Abstract

A method of making a semiconductor device comprises the steps of providing a first manufacturing line, providing a second manufacturing line, and forming a first redistribution interconnect structure using the first manufacturing line while simultaneously forming a second redistribution interconnect structure using the second manufacturing line. The method further includes the steps of testing a first unit of the first redistribution interconnect structure to determine a first known good unit (KGU), disposing a known good semiconductor die (KGD) over the first KGU of the first redistribution interconnect structure, testing a unit of the second redistribution interconnect structure to determine a second known good unit (KGU, and disposing the second KGU of the second redistribution interconnect structure over the first KGU of the first redistribution interconnect structure and the KGD. A resolution of the second manufacturing line is greater than a resolution of the first manufacturing line.
