Abstract: A semiconductor die assembly in accordance with an embodiment of the present technology includes first and second semiconductor dies spaced apart from one another. The first semiconductor die has a major surface with non-overlapping first and second regions. The semiconductor die assembly further includes an array of first pillars extending heightwise from the first region of the major surface of the first semiconductor die toward the second semiconductor die. Similarly, the semiconductor die assembly includes an array of second pillars extending heightwise from the second region of the major surface of the first semiconductor die toward the second semiconductor die. The first and second pillars have different lateral densities and different average widths. The latter difference at least partially offsets an effect of the former difference on relative metal deposition rates of an electrochemical plating process used to form the first and second pillars.

Abstract: Methods of making semiconductor device packages may involve attaching a first semiconductor die to a carrier wafer, an inactive surface of the first semiconductor die facing the carrier wafer. One or more additional semiconductor die may be stacked on the first semiconductor die on a side of the first semiconductor die opposite the carrier wafer to form a stack of semiconductor dice. A protective material may be positioned over the stack of semiconductor dice, a portion of the protective material extending along side surfaces of the first semiconductor die to a location proximate the inactive surface of the first semiconductor die. The carrier wafer may be detached from the first semiconductor die.
