MITIGATING THERMAL IMPACTS ON ADJACENT STACKED SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES

Abstract:

A semiconductor device assembly and associated methods are disclosed herein. The semiconductor device assembly includes (1) a substrate having a first side and a second side opposite the first side; (2) a first set of stacked semiconductor devices at the first side of the substrate; (3) a second set of stacked semiconductor devices adjacent to one side of the first set of stacked semiconductor devices; (4) a third set of stacked semiconductor devices adjacent to an opposite side of the first set of stacked semiconductor devices; and (5) a temperature adjusting component at the second side and aligned with the second set of stacked semiconductor devices. The temperature adjusting component is positioned to absorb the thermal energy and thereby thermally isolate the second set of stacked semiconductor devices from the first set of stacked semiconductor devices.
