Abstract:
A semiconductor device package, comprising:a semiconductor die with a plurality of bond pads arranged on an active surface thereof; a tape positioned over the active surface, the tape including at least one slot formed therethrough, each of the plurality of bond pads being exposed through the at least one slot, at least one end of the at least one slot extending beyond an outer periphery of the semiconductor die; a substrate element positioned over the tape opposite the semiconductor die, the substrate element including a plurality of contact areas, each contact area of the plurality corresponding to a bond pad of the plurality of bond pads and electrically connected thereto by way of an intermediate conductive element that extends through at least one opening formed through the substrate element and aligned with the at the least one slot of the tape, the substrate element further including a contact pad in communication with each contact area of the plurality of contact areas by way of a substantially laterally extending conductive trace; a quantity of encapsulant material substantially filling a volume defined by the at least one slot of the tape and the at least one opening of the substrate element; and a coverlay secured to a surface of the substrate element opposite the tape, the coverlay substantially covering at least the at least one opening through the substrate element, contact pads of the substrate element being exposed beyond or through the coverlay.
