  • Publication number: 20240063168
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wire bonding for stacked memory dies are described. A memory system may include a stack of memory dies. As the stack grows to include more and more memory dies, the length of the wires coupling the memory dies with the control circuit may increase. Bonding multiple wires using an adhesive may increase a gap between neighboring wires coupled with the same memory die or different memory dies. For example, bonding one wire to a neighboring wire may pull one or both of the bonded wires away from their original placement, increasing a gap between the bonded wires and one or more neighboring wires. Bonding the wires coupled with a lower memory die may increase a gap such that sagging wires coupled with an upper memory die may be positioned in the gap to avoid shorting with the lower wires.

  • Publication number: 20240057265
    Abstract: Substrates having stress-releasing features, and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the substrate includes a core layer, a metallization layer formed on an outer surface of the core layer, and a solder mask formed over the metallization layer and the outer surface. The metallization layer can include at least one bond pad and the solder mask can include a first opening exposing the bond pad. The first opening can be surrounded by a bonding region of the solder mask that thermally interfaces with the bond pad and/or any conductive structure bonded thereon. The solder mask can also include one or more second openings adjacent the first opening. Each of the second openings provides space for the solder mask to expand into to release stress due to thermal expansions of the bond pad, the solder mask, and/or the conductive structure during manufacturing and/or operation.
