Abstract:
1. A method of making a semiconductor device, comprising: providing a semiconductor wafer containing a plurality of semiconductor die separated by a plurality of saw streets; singulating the semiconductor wafer through a portion of the saw streets to form a plurality of separate wafer sections each including multiple semiconductor die attached by uncut saw streets; disposing the wafer sections in a grid pattern with each wafer section separate from an adjacent wafer section to provide an interconnect area between the wafer sections; depositing an encapsulant between the wafer sections in the interconnect area; forming a first interconnect structure over the wafer sections and encapsulant in the interconnect area; and singulating the wafer sections and interconnect area to separate the semiconductor die each with a portion of the first interconnect structure and an exposed side surface of the semiconductor die.
