1. A semiconductor device comprising:
a substrate having a top substrate side, a bottom substrate side, and lateral substrate sides extending between the top and bottom substrate sides, the substrate comprising a top side pad, a bottom side pad, and one or more conductive paths that electrically coupled the top side pad to the bottom side pad;
a semiconductor die having a top die side, a bottom die side, and lateral die sides extending between the top and bottom die sides, wherein the bottom die side is coupled to the top substrate side;
a metal pillar having a top pillar end, a bottom pillar end, and a lateral pillar side extending between the top and bottom pillar ends, wherein:
the metal pillar is positioned laterally outside a region of the top substrate side covered by the semiconductor die;
at least a portion of the metal pillar is positioned directly lateral to the semiconductor die;
the bottom pillar end is lower than the bottom die side;
the bottom pillar end is coupled to the top side pad of the substrate with an adhesion member; and
an encapsulating material laterally adjacent the lateral die sides and the lateral pillar side; and
a mold material that directly contacts a widest portion of the lateral pillar side, wherein the mold material directly contacts the encapsulating material.
