Abstract
A semiconductor device is made from a semiconductor wafer containing semiconductor die separated by a peripheral region. A conductive via-in-via structure is formed in the peripheral region or through an active region of the device to provide additional tensile strength. The conductive via-in-via structure includes an inner conductive via and outer conductive via separated by insulating material. A middle conductive via can be formed between the inner and outer conductive vias. The inner conductive via has a first cross-sectional area adjacent to a first surface of the semiconductor device and a second cross-sectional area adjacent to a second surface of the semiconductor device. The outer conductive via has a first cross-sectional area adjacent to the first surface of the semiconductor device and a second cross-sectional area adjacent to the second surface of the semiconductor device. The first cross-sectional area is different from the second cross-sectional area.
