    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.

  • Patent number: 9196505
    Abstract: In a semiconductor device, an organic insulation pattern is disposed between first and second rerouting patterns. The organic insulation pattern may absorb the physical stress that occurs when the first and second rerouting patterns expand under heat. Since the organic insulation pattern is disposed between the first and second rerouting patterns, insulating properties can be increased relative to a semiconductor device in which a semiconductor pattern is disposed between rerouting patterns. Also, since a seed layer pattern is disposed between the first and second rerouting patterns and the organic insulation pattern and between the substrate and the organic insulation pattern, the adhesive strength of the first and second rerouting patterns is enhanced. This also reduces any issues with delamination. Also, the seed layer pattern prevents the metal that forms the rerouting pattern from being diffused to the organic insulation pattern.
