Abstract
A method of fabricating a high density electronic package is disclosed. The package includes a module of laminated semiconductor chips, including spare chip(s) and a supporting substrate with a fixed interconnect pattern. Chip connection pads are provided at a first pad level of the module; one or more pads corresponding to each chip in the module. The module is tested at the first pad level to identify defective chip(s). A spare routing pattern is applied to the module for electrically isolating defective chip(s) and effectively substituting spare chip(s) therefor such that a predetermined pattern of metal interconnect landings on an access surface of the module remains unchanged, as does the supporting substrate.
