Abstract

A semiconductor wafer contains semiconductor die separated by saw streets. The semiconductor wafer is singulated through a portion of the saw streets to form wafer sections each having multiple semiconductor die per wafer section attached by uncut saw streets. Each wafer section has at least two semiconductor die. The wafer sections are mounted over a temporary carrier in a grid pattern to reserve an interconnect area between the wafer sections. An encapsulant is deposited over the wafer sections and interconnect area. A conductive pillar can be formed in the encapsulant over the interconnect area. An interconnect structure is formed over the wafer sections and encapsulant in the interconnect area. The wafer sections and interconnect area are singulated to separate the semiconductor die each with a portion of the interconnect area. A heat sink or shielding layer can be formed over the wafer sections.
