Claim:
1. A microelectronic package, comprising: a microelectronic element having a front surface defining a plane, a rear surface opposite the front surface, and a plurality of edge surfaces between the front and rear surfaces, the microelectronic element having a plurality of chip contacts at the front surface; a metal die attach pad having an attachment surface underlying and bonded to one of the front or rear surfaces of the microelectronic element; the package having a plurality of remote surfaces, and an encapsulation region contacting at least one edge surface of the microelectronic element and extending away from the at least one edge surface to a corresponding one of the remote surfaces, the encapsulation region having a major surface substantially parallel to the plane of the microelectronic element; and a plurality of package contacts at an interconnect surface being a single one of the remote surfaces, the package contacts being electrically coupled with the chip contacts of the microelectronic element, the package contacts defined by leadframe interconnects, the package contacts being configured for electrically connecting the microelectronic package with a corresponding set of substrate contacts at a major surface of a substrate in a state in which the major surface of the substrate is oriented at a substantial angle to the plane of the microelectronic element and is oriented towards the single one of the remote surfaces.
