Abstract

A package structure includes an insulating encapsulation, at least one first chip, a redistribution layer and a bonding layer. The at least one first chip is encapsulated in the insulating encapsulation. The redistribution layer is located on the insulating encapsulation and the at least one first chip and electrically connected to the at least one first chip. The bonding layer mechanically connects the redistribution layer and the at least one first chip.
