A method includes forming an insulating layer over a package. The package has a plurality of locations where openings are subsequently formed. A first laser shot is performed, location by location, on each of the locations across the package. A first laser spot of the first laser shot overlaps with each of the locations. The first laser shot removes a first portion of the insulating layer below the first laser spot. Another laser shot is performed, location by location, on each of the locations across the package. Another laser spot of the another laser shot overlaps with each of the locations. The another laser shot removes another portion of the insulating layer below the another laser spot. Performing the another laser shot, location by location, on each of the locations across the package is repeated multiple times, until desired portions of the insulating layer are removed.
