A method of producing packaged semiconductor devices includes providing a first packaging substrate panel. A second packaging substrate panel is provided. The first and second packaging substrate panels are moved through an assembly line that includes a plurality of package assembly tools using a control mechanism. First type packaged semiconductor devices are formed on the first packaging substrate panel and second type packaged semiconductor devices are formed on the second packaging substrate panel. The second type packaged semiconductor device is different than the first type packaged semiconductor device. The control mechanism moves both of the first and packaging substrate panels through the assembly line in a non-linear manner.

Abstract:
A semiconductor module having one or more integrated antennas in a single package is provided herein. The semiconductor module has a bonding interconnect structure that connects an integrated package to a printed circuit board (PCB), wherein the integrated antenna structures are located at greater center-to-center distance from the IC device than the three dimensional interconnect structures. Therefore, the bonding interconnect structures are confined to a connection area that causes a part of the package containing the one or more antenna structures to extend beyond the bonding interconnect structure as a cantilevered structure. Such a bonding interconnect structure result in a package that is in contact with a PCB at a relatively small area that supports the load of the package.
