A semiconductor device has a first semiconductor die and a modular interconnect structure adjacent to the first semiconductor die. An encapsulant is deposited over the first semiconductor die and modular interconnect structure as a reconstituted panel. An interconnect structure is formed over the first semiconductor die and modular interconnect structure. An active area of the first semiconductor die remains devoid of the interconnect structure. A second semiconductor die is mounted over the first semiconductor die with an active surface of the second semiconductor die oriented toward an active surface of the first semiconductor die. The reconstituted panel is singulated before or after mounting the second semiconductor die. The first or second semiconductor die includes a microelectromechanical system (MEMS). The second semiconductor die includes an encapsulant and an interconnect structure formed over the second semiconductor die.

A semiconductor wafer contains a plurality of semiconductor die separated by a saw street. An insulating layer is formed over the semiconductor wafer. A protective layer is formed over the insulating layer including an edge of the semiconductor die along the saw street. The protective layer covers an entire surface of the semiconductor wafer. Alternatively, an opening is formed in the protective layer over the saw street. The insulating layer has a non-planar surface and the protective layer has a planar surface. The semiconductor wafer is singulated through the protective layer and saw street to separate the semiconductor die while protecting the edge of the semiconductor die. Leading with the protective layer, the semiconductor die is mounted to a carrier. An encapsulant is deposited over the semiconductor die and carrier. The carrier and protective layer are removed. A build-up interconnect structure is formed over the semiconductor die and encapsulant.
