  • Publication number: 20100155922
    Abstract: A semiconductor die has an insulating material disposed in a peripheral region around the die. A blind via is formed through the gap. A conductive material is deposited in the blind via to form a conductive via. A conductive layer is formed between the conductive via and contact pad on the semiconductor die. A protective layer is formed over the front side of the semiconductor die. A portion of the insulating material and conductive via is removed from a backside of the semiconductor die opposite the front side of the semiconductor die so that a thickness of the conductive via is less than a thickness of the semiconductor wafer. The insulating material and conductive via are tapered. The wafer is singulated through the gap to separate the semiconductor die. A plurality of semiconductor die can be stacked and electrically interconnected through the conductive vias.
