Abstract
A semiconductor package includes a substrate, a grounding layer, a chip, a package body, and a shielding layer. The substrate includes a lateral surface and a bottom surface. The grounding layer is buried in the substrate and extends horizontally in the substrate. The chip is arranged on the substrate. The package body envelops the chip and includes a lateral surface. The shielding layer covers the lateral surface of the package body and the lateral surface of the substrate, and is electrically connected to the grounding layer, where a bottom surface of the shielding layer is separated from a bottom surface of the substrate.
