A microelectronic package can include a substrate having first and second opposed surfaces, at least two pairs of microelectronic elements, and a plurality of terminals exposed at the second surface. Each pair of microelectronic elements can include an upper microelectronic element and a lower microelectronic element. The pairs of microelectronic elements can be fully spaced apart from one another in a horizontal direction parallel to the first surface of the substrate. Each lower microelectronic element can have a front surface facing the first surface of the substrate and a plurality of contacts at the front surface. A surface of each of the upper microelectronic elements can at least partially overlie a rear surface of the lower microelectronic element in its pair. The microelectronic package can also include electrical connections extending from at least some of the contacts of each lower microelectronic element to at least some of the terminals.
