Patent ID: 8237271

Claim:
A method of interconnecting semiconductor devices, comprising the steps of: positioning a first semiconductor device, a second semiconductor device, and a third semiconductor device in proximity to each other, wherein each of the semiconductor devices comprise a top; and a bottom; wherein the first semiconductor device and the second semiconductor device further comprise at least one side, wherein the top and the bottom and the at least one side comprise at least three generally planar surfaces and wherein the at least one side comprises one or more edge pads; wherein the third semiconductor devices comprises one or more surface pads; and wherein solder is electrically connected to the one or more surface pads of the third semiconductor device; reflowing the solder electrically connected to a first surface pad of the third semiconductor device, wherein the reflowing step electrically joins together a first edge pad of the first semiconductor device and a first edge pad of the second semiconductor device and wherein the solder electrically joins the first edge pad of the first semiconductor device, the first edge pad of the second semiconductor device and the first surface pad of the third semiconductor device.
