Patent ID: 8531015

Claim:
A method of making a semiconductor device, comprising: providing a substrate; forming a conductive via in a first surface of the substrate and extending only partially through the substrate; forming a first interconnect structure over the first surface of the substrate by, (a) forming a first conductive layer over the first surface of the substrate, and (b) forming a first insulating layer over the first conductive layer and substrate; forming a first bump over the first conductive layer; depositing an encapsulant over the first bump and first interconnect structure; removing a portion of the encapsulant to expose a portion of the first bump; forming a second bump over the portion of the first bump exposed through the encapsulant; removing a portion of a second surface of the substrate, opposite the first surface of the substrate, to expose the conductive via; and forming a second interconnect structure over the second surface of the substrate and electrically connected to the conductive via.
