The first bridge structure 421 adopts the aforementioned specific structure, and while increasing the bandwidth (band-width) between adjacent chip modules 20, the first support layer 402 provides physical support for the first circuit layer 401 (because the thickness of the first circuit layer 401 is usually very thin and cannot be processed as a separate device), and protects the first circuit layer 401 from failures such as disconnection due to warping; and the first support layer 402 can also reduce the amount of the first plastic layer 111 formed on the upper surface of the rewiring layer 104, thereby increasing the Si / EMC ratio in the wafer-scale system-level packaging structure (the first support layer 402 is equivalent to Si), thereby reducing the overall warping of the wafer-scale system-level packaging structure due to the small Si / EMC ratio.

[0068] In one embodiment, the system-level packaging structure further includes: edge dummy devices 301 of different sizes mounted on the upper surface of the edge region 12 of the rewiring layer 104 outside the chip module 20 array 11. Mounting a number of edge dummy devices 301 of different sizes on the upper surface of the edge region 12 of the rewiring layer 104 reduces the amount of the first plastic encapsulation layer 111 on the upper surface of the edge region 12 of the rewiring layer 104, thereby increasing the Si / EMC ratio of the edge region 12 (EMC is a plastic encapsulation material, and the edge dummy devices 301 are equivalent to Si), thereby reducing the difference between the Si / EMC ratio of the edge region 12 and the Si / EMC ratio of the middle region 11, thereby effectively regulating the warpage of the system packaging structure of the wafer-level super-large core module at room temperature or high temperature. In another embodiment, refer to Fig.11 or Fig.12 In addition to mounting edge dummy devices 301 of different sizes on the upper surface of the edge region 12 of the rewiring layer 104 outside the chip module 20 array 11, edge dummy devices 301 of different sizes are also mounted on the lower surface of the edge region 12 of the rewiring layer 104 outside the chip module 20 array 11.

The upper surface of the edge area 12 is fully mounted with the edge dummy device 301, so as to further reduce the material of the first plastic encapsulation layer 111 on the edge area 12, thereby further increasing the Si / EMC ratio of the edge area 12 of the redistribution layer 104, thereby further reducing the difference between the Si / EMC ratio of the edge area 12 and the Si / EMC ratio of the middle area 11, which is conducive to better suppressing the warping of the wafer-scale system-level packaging structure.
