Abstract:
1. A semiconductor device comprising: a carrier; a first chip attached to the carrier; a dielectric layer entirely covering the first chip and the carrier, the dielectric layer structured with at least one opening therein aligned with a contact pad of the first chip and at least one opening therein aligned with a contact pad of the carrier; and a conducting element disposed on and extending over the structured dielectric, including over the first chip and over the carrier, and disposed within the structured openings so as to be electrically connect to the contact pad of the first chip and to the contact pad of the carrier, the conducting element comprising a sintered conducting element, wherein the conducting element has a thickness, in a direction perpendicular to the carrier, which is in a range from 1 to 5 micrometers and which is less than a thickness of the first chip.
