Abstract:
1. A device, comprising: a semiconductor chip comprising contact pads having an external surface at a first main face of the semiconductor chip; a dielectric layer disposed over the first main face of the semiconductor chip; insulating pads disposed in the dielectric layer and comprising a material having an elongation to break of greater than 35%, the material of the insulating pads being different from a material of the dielectric layer, the insulating pads and the dielectric layer covering the first main face of the semiconductor chip, wherein the insulating pads are arranged on the semiconductor chip in an array or other arrangement; an encapsulation body covering the semiconductor chip; a metal layer electrically coupled to the contact pads of the semiconductor chip and extending over the encapsulation body; and a plurality of solder deposits, wherein each of the insulating pads is arranged directly below each deposit of the plurality of solder deposits.
