Embodiments that allow both high density and low density interconnection between microelectronic die and motherboard via. Direct Chip Attach (DCA) are described. In some embodiments, microelectronic die have a high density interconnect with a small bump pitch located along one edge and a lower density connection region with a larger bump pitch located in other regions of the die. The high density interconnect regions between die are interconnected using an interconnecting bridge made out of a material that can support high density interconnect manufactured into it, such as silicon. The lower density connection regions are used to attach interconnected die directly to a board using DCA. The high density interconnect can utilize current Controlled Collapsed Chip Connection (C4) spacing when interconnecting die with an interconnecting bridge, while allowing much larger spacing on circuit boards.

A three-dimensional fan-out integrated package structure, a packaging method thereof, and a wireless headset are disclosed. The three-dimensional fan-out integrated package structure includes a first rewiring layer, a second rewiring layer, a metal connection pillar, a first semiconductor chip, a second semiconductor chip, a first filler layer, a first encapsulating layer, a functional chip, a second filler layer, a second encapsulating layer, and metal bumps. By stacking two semiconductor chips, the structure can effectively reduce the packaging area and realize device packaging with high density and high integration, while enabling the minimum line width/line spacing to be reduced to 1.5 μm/1.5 μm. In addition, the three-dimensional fan-out integrated package structure can simultaneously integrate various functional chips and components such as GPU/PMU/DDR/mm-wave antenna/capacitor/inductor/transistor/flash memory/filter to realize system-level packaging, which not only can reduce cost but also improve the effectiveness of the package structure by using physical isolation to reduce device interference.
