Implementations of a semiconductor package may include a die; a first pad and a second pad, the first pad and the second pad each including a first layer and a second layer where the second layer may be thicker than the first layer. At least a first conductor may be directly coupled to the second layer of the first pad; at least a second conductor may be directly coupled to the second layer of the second pad; and an organic material may cover at least the first side of the die. The at least first conductor and the at least second conductor extend through openings in the organic material where a spacing between the at least first conductor and the at least second conductor may be wider than a spacing between the second layer of the first pad and the second layer of the second pad.

Embodiments are directed to a method of forming a semiconductor chip package and resulting structures having an annular PSPI region formed under a BLM pad. An annular region is formed under a barrier layer metallurgy (BLM) pad. The annular region includes a photosensitive polyimide (PSPI). A conductive pedestal is formed on a surface of the BLM pad and a solder bump is formed on a surface of the conductive pedestal. The annular PSPI region reduces wafer warpage and ULK peeling stress.
