Embodiments of the inventive aspect include a method of manufacturing a semiconductor package including a plurality of stacked semiconductor chips in which edges of a semiconductor wafer substrate may be prevented from being damaged or cracked when the semiconductor package is manufactured at a wafer level, while a diameter of a molding element is greater than a diameter of the semiconductor wafer substrate. The molding element may cover a surface of the wafer substrate and the plurality of stacked semiconductor chips. Embodiments may include a wafer level semiconductor package including a circular substrate having a first diameter, a circular passivation layer attached to the circular substrate, the passivation layer having the first diameter, and a circular molding element covering surfaces of the plurality of semiconductor chips, and covering an active area of the substrate. The circular molding element may have a second diameter that is greater than the first diameter.
