Abstract

A method of detecting delamination in an integrated circuit package structure, the method includes forming a plurality of through vias over a carrier substrate; placing a device die over the carrier substrate and between the through vias, wherein the device die comprises a metal pillar; forming a molding material surrounding the device die and the through vias; forming a testing metal line extending along a top surface of the molding material and past an interface between the device die and the molding material; applying a current to the testing metal line; detecting an electrical signal of the testing metal line during the applying the current to the testing metal line; and determining, based on the detected electrical signal of the testing metal line, whether a delamination occurs between the device die and the molding material.
