Semiconductor package, package structure and fabrication method thereof

Abstract

A semiconductor package includes: a dielectric layer having opposite first and second surfaces; a semiconductor chip embedded in the dielectric layer and having a plurality of electrode pads; a plurality of first metal posts disposed on the electrode pads of the semiconductor chip, respectively, such that top ends of the first metal posts are exposed from the first surface; at least a second metal post penetrating the dielectric layer such that two opposite ends of the second metal post are exposed from the first and second surfaces, respectively; a first circuit layer formed on the first surface for electrically connecting the first and second metal posts; and a second circuit layer formed on the second surface for electrically connecting the second metal post. The semiconductor package dispenses with conventional laser ablation and electroplating processes for forming conductive posts in a molding compound, thereby saving fabrication time and cost.
