A stacked microelectronic assembly includes a dielectric element and a first and second microelectronic element stacked one atop the other with the first microelectronic element disposed between the second microelectronic element and the dielectric. The dielectric element has opposed first and second surfaces with conductive features exposed at the first surface and terminals exposed on the second surface. Preferably, the contact-bearing face of the first microelectronic element confronts the first surface of the dielectric with at least some of the conductive features being movable with respect to the contacts or terminals. By providing such movable features, joining units have heights of about 300 microns or less may be joined to the terminals thereby reducing the overall height of the microelectronic assembly to 1.2 mm and less.

A microelectronic package can include wire bonds having bases bonded to respective ones of conductive elements exposed at a surface of a substrate. The wire bonds may have exterior edge surfaces disposed at an angle between 25° and 90° relative to the bases, and ends remote, e.g., opposite, from the bases, and remote from the ends which are connected to the bases. A dielectric encapsulation layer extends from the substrate and covers portions of the wire bonds such that covered portions of the wire bonds are separated from one another by the encapsulation layer, wherein unencapsulated portions of the wire bonds are defined by portions of the wire bonds that are uncovered by the encapsulation layer, the unencapsulated portions including the ends of the wire bonds.

A microelectronic assembly may include a microelectronic element having a plurality of element contacts at a face thereof, and a compliant dielectric element having a Young's modulus of less than about two gigapascal (GPa) and substrate contacts at a first surface joined to the element contacts. The substrate contacts may be electrically connected with terminals at a second surface of the compliant dielectric element that opposes the first surface, through conductive vias in the compliant dielectric element. A rigid underfill may be between the face of the microelectronic element and the first surface of the compliant dielectric element. The terminals may be usable for bonding the microelectronic assembly to corresponding contacts of a component external to the microelectronic assembly.
