An integrated memory assembly comprises a memory die and a control die bonded to the memory die. The memory die includes a memory structure of non-volatile memory cells. The control die is configured to program user data to and read user data from the memory die in response to commands from a memory controller. To utilize space more efficiently on the memory die, the control die compacts fragmented data on the memory die.

A semiconductor device having a channel between active sections or portions of the device is disclosed. An elastic material, such as dielectric or a polymer, is deposited into the channel and cured to increase flexibility and thermal expansion properties of the semiconductor device. The elastic material reduces the thermal and mechanical mismatch between the semiconductor device and the substrate to which the semiconductor device is coupled in downstream processing to improve reliability. The semiconductor device may also include a plurality of channels formed transverse with respect to each other. Some of the channels extend all the way through the semiconductor device, while other channels extend only partially through the semiconductor device.
