A semiconductor package includes a semiconductor substrate, a contact pad overlying the semiconductor substrate, an interconnect layer overlying the contact pad, a passivation layer formed between the contact pad and the interconnect layer, a bump overlying the interconnect layer, and a protection layer overlying the interconnect layer and the passivation layer and covering a lower portion of the bump. The protection layer includes a curved surface region.

Methods and apparatuses for wafer level packaging (WLP) of semiconductor devices are disclosed. A contact pad of a circuit may be connected to a solder bump by way of a post passivation interconnect (PPI) line and a PPI pad. The PPI pad may comprise a hollow part and an opening. The PPI pad may be formed together with the PPI line as one piece. The hollow part of the PPI pad can function to control the amount of solder flux used in the ball mounting process so that any extra amount of solder flux can escape from an opening of the solid part of the PPI pad. A solder ball can be mounted to the PPI pad directly without using any under bump metal (UBM) as a normal WLP package would need.

A method includes forming an electrical connector over a substrate of a wafer, and molding a polymer layer, with at least a portion of the electrical connector molded in the polymer layer. A first sawing step is performed to form a trench in the polymer layer. After the first sawing step, a second sawing step is performed to saw the wafer into a plurality of dies.

Methods and apparatuses for wafer level packaging (WLP) semiconductor devices are disclosed. A redistribution layer (RDL) is formed on a first passivation layer in contact with a conductive pad over a surface of a die. The RDL layer is on top of a first region of the first passivation layer. A second passivation layer is formed on the RDL layer with an opening to expose the RDL layer, and over the first passivation layer. An under bump metallization (UBM) layer is formed over the second passivation layer in contact with the exposed RDL layer. A second region of the first passivation layer disjoint from the first region is determined by projecting an outer periphery of a solder ball or other connector onto the surface.

A test board includes a first chip mounting area, a first input area, a second input area, a first output area, and a second output area. The test board also includes a first conductive pattern, a second conductive pattern, a third conductive pattern, and a fourth conductive pattern. The first conductive pattern electrically connects a first pin of the first input area and a first pin of the first chip mounting area. The second conductive pattern electrically connects a first pin of the second input area and a second pin of the first chip mounting area. The third conductive pattern electrically connects a first pin of the first output area and a third pin of the first chip mounting area. The fourth conductive pattern electrically connects a first pin of the second output area and a fourth pin of the first chip mounting area.
