  • Patent number: 11961764
    Abstract: A semiconductor device has a carrier with a fixed size. A plurality of first semiconductor die is singulated from a first semiconductor wafer. The first semiconductor die are disposed over the carrier. The number of first semiconductor die on the carrier is independent from the size and number of first semiconductor die singulated from the first semiconductor wafer. An encapsulant is deposited over and around the first semiconductor die and carrier to form a reconstituted panel. An interconnect structure is formed over the reconstituted panel while leaving the encapsulant devoid of the interconnect structure. The reconstituted panel is singulated through the encapsulant. The first semiconductor die are removed from the carrier. A second semiconductor die with a size different from the size of the first semiconductor die is disposed over the carrier. The fixed size of the carrier is independent of a size of the second semiconductor die.

  • Publication number: 20220093417
    Abstract: A semiconductor device has a semiconductor wafer including a plurality of semiconductor die. An insulating layer is formed over the semiconductor wafer. A portion of the insulating layer is removed by LDA to expose a portion of an active surface of the semiconductor die. A first conductive layer is formed over a contact pad on the active surface of the semiconductor die. The semiconductor wafer is singulated to separate the semiconductor die. The semiconductor die is disposed over a carrier with the active surface of the semiconductor die offset from the carrier. An encapsulant is deposited over the semiconductor die and carrier to cover a side of the semiconductor die and the exposed portion of the active surface. An interconnect structure is formed over the first conductive layer. Alternatively, a MUF material is deposited over a side of the semiconductor die and the exposed portion of the active surface.
