An integrated circuit device includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a first expanding pad, a second expanding pad and a bonding structure. The first substrate is provided with a first conductive portion, the second substrate is provided with a second conductive portion, the first expanding pad is formed on the first conductive portion to provide a first expanded contact area, the second expanding pad is formed on the second conductive portion to provide a second expanded contact area, and the bonding structure is formed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the first expanding pad is bonded to the second expanding pad.

A contact pad includes a solder-wettable porous network (310) which wicks the molten solder (130) and thus restricts the lateral spread of the solder, thus preventing solder bridging between adjacent contact pads.

A method of forming an electronic device structure includes providing an electronic component having a first major surface, an opposing second major surface, a first edge surface, and an opposing second edge surface. A substrate having a substrate first major surface and an opposing substrate second major surface is provided. The second major surface of the first electronic component is placed proximate to the substrate first major surface and providing a conductive material adjacent the first edge surface of the first electronic component. The conductive material is exposed to an elevated temperature to reflow the conductive material to raise the first electronic component into an upright position such that the second edge surface is spaced further away from the substrate first major surface than the first edge surface. The method is suitable for providing electronic components, such as antenna, sensors, or optical devices in a vertical or on-edge.

A mixed-orientation multi-die (MOMD) integrated circuit package includes dies mounted in different physical orientations. An MOMD package includes both (a) one or more dies horizontally-mounted dies (HMDs) mounted horizontally to a horizontally-extending die mount base and (b) one or more vertically-mounted dies (VMDs) mounted vertically to the horizontally-extending die mount base. HMDs may include FPGAs or other high performance chips, while VMDs may include low performance chips and other physical structures such as heat dissipators, memory, high voltage/analog devices, sensors, or MEMS, for example. The die mount base of an MOMD package may include structures for aligning and mounting VMD(s), for example, VMD slots for receiving each mounted VMD, and VMD alignment structures that facilitate aligning and/or guiding a vertical mounting of each VMD to the die mount base. MOMD packages may provide a reduced lateral footprint and increased die integration per unit area, as compared with conventional multi-die packages.
