Abstract

Disclosed is a method for forming an EMI shielding layer on all surfaces of a semiconductor package in order to enhance EMI shielding effect on all surfaces and to prevent electrical short to external terminals of the semiconductor package. According to the method, a temporary protective layer is formed on the external terminals where the temporary protective layer is further in contact with a plurality of annular surface regions of the semiconductor package surrounding and adjacent to the external terminals. Then, the EMI shielding layer is formed on the top surface, the bottom surface and the side surfaces of the semiconductor package without forming on the external terminals.
