Zusammenfassung:A method of forming a semiconductor device is disclosed including through-package debug features enabling debug of a BGA package while mounted to a printed circuit board or other host device. In one example, the through-package debug features are filled or plated vias extending from a surface of the semiconductor device, through a device housing, down to test pads on the substrate. In another example, the through-package debug features are open channels formed from a surface of the semiconductor device.
