    Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly that includes first and second semiconductor devices connected directly to a first side of a substrate and a plurality of interconnects connected to a second side of the substrate. The substrate is configured to enable the first and second semiconductor devices to communicate with each other through the substrate. The substrate may be a silicon substrate that includes complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) circuits. The first semiconductor device may be a processing unit and the second semiconductor device may be a memory device, which may be a high bandwidth memory device. A method of making a semiconductor device assembly includes applying CMOS processing to a silicon substrate, forming back end of line (BEOL) layers on a first side of the substrate, attaching a memory device and a processing unit directly to the BEOL layers, and forming a redistribution layer on the second side of the substrate.

    Abstract: A method for smoothing structures formed of curable materials on a semiconductor device includes applying a layer of photo-responsive material on a substrate. The photo-responsive material is exposed to ultraviolet light through a grayscale gradient mask. Subsequent to removing unwanted portions of the photo-responsive material, the photo-responsive material that remains on the substrate is cured. During the curing process, the temperature is increased from a starting temperature to a final cure temperature over a first time period that allows the photo-responsive material to cross-flow. The temperature of the photo-responsive material is maintained at approximately the final cure temperature for a second time period, and then the temperature of the photo-responsive material is decreased to a predetermined finish temperature over a third time period.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly can include a semiconductor device having a substrate and vias electrically connected to circuitry of the semiconductor device. Individual vias can have an embedded portion extending from the first side to the second side of the substrate and an exposed portion projecting from the second side of the substrate. The assembly can include a density-conversion connector comprising a connector substrate and a first array of contacts formed at the first side thereof, the first array of contacts occupying a first footprint area on the first side thereof, and wherein individual contacts of the first array are electrically connected to the exposed portion of a corresponding via of the semiconductor device. The assembly can include a second array of contacts electrically connected to the first array, formed at the second side of the connector substrate, and occupying a second footprint area larger than the first footprint area.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device assembly can include a first semiconductor device and an interposer. The interposer can include a substrate and through vias in which individual vias include an exposed portion and an embedded portion, the exposed portions projecting from one or both of the first surface and the second surface of the substrate, and the embedded portions extending through at least a portion of the substrate. The interposer can include one or more test pads, a first electrical contact, and a second electrical contact. The semiconductor device assembly can include a controller positioned on an opposite side of the interposer from the first semiconductor device and operably coupled to the interposer via connection to the second electrical contact.
