摘要： A semiconductor structure includes multiple semiconductor devices on a substrate and a metal layer disposed over the semiconductor devices, the metal layer comprising at least a first trace and a second trace. A conductive pillar is disposed directly on and in electrical contact with the first trace of the metal layer, and a dielectric layer is selectively disposed between the metal layer and the conductive pillar, where the dielectric layer electrically isolates the second trace from the pillar. A moisture barrier surrounds the semiconductor devices around a periphery of the semiconductor structure, and extends from the substrate through the dielectric layer to the conductive pillar.
