Packages for semiconductor devices, packaged semiconductor devices, and methods of packaging semiconductor devices are disclosed. In some embodiments, a package for a semiconductor device includes an integrated circuit die mounting region, a molding material around the integrated circuit die mounting region, and an interconnect structure over the molding material and the integrated circuit die mounting region. The interconnect structure has contact pads, and connectors are coupled to the contact pads. Two or more of the connectors have an alignment feature formed thereon.

Aspects of the invention include a method of tuning an interconnect that couples a first structure that is a first integrated circuit or a first laminate structure to a second structure that is a second integrated circuit or a second laminate structure. The method includes obtaining a compression requirement for a spring in a compliant layer of the interconnect. A longer path length of the spring leads to greater compression and mechanical support. Current and signal speed requirements for the interconnect are obtained. A shorter path length of the spring leads to greater current-carrying capacity and greater signal speed. Specifications for the spring are determined based on the compression requirement and the current and signal speed requirements. Determining the specifications includes determining a number of active coils of the spring to be less than two.
