    Abstract: Semiconductor devices having reinforcement structures configured to mitigate thermomechanical stresses, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a semiconductor package includes a semiconductor die and a substrate coupled to the semiconductor die. The substrate can include a base structure and a reinforcement structure at least partially within a die shadow region of the substrate. The reinforcement structure can be at least partially surrounded by the base structure. The reinforcement structure has a higher stiffness than the base structure.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure configure a processor to detect faults in a printed circuit board (PCB) solder mask using an optical waveguide. The processor directs an optical beam to an input of one or more optical waveguides embedded in a protective coating layer of a PCB, the protective coating layer being adjacent to one or more traces of the PCB. The processor measures a beam characteristic of the optical beam that is output by the one or more optical waveguides. The processor detects a disruption of the optical beam that is output by the one or more optical waveguides based on the beam characteristic. The processor detects a fault in the protective coating layer of the PCB based on detecting the disruption of the optical beam that is output by the one or more optical waveguides.

    Abstract: Semiconductor devices having interconnect structures with conductive elements configured to mitigate thermomechanical stresses, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a semiconductor package includes a semiconductor die and a pillar structure coupled to the semiconductor die. The pillar structure can include a plurality of conductive elements made of a first conductive material having a first elastic modulus. The pillar structure can further include a continuous region of a second conductive material at least partially surrounding the plurality of conductive elements. The second conductive material can have a second elastic modulus less than the first elastic modulus.

    Abstract: Stacked semiconductor die assemblies with heat sinks and associated methods and systems are disclosed. In some embodiments, a controller carrying one or more memory dies may be attached to a front side of a substrate. The substrate may include a heat sink formed on its back side such that the heat sink can establish a thermal contact with the controller. Further, the heat sink may be coupled to a thermally conductive pad of a printed circuit board (PCB) that carries the substrate. In this manner, the controller may be provided with a heat path toward the PCB to dissipate thermal energy generated during operation. In some cases, the substrate may include a set of thermal vias extending from the heat sink toward the controller to enhance the thermal contact between the controller and the heat sink.
