Abstract

A semiconductor device has an interposer frame mounted over a carrier. A semiconductor die has an active surface and bumps formed over the active surface. The semiconductor die can be mounted within a die opening of the interposer frame or over the interposer frame. Stacked semiconductor die can also be mounted within the die opening of the interposer frame or over the interposer frame. Bond wires or bumps are formed between the semiconductor die and interposer frame. An encapsulant is deposited over the interposer frame and semiconductor die. An interconnect structure is formed over the encapsulant and bumps of the first semiconductor die. An electronic component, such as a discrete passive device, semiconductor die, or stacked semiconductor die, is mounted over the semiconductor die and interposer frame. The electronic component has an I/O count less than an I/O count of the semiconductor die.

Claims (12)

1. A semiconductor device, comprising:

an interposer frame including a die opening formed completely through the interposer frame;

a first semiconductor die disposed within the die opening of the interposer frame with a first surface of the first semiconductor die coplanar with a first surface of the interposer frame and a conductive bump formed on a second surface of the first semiconductor die; and

a first interconnect structure formed between the first semiconductor die and interposer frame.

2. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , further including an encapsulant deposited over the interposer frame and first semiconductor die.

3. The semiconductor device of claim 2 , further including a third interconnect structure formed over the encapsulant.

4. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the first interconnect structure includes a bump or bond wire.

5. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , further including a second semiconductor die disposed over the first semiconductor die.

6. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , further including an electronic component disposed over the first semiconductor die.

7. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the first interconnect structure includes a bond wire.

8. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the conductive bump extends over a second surface of the interposer frame opposite the first surface of the interposer frame.

9. The semiconductor device of claim 1 , wherein the first semiconductor die is disposed outside a footprint of the interposer frame.
