Abstract
A system and method for chip package fabrication is disclosed. The chip package includes a base re-distribution layer having an opening formed therein, an adhesive layer having a window formed therein free of adhesive material, and a die affixed to the base re-distribution layer by way of the adhesive layer, the die being aligned with the window such that only a perimeter of the die contacts the adhesive layer. A shield element is positioned between the base re-distribution layer and adhesive layer that is generally aligned with the opening formed in the base re-distribution layer and the window of the adhesive layer such that only a perimeter of the shield element is attached to the adhesive layer. The shield element is separated from the die by an air gap and is configured to be selectively removable from the adhesive layer so as to expose the front surface of the die.
