A semiconductor device assembly including a substrate, a semiconductor device, a stiffener member, and mold compound. The stiffener member is tuned, or configured, to reduce and/or control the shape of warpage of the semiconductor device assembly at an elevated temperature. The stiffener member may be placed on the substrate, on the semiconductor device, and/or on the mold compound. A plurality of stiffener members may be used. The stiffener members may be positioned in a predetermined pattern on a component of the semiconductor device assembly. A stiffener member may be used so that the warpage of a first semiconductor device substantially corresponds to the warpage of a second semiconductor device at an elevated temperature. The stiffener member may be tuned by providing the member with a desired coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). The desired CTE may be based on the individual CTEs of the components of a semiconductor device assembly.

A foil-based package and a method for manufacturing a foil-based package includes, among other things, a first and a second foil substrate. An electronic component is arranged between the two foil substrates in a sandwich-like manner. Due to the component thickness, there is a distance difference between the two foil substrates between the mounting area of the component and ears outside of the mounting area. The foil-based package and the method provides means for reducing and/or compensating a distance difference between the first foil substrate and the second foil substrate caused by the component thickness.
