Abstract:
1. An apparatus, comprising: a substrate having one or more bond pad terminals for receiving electrical connections on at least one surface; an encapsulation layer covering the at least one surface of the substrate and having a first thickness; a plurality of through vias extending through the encapsulation layer and positioned in correspondence with at least one of the one or more bond pad terminals; conductor material disposed within the plurality of through vias to form electrical connectors within the plurality of through vias; at least one external terminal disposed on a surface of the encapsulation layer, electrically coupled to one of the one or more bond pad terminals by an electrical connector in at least one of the plurality of through vias; and an integrated circuit die mounted on the at least one surface of the substrate and having a face surface and vertical sides coated by the encapsulation layer, the plurality of through vias extending through the encapsulation layer and spaced from the integrated circuit die.
