Abstract
A wafer level package that incorporates dual stress buffer layers for achieving I/O pad redistribution and a method for forming the package are disclosed. In the package, a first stress buffer layer and a second stress buffer layer are sequentially deposited on top of an IC die by a method such as spin coating, laminating, screen printing or stencil printing of an elastic material which has a Young's modulus of less than 10 MPa. A suitable thickness for the first and the second stress buffer layer is between about 10 &mgr;m and about 70 &mgr;m. Metal traces are formed on top of the first and the second stress buffer layer for connecting a first plurality of I/O pads and a second plurality of I/O pads to achieve I/O redistribution.
