Abstract: In accordance with the disclosure, one or both semiconductor dies in a face-to-face arrangement may include a probe pad layer formed on a face of the die to allow the die to be individually tested prior to assembly of the dies.

The probe pad layer also allows dies to be matched so that a composite semiconductor device achieves desired performance, which may further increase device yields. In some embodiments, the probe pads of the probe pad layer formed on the face of the die may be used to individually test the die, and may remain inactive, or inert, during operation of the composite semiconductor device.
