Abstract:
1. An assembly, comprising: a first substrate having a first opposing surface and a second opposing surface, and further having a number of bond pads on the first opposing surface; a second substrate having a first opposing surface and a second opposing surface, and further having a number of bond pads on the first opposing surface; a package having two major opposing surfaces with a cavity defined by an indentation in at least one of the two opposing surfaces resulting in a cavity defining surface that includes at least one side surface and a bottom surface, wherein the cavity includes a space that is at least partially defined by the cavity defining surface, the cavity having a number of package bond pads positioned along or adjacent to at least part of a periphery of the cavity; the first substrate and the second substrate positioned in the space that is at least partially defined by the cavity, wherein the second substrate is positioned between the first substrate and the bottom surface of the cavity defining surface such that the first opposing surface of the second substrate faces the first substrate; selected bond pads on the first opposing surface of the first substrate being electrically connected to selected package bond pads; and selected bond pads on the first opposing surface of the second substrate being electrically connected to selected package bond pads.
