## Abstract

A wafer system-level three-dimensional fan-out packaging structure and a manufacturing method therefor. The method includes: forming a redistribution layer, where the redistribution layer includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other; forming a conductive connecting post on the second surface of the redistribution layer; bonding the patch element to the second surface of the redistribution layer; forming a plastic packaging layer on the second surface of the redistribution layer; thinning the plastic packaging layer; forming a plurality of solder bumps on a side of the plastic packaging layer that faces away from the redistribution layer; cutting the redistribution layer and the plastic packaging layer to obtain a number of first package structures; and bonding a second package layer to the first surface of the redistribution layer of one of the first package structures.
