Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a first semiconductor die or component having a plurality of bumps, and a plurality of first and second contact pads. In one embodiment, the first and second contact pads include wettable contact pads. The bumps are mounted directly to a first surface of the first contact pads to align the first semiconductor die or component. An encapsulant is deposited over the first semiconductor die or component. An interconnect structure is formed over the encapsulant and is connected to a second surface of the first and second contact pads opposite the first surface of the first contact pads. A plurality of vias is formed through the encapsulant and extends to a first surface of the second contact pads. A conductive material is deposited in the vias to form a plurality of conductive vias that are aligned by the second contact pads to reduce interconnect pitch.
