A multi-chip device is provided. The multi-chip device includes a first chip, a second chip mounted on the first chip, and a hardened printed or sprayed electrically conductive material forming a sintered electrically conductive interface between the first chip and the second chip.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of forming an electronic assembly with a mesh bond layer. The method may include forming a mesh bond material comprising a first surface spaced apart from a second surface by a thickness of the mesh bond material and one or more openings extending from the first surface through the thickness of the mesh bond material to the second surface. The method may further include adjusting at least one of: the thickness of the mesh bond material, a geometry of the one or more openings, or a size of the one or more openings of the mesh bond material, where the adjusting modifies a Young's modulus of the mesh bond material, and bonding the first surface of the mesh bond material to a surface of a semiconductor device.

An encapsulation resin composition is used to hermetically seal a gap between a base member and a semiconductor chip bonded onto the base member. The encapsulation resin composition has a reaction start temperature of 160 C. or less. A melt viscosity of the encapsulation resin composition is 200 Pa.Math.s or less at the reaction start temperature, 400 Pa.Math.s or less at any temperature which is equal to or higher than a temperature lower by 40 C. than the reaction start temperature and which is equal to or lower than the reaction start temperature, and 1,000 Pa.Math.s or less at a temperature lower by 50 C. than the reaction start temperature.

A method for producing a layer including a connecting medium on an assembly partner is provided. The method includes providing a carrier on which the connecting medium is applied. The connecting medium contains a metal in the form of a multiplicity of metal particles. The assembly partner is placed on the connecting medium located on the carrier and pressed onto the connecting medium located on the carrier, so that a layer of the connecting medium adheres to the assembly partner. The assembly partner together with the layer adhering thereto is removed from the carrier. By means of a gas flow, edges of the layer, at which the latter extends laterally beyond the assembly partner, are removed so that a layer residue of the layer remains adhering to the assembly partner.
