Abstract

Implementations of a semiconductor device may include a first largest planar surface, a second largest planar surface and a thickness between the first largest planar surface and the second largest planar surface; and one of a permanent die support structure, a temporary die support structure, or any combination thereof coupled to one of the first largest planar surface, the second largest planar surface, the thickness, or any combination thereof. The first largest planar surface, the second largest planar surface, and the thickness may be formed by at least two semiconductor die. The warpage of one of the first largest planar surface or the second largest planar surface may be less than 200 microns.
