Abstract:
A semiconductor wafer contains a plurality of semiconductor die each having a plurality of contact pads. A sacrificial adhesive is deposited over the contact pads. Alternatively, the sacrificial adhesive is deposited over the carrier. An underfill material can be formed between the contact pads. The semiconductor wafer is singulated to separate the semiconductor die. The semiconductor die is mounted to a temporary carrier such that the sacrificial adhesive is disposed between the contact pads and temporary carrier. An encapsulant is deposited over the semiconductor die and carrier. The carrier and sacrificial adhesive is removed to leave a via over the contact pads. An interconnect structure is formed over the encapsulant. The interconnect structure includes a conductive layer which extends into the via for electrical connection to the contact pads. The semiconductor die is offset from the interconnect structure by a height of the sacrificial adhesive.

Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a base substrate with first and second etch-resistant conductive layers formed over opposing surfaces of the base substrate. First cavities are etched in the base substrate through an opening in the first conductive layer. The first cavities have a width greater than a width of the opening in the first conductive layer. Second cavities are etched in the base substrate between portions of the first or second conductive layer. A semiconductor die is mounted over the base substrate with bumps disposed over the first conductive layer. The bumps are reflowed to electrically connect to the first conductive layer and cause bump material to flow into the first cavities. An encapsulant is deposited over the die and base substrate. A portion of the base substrate is removed down to the second cavities to form electrically isolated base leads between the first and second conductive layers.
