Abstract: Semiconductor devices and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the semiconductor device is an assembly that includes a package substrate having a front side and a backside opposite the front side. A controller die with a first longitudinal footprint can be attached to the front side of the package substrate. A passive electrical component is also attached to the front side of the package substrate. A stack of semiconductor dies can be attached to the controller die and the passive electrical component. The stack of semiconductor dies has a second longitudinal footprint greater than the first longitudinal footprint in at least one dimension. The controller die and the passive electrical component are positioned at least partially within the second longitudinal footprint, thereby at least partially supporting the stack of semiconductor dies.
