1. A semiconductor component comprising:
a substrate having a chip side, a solder ball side, and a bonding channel;
a semiconductor chip mounted on the chip side of the substrate;
a plurality of solder ball pads disposed on the solder ball side of the substrate;
a plurality of electrical connections extending through the bonding channel and electrically connected between the semiconductor chip and the solder ball pads; and
an encapsulation material covering the electrical connections within the bonding channel, wherein the encapsulation material extends within a surface of the substrate, and wherein the surface of the substrate includes at least one depression on the solder ball side adjacent the bonding channel, the encapsulation material extending within the depressions, wherein the at least one depression comprises at least one groove running around the bonding channel.
