A method includes providing a substrate having substrate terminals and providing a first component having a first terminal and a second terminal. The method includes providing a clip structure having a first clip, a second clip, and a clip connector coupling the first clip to the second clip. The method includes coupling the first clip to the first terminal and a substrate terminal and coupling the second clip to another substrate terminal. The method includes encapsulating the structure and removing a portion of the clip connector. In some examples, the first portion of the clip connector includes a first portion surface, the second portion of the clip connector includes a second portion surface, and the first portion surface and the second portion surface are exposed from a top side of the encapsulant. Other examples and related structures are also disclosed herein.

A method of manufacturing integrated devices, and a stacked integrated device are disclosed. In an embodiment, the method comprises providing a substrate; mounting at least a first electronic component on the substrate; positioning a handle wafer above the first electronic component; attaching the first electronic component to the substrate via electrical connectors between the first electronic component and the substrate; and while attaching the first electronic component to the substrate, using the handle wafer to apply pressure, toward the substrate, to the first electronic component, to manage planarity of the first electronic component during the attaching. In an embodiment, a joining process is used to attach the first electronic component to the substrate via the electrical connectors. For example, thermal compression bonding may be used to attach the first electronic component to the substrate via the electrical connectors.
