Stacked microfeature devices and associated methods of manufacture are disclosed. A package in accordance with one embodiment includes first and second microfeature devices having corresponding first and second bond pad surfaces that face toward each other. First bond pads can be positioned at least proximate to the first bond pad surface and second bond pads can be positioned at least proximate to the second bond pad surface. A package connection site can provide electrical communication between the first microfeature device and components external to the package. A wirebond can be coupled between at least one of the first bond pads and the package connection site, and an electrically conductive link can be coupled between the first microfeature device and at least one of the second bond pads of the second microfeature device. Accordingly, the first microfeature device can form a portion of an electrical link to the second microfeature device.

A method and a device for establishing a wire connection between a first contact surface and at least one further contact surface. A contact end of a wire is positioned in a contact position relative to the first contact surface with a wire guiding tool. Subsequently, a mechanical, electrically conductive connection is established between the first contact surface and the contact end with a first solder material connection, and subsequently the wire guiding tool is moved to the further contact surface thus forming a wire section and establishing a further mechanical, electrically conductive connection between the wire section end and the further contact surface with a further solder material connection.

A semiconductor package includes first bump structures that include a stud portion disposed below the second rear surface pads of the first group, and a bonding wire portion that extends from the stud portion and is connected to the first front surface pads of the first group; second bump structures disposed below the second rear surface pads of the second group; an encapsulant that encapsulates the second semiconductor chip and the first and second bump structures; and a redistribution structure disposed below the encapsulant, and that includes an insulating layer, redistribution layers disposed below the insulating layer, and redistribution vias that penetrate through the insulating layer and connect the redistribution layers to the first bump structures or the second bump structures. At least a portion of the redistribution vias connected to the first bump structures is in contact with the stud portion.

A method including stacking a number of silicon dice such that one or more edges of the dice are in vertical alignment, where the one or more edges include a number of connection pads. The method also includes positioning a connecting wire on a substantially perpendicular axis to the one or more edges. The connecting wire includes a number of solder blocks formed thereon. The solder blocks are spaced at intervals associated with a distance between a first set of aligned connection pads on the dice. The connecting wire is positioned such that the solder blocks are in contact with the first set of aligned connection pads. The method also includes applying heat to cause the solder blocks to reflow and physically and electrically couple the connecting wire to the connection pads.
