Patent ID: 8895440

Claim:
A method of making a semiconductor device, comprising: providing a semiconductor wafer containing semiconductor material including a plurality of conductive through silicon vias formed through the semiconductor material of the semiconductor wafer; cutting channels through the semiconductor wafer to provide a plurality of wafer segments including the conductive through silicon vias; disposing a first semiconductor die over a wafer segment from the plurality of wafer segments; depositing an encapsulant over the first semiconductor die and wafer segment; forming a first via through the encapsulant to expose a conductive through silicon via of the wafer segment; forming a second via through the encapsulant and over a contact pad of the first semiconductor die; depositing an electrically conductive material in the first and second vias during a same manufacturing step to form a first conductive through mold via extending through the encapsulant to the exposed conductive through silicon via and a second conductive through mold via extending through the encapsulant to the first semiconductor die; forming a conductive layer over the encapsulant electrically connected to the first and second conductive through mold vias; and forming an insulating layer over the encapsulant and conductive layer.
