Patent ID: 6900528

Claim:
A stacked multiple-semiconductor die device, comprising: a substrate having a surface; at least one conductive bond area on the surface of the substrate; a plurality of semiconductor dice having similar dimensions, each semiconductor die having an active surface including at least four edges, and a back side; a field of conductive bond pads disposed on the active surface of each semiconductor die, the field of conductive bond pads positioned along less than three edges of the active surface of a semiconductor die, the back side of a first semiconductor die being attached to the surface of the substrate adjacent the at least one conductive bond area of the surface of the substrate and the back side of a second semiconductor die is attached to the active surface of the first semiconductor die in an offset position having the field of conductive bond pads of the first semiconductor die exposed; conductors connecting bond pads of the first semiconductor die to the at least one conductive bond area of the substrate; and conductors connecting bond pads of the second semiconductor die to the at least one conductive bond area of the substrate.
