Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a first integrated circuit (IC) die including a top layer, a bottom surface, a sidewall surface extending from a top surface of the top layer to the bottom surface, and at least one multi-surface contact pad, wherein the at least one multi-surface contact pad includes a top surface substantially in the same plane as the top surface of the top layer of the first IC die and a side surface substantially in the same plane as the sidewall surface of the first IC die; a second IC die including a top layer, a bottom surface, a sidewall surface extending from a top surface of the top layer to the bottom surface, and at least one multi-surface contact pad, wherein the second IC die is arranged adjacent to the first IC die; a substrate, wherein the bottom surfaces of the first IC die and the second IC die are in contact with the substrate; and an electrically conductive bond including the top surface and the side surface of the multi-surface contact pad of the first IC die and at least one of the top surface and the side surface of the multi-surface contact pad of the second IC die.
