A method includes placing a package component over a carrier, encapsulating the package component in an encapsulant, and forming a connection structure over and electrically coupling to the package component. The formation of the connection structure includes forming a first via group over and electrically coupling to the package component, forming a first conductive trace over and contacting the first via group, forming a second via group overlying and contacting the first conductive trace, wherein each of the first via group and the second via group comprises a plurality of vias, forming a second conductive trace over and contacting the second via group, forming a top via overlying and contacting the second conductive trace, and forming an Under-Bump-Metallurgy (UBM) over and contacting the top via.

Semiconductor dice are arranged on a substrate such as a leadframe. Each semiconductor die is provided with electrically-conductive protrusions (such as electroplated pillars or bumps) protruding from the semiconductor die opposite the substrate. Laser direct structuring material is molded onto the substrate to cover the semiconductor dice arranged thereon, with the molding operation leaving a distal end of the electrically-conductive protrusion to be optically detectable at the surface of the laser direct structuring material. Laser beam processing the laser direct structuring material is then performed with laser beam energy applied at positions of the surface of the laser direct structuring material which are located by using the electrically-conductive protrusions optically detectable at the surface of the laser direct structuring material as a spatial reference.

A semiconductor package may include a substrate including a first coupling terminal and a second coupling terminal, a first chip disposed on the substrate, the first chip including a first pad and a second pad, and a connection structure connecting the first coupling terminal to the first pad. A portion of the connection structure may be in contact with a first side surface of the first chip. The connection structure may include a connection conductor electrically connecting the first pad to the first coupling terminal.

Flexible devices including conductive traces with enhanced stretchability, and methods of making and using the same are provided. The circuit die is disposed on a flexible substrate. Electrically conductive traces are formed in channels on the flexible substrate to electrically contact with contact pads of the circuit die. A first polymer liquid flows in the channels to cover a free surface of the traces. The circuit die can also be surrounded by a curing product of a second polymer liquid.

A semiconductor device comprises: one or more semiconductor dice arranged on a substrate such as a leadframe, an insulating encapsulation of, e.g., LDS material molded onto the semiconductor die or dice arranged on the substrate, the encapsulation having a surface opposite the substrate, and electrically conductive formations (e.g., die-to-lead 181, 182, 183 or die-to-die 201, 202) provided in the encapsulation and coupled to the semiconductor die or dice arranged on the substrate. A tape is laminated onto the surface of the encapsulation opposite the substrate and electrically conductive contacts to the electrically conductive formations extend through the tape laminated onto the encapsulation. The length of the electrically conductive contacts is thus reduced to the thickness of the tape laminated onto the encapsulation, thus facilitating producing, e.g., “vertical” MOSFET power devices having a reduced drain-source “on” resistance, RDS.sub.ON.

A display device includes a substrate, a plurality of first lines disposed on the substrate and spaced apart from each other, a plurality of second lines disposed on the substrate and disposed between the plurality of respective first lines, a plurality of light emitting elements disposed on the plurality of first lines and the plurality of second lines, and a plurality of third lines disposed on the plurality of light emitting elements.
