A fan-out wafer level package includes a semiconductor die with a redistribution layer on a sidewall of the semiconductor die. A redistribution layer positioned over the die includes an extended portion that extends along the sidewall. The semiconductor die is encapsulated in a molding compound layer. The molding compound layer is positioned between the extended portion of the redistribution layer and the sidewall of the semiconductor die. Solder contacts, for electrically connecting the semiconductor device to an electronic circuit board, are positioned on the redistribution layer. The solder contacts and the sidewall of the redistribution layer can provide electrical contact on two different locations. Accordingly, the package can be used to improve interconnectivity by providing vertical and horizontal connections.

The disclosure relates to a semiconductor structure, including: a substrate, a bonding pad, a first protective layer, a redistribution layer, a connecting plug, bumps, and a second protective layer. The redistribution layer includes a first metal line and a second metal line. Since the second metal line and the first metal line are of the same height, so the bumps on the first metal line and the second metal line are equivalently formed on the same layer. The coplanarity of the bumps on the metal lines is relatively high. The second metal line does not make any electrical connection to the pad so the bumps formed on the second metal line do not play a conductive role. When the substrate warps, the stress is transferred to the first protective layer. Thus, bumps in the substrate made according to the present application are coplanar, which reduces the probability of poor wetting when flip-chip package on the substrate, and improves the reliability of the entire package.

A semiconductor package using a coreless signal distribution structure (CSDS) is disclosed and may include a CSDS comprising at least one dielectric layer, at least one conductive layer, a first surface, and a second surface opposite to the first surface.

The semiconductor package may further include a metal post electrically coupled to the first surface of the CSDS, and a first encapsulant material encapsulating side surfaces and a surface opposite the first die surface of the first semiconductor die, the metal post, and a portion of the first surface of the CSDS.
