Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a semiconductor package comprising a redistribution substrate, and a semiconductor chip on a top surface of the redistribution substrate. The redistribution substrate includes an under-bump pattern, a lower dielectric layer that covers a sidewall of the under-bump pattern, and a first redistribution pattern on the lower dielectric layer. The first redistribution pattern includes a first line part. A width at a top surface of the under-bump pattern is greater than a width at a bottom surface of the under-bump pattern. A thickness of the under-bump pattern is greater than a thickness of the first line part.
