curing. The second process can further comprise thermally curing the polymer layer using conduction, convection, infrared, or microwave heating. The polymer layer can be thermally cured by increasing a temperature of the polymer at a rate greater than or equal to 10 degrees Celsius per minute, and can be completely cured in less than or equal to 60 minutes.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a device package may include constructing a spacer element coupled with a surface of a semiconductor die unit, where the spacer element is configured to create a gap between the semiconductor die unit and a surface of a carrier, and encapsulating the semiconductor die unit within a mold compound, where the encapsulating includes introducing the mold compound into the gap.

Abstract: An adaptive patterning method and system for fabricating panel based package structures is described. Misalignment for individual device units in a panel or reticulated wafer may be adjusted for by measuring the position of each individual device unit and forming a unit-specific pattern over each of the respective device units.

Abstract: A method of panelized packaging is described in which a plurality of die units are placed on a dielectric film. The dielectric film is then cured to lock the plurality of die units in place, which are then encapsulated. The cured dielectric film is then patterned utilizing a mask-less patterning technique.
