Abstract
A semiconductor module comprises components in one wafer level package. The module comprises an integrated circuit (IC) chip embedded within a package molding compound. The package comprises a molding compound package layer coupled to an interface layer for integrating an antenna structure and a bonding interconnect structure to the IC chip. The bonding interconnect structure comprises three dimensional interconnects. The antenna structure and bonding interconnect structure are coupled to the IC chip and integrated within the interface layer in the same wafer fabrication process.
