Abstract:
1. A method of assembling a stacked microelectronic device assembly, comprising: attaching a first microelectronic component to a support, an active surface of the first microelectronic component facing away from a contact surface of the support, the support including a plurality of first electrical contacts and the first microelectronic component including a plurality of second electrical contacts; electrically connecting a first wire to a first one of the first electrical contacts and to a first one of the second electrical contacts, and electrically connecting a second wire to a second one of the first electrical contacts and to a second one of the second electrical contacts, the first wire being spaced from the second wire; disposing a wire coating on at least a portion of the first wire and at least a portion of the second wire; placing at least a portion of a second microelectronic component proximate to the active surface of the first microelectronic component such that the wire coating mechanically supports the second microelectronic component and defines an open intercomponent gap between a facing surface of the second microelectronic component and the active surface of the first microelectronic component; and wherein the wire coating is initially applied in an uncured state and is partially cured to yield an adhesive, mechanically stable wire coating prior to juxtaposing the facing surface of the second microelectronic component with the active surface of the first microelectronic component.
