Patent ID: 8859340

Claim:
A method for fabricating a molded interposer package, comprising: providing a metal sheet having a top surface and a bottom surface; performing a first anisotropic etching process to remove a portion of the metal sheet from the top surface of the metal sheet, thereby forming a plurality of first recesses in the metal sheet; mounting a carrier on the top surface of the metal sheet, covering the first recesses; performing a second anisotropic etching process to remove a portion of the metal sheet under the first recesses from the bottom surface of the metal sheet, thereby forming a plurality of second recesses in the metal sheet, wherein the first recesses and the second recesses communicate with each other, respectively; filling a molding material from the bottom surface of the metal sheet, leaving the bottom surface of the metal sheet exposed; removing the carrier; forming a passivation layer on the top surface of the metal sheet, having a plurality of openings therethrough; forming a plurality of first metal vias through the opening; and forming a solder mask layer on the passivation layer, leaving the first metal vias exposed.
