Patent ID: 7224070

Claim:
A plurality of semiconductor die for an assembly comprising: a first semiconductor die of a plurality of semiconductor die in a wafer, the first semiconductor die having an upper surface, the upper surface comprising a plurality of electrical contacts and at least one region for mounting a second semiconductor die; at least one adhesive flow control dam formed on the first semiconductor die when a plurality of semiconductor die are in a wafer form prior to the singulation of the plurality of semiconductor die from the wafer for preventing flow of an adhesive applied in the at least one region of the first semiconductor die onto the plurality of electrical contacts during the mounting of a second semiconductor die, the at least one adhesive flow control dam positioned between the at least one region for mounting a second semiconductor die and each electrical contact of the plurality of electrical contacts; and a second semiconductor die, the second semiconductor die adhesively mounted onto the at least one region for the mounting a second semiconductor die of the first semiconductor die.
