Abstract
An embodiment device includes a die, a molding compound extending along sidewalls of the die, and a first polymer layer over the die and the molding compound. The first polymer layer has a first lateral dimension. The device further includes a second polymer layer over the first polymer layer. The second polymer layer has a second lateral dimension, where the second lateral dimension is less than the first lateral dimension.

-14. (canceled)
A method comprising:
- patterning a first portion of a scribe line in a first polymer layer;
- forming a redistribution line (RDL) over the first polymer layer;
- forming a second polymer layer over the RDL and the first polymer layer;
- and
- patterning a second portion of the scribe line in the second polymer layer, wherein the first and the second portions are connected, and wherein the second portion of the scribe line is wider than the first portion of the scribe line.

A method comprising:
- providing a first die, a second die, and a molding compound disposed between the first die and the second die;
- forming a first polymer layer over the first die and the second die;
- patterning a first opening in the first polymer layer using a photolithography process, wherein the first opening is disposed directly over the molding compound;
- after patterning the first opening, curing the first polymer layer;
- forming a second polymer layer over the first polymer layer;
