A semiconductor device is disclosed including one or more semiconductor dies mounted on substrate. Each semiconductor die may be formed with a ferromagnetic layer on a lower, inactive surface of the semiconductor die. The ferromagnetic layer pulls the semiconductor dies down against each other and the substrate during fabrication to prevent warping of the dies. The ferromagnetic layer also balances out a mismatch of coefficients of thermal expansion between layers of the dies, thus further preventing warping of the dies.

Embodiments include semiconductor packages and methods of forming such packages. A semiconductor package includes a die on a package substrate, an integrated heat spreader (IHS) on the package substrate and above the die, and a solder thermal interface material (STIM) coupling the die to the IHS. The semiconductor package includes a low-temperature solder (LTS) paste comprising an alloy of tin and bismuth (Bi), and the LTS paste on a bottom surface of the package substrate having a ball grid array. The LTS paste may have a weight percentage of Bi greater than 35% and a melting point less than or equal to a melting point of the STIM, where the STIM includes indium. The weight percentage of Bi may be between approximately 35% to 58%. The semiconductor package may include a solder ball coupling the LTS paste on the package substrate to the LTS paste on a second package substrate.
