Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, semiconductor dies on the substrate, molding compound and a reinforcing layer suspended within the molding compound. The reinforcing layer may for example be a copper foil formed in the molding compound over the semiconductor dies during the compression molding process. The reinforcing layer may have a structural rigidity which provides additional strength to the semiconductor device. The reinforcing layer may also be formed of a thermal conductor to draw heat away from a controller die within the semiconductor device.
