1. An apparatus, comprising:
a semiconductor die mounted to a die pad of a package substrate, the semiconductor die having bond pads on a device side surface facing away from the die pad;
bond wires coupling the bond pads of the semiconductor die to leads of the package substrate, the leads spaced from the die pad;
an antenna positioned over the device side surface of the semiconductor die and having a feed line coupled between the antenna and the device side surface of the semiconductor die; and
mold compound covering the semiconductor die, the bond wires, a portion of the leads, and a portion of the die pad, the mold compound forming four side surfaces of the apparatus, wherein a portion of the antenna is coplanar to a plane along one of the four side surfaces of the apparatus.
