Abstract:
Methods of forming packages include forming an encapsulant laterally encapsulating a die over an active surface of the die. The active surface has an electrical pad. A first opening is formed through the encapsulant to the electrical pad. In some embodiments the first opening is formed using a photolithographic technique. In some embodiments the first opening is formed using a temporary pillar by forming the temporary pillar over the electrical pad, forming the encapsulant, and then exposing and removing the temporary pillar. A conductive pattern is formed over the encapsulant including a via formed in the first opening to the electrical pad of the die's active surface. In some embodiments, a dielectric layer is formed over the encapsulant, and the conductive pattern is over the dielectric layer. Embodiments may include forming additional dielectric layers and conductive patterns.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 6 , wherein the second opening has sidewalls that are not perpendicular to a top surface of the die.
