Abstract

A semiconductor package includes a connection structure including an insulating layer, a redistribution layer disposed on the insulating layer, and a connection via penetrating through the insulating layer and connected to the redistribution layer, a frame disposed on the connection structure and having a through-hole, a semiconductor chip disposed in the through-hole on the connection structure and having a connection pad disposed to face the connection structure, and a passive component disposed on the frame.
