US Patent 10319639 Thin semiconductor package and related methods

Implementations of a method of forming a semiconductor package may include forming a plurality of notches into a first side of a wafer, the first side of the wafer including a plurality of electrical contacts. The method may also include coating the first side of the wafer and an interior of the plurality of notches with a molding compound, grinding a second side of the wafer to thin the wafer to a desired thickness, forming a back metal on a second side of the wafer, exposing the plurality of electrical contacts through grinding a first side of the molding compound, and singulating the wafer at the plurality of notches to form a plurality of semiconductor packages.
