Abstract
An example device includes: a semiconductor die formed on a semiconductor substrate and having a device side surface, a backside surface opposite the device side surface, and having sides between the device side surface and the backside surface at edges of the semiconductor die; the semiconductor die having a device area comprising electrical devices formed on the semiconductor die, and having a scribe spacing area between the device area and the edges of the semiconductor die; the semiconductor die having polymeric anchors in the scribe spacing area, the polymeric anchors being recesses that extend through a protective overcoat dielectric layer that is over the device side surface of the semiconductor die, and extending into the semiconductor substrate of the semiconductor die; and polymeric material covering at least a portion of the semiconductor die, the polymeric material filling the recesses of the polymeric anchors.
