Abstract
A method includes placing a plurality of functional dies over a carrier, placing a plurality of dummy dies over the carrier, encapsulating the plurality of functional dies and the plurality of dummy dies in an encapsulant, and forming redistribution lines over and interconnecting the plurality of functional dies. The redistribution lines, the plurality of functional dies, the plurality of dummy dies, and the encapsulant in combination form a reconstructed wafer. The plurality of functional dies are in a center region of the reconstructed wafer, and the plurality of dummy dies are in a peripheral region of the reconstructed wafer, with the peripheral region encircling the center region. The reconstructed wafer is de-bonded from the carrier. The reconstructed wafer is bonded to a package component selected from the group consisting essentially of an interposer, a package substrate, a printed circuit board, a thermal module, and combinations thereof.
