INTEGRATED CIRCUIT PACKAGE FORMATION
First Claim
1. A method for making an integrated circuit package comprising:
- providing a panel attached to a carrier, the panel including a first major surface attached to the carrier, the panel including a plurality of integrated circuit chips encapsulated with an encapsulant;
forming at least one interconnect layer on a second major surface of the panel, the second major surface being an opposite surface to the first major surface, the panel being supported by the carrier during the forming;
laser cutting the panel into a plurality of integrated circuit packages after the forming, the panel being supported by the carrier during the laser cutting, wherein each integrated circuit package includes at least one integrated circuit chip of the plurality of integrated circuits chips;
removing the plurality of integrated circuit packages from the carrier after the laser cutting.

Abstract
Integrated circuit packages are formed from a panel where the panel is separated by laser cutting the panel. In some embodiments, the panel is attached to the carrier for the formation of interconnect layers on the panel. Afterwards, the panel is cut with a laser while on the carrier to separate the integrated circuit packages. A tape or other type of structure may be attached to the top of the packages after the laser cutting. The integrated circuit packages are removed from the carrier by releasing the adhesive and removing the integrated circuit packages with the tape. The packages are then removed from the tape.
