Embodiments of the present disclosure describe scalable package architecture of an integrated circuit (IC) assembly and associated techniques and configurations. In one embodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) assembly includes a package substrate having a first side and a second side disposed opposite to the first side, a first die having an active side coupled with the first side of the package substrate and an inactive side disposed opposite to the active side, the first die having one or more through-silicon vias (TSVs) configured to route electrical signals between the first die and a second die, and a mold compound disposed on the first side of the package substrate, wherein the mold compound is in direct contact with a sidewall of the first die between the active side and the inactive side and wherein a distance between the first side and a terminating edge of the mold compound that is farthest from the first side is equal to or less than a distance between the inactive side of the first die and the first side. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A system includes a semiconductor substrate having a first cavity. The semiconductor substrate forms a pedestal adjacent the first cavity. A device overlays the pedestal and is bonded to the semiconductor substrate by metal within the first cavity. A plurality of second cavities are formed in a surface of the pedestal beneath the device, wherein the second cavities are smaller than the first cavity. In some of these teachings, the second cavities are voids. In some of these teachings, the metal in the first cavity comprises a eutectic mixture. The structure relates to a method of manufacturing in which a layer providing a mask to etch the first cavity is segmented to enable easy removal of the mask-providing layer from the area over the pedestal.
