Patent ID: 8138613

Claim:
A microelectronic device, comprising: a substrate having a plurality of first contacts; a microelectronic die attached to the substrate, the microelectronic die including an active side, a plurality of terminals on the active side, a back side opposite the active side, and a plurality of ends extending between the active side and the back side; a casing covering at least a portion of the ends of the die; a redistribution structure on the die and the casing, the redistribution structure having a plurality of second contacts electrically coupled to corresponding terminals on the die, the second contacts being positioned outboard the die; a dielectric material on the redistribution structure, the dielectric material extending outboard the second contacts and configures to contact a support surface of a testing device, wherein individual second contacts are at least partially exposed through the dielectric material; and a plurality of wire-bonds electrically connecting the first contacts on the substrate to corresponding second contacts on the redistribution structure.
