Abstract
An embodiment is a method including depositing a first dielectric layer over a molding compound and a chip and patterning a first opening in the first dielectric layer to expose a contact of the chip. A first metallization layer is deposited over the first dielectric layer and in the first opening, where a portion of the first metallization layer in the first opening has a flat top. A second dielectric layer is deposited over the first metallization layer and the first dielectric layer. A second metallization layer is deposited in a second opening in the second dielectric layer, where the second metallization layer does not have a flat top within the second opening.
