  • Patent number: 9905550
    Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concepts provide a semiconductor package and a method of fabricating the same. The method includes forming a groove to separate first semiconductor chips from each other. Forming the groove include performing a first sawing process on a bottom surface of a semiconductor substrate to cut the semiconductor substrate and a portion of a mold layer in a direction inclined with respect to the bottom surface, and performing a second sawing process to cut the mold layer in a direction substantially perpendicular to the bottom surface of the semiconductor substrate. A minimum width of the groove formed in the semiconductor substrate by the first sawing process may be greater than a width of the groove formed in the mold layer by the second sawing process.
