Abstract

Several embodiments of the present technology are directed to semiconductor devices, systems including semiconductor devices, and methods of making and operating semiconductor devices. In some embodiments, a semiconductor device comprises a substrate, a first die mounted to the substrate and including first inductors, and a second die mounted to the first die in an offset position and including second inductors. The first inductors are at an active side of the first die, and the second inductors are at an active side of the second die. At least a portion of the first inductors are proximate and inductively coupled to the second inductors. The semiconductor device further comprises a first plurality of interconnects electrically coupling the substrate to the first die, and a second plurality of interconnects electrically coupling the second die to the substrate. The first plurality of interconnects extend from an upper surface of the substrate to the active side of the first die, and the second plurality of interconnects extend from the active side of the second die to the lower surface of the substrate.
