Abstract

There is provided a semiconductor device assembly with an interposer and method of manufacturing the same. More specifically, in one embodiment, there is provided a semiconductor device assembly comprising a semiconductor substrate, at least one semiconductor die attached to the semiconductor substrate, an interposer disposed on the semiconductor die, and a controller attached to the interposer. There is also provided a method of manufacturing comprising forming a first subassembly by coupling a substrate and a semiconductor die, and forming second subassembly by attaching a controller to an interposer, and coupling the first subassembly to the second subassembly.

Claims (42)

1 . A semiconductor device, comprising:
