Abstract

Electronic devices and methods for fabricating electronic devices are described. One method includes providing a substrate and a die, and coupling the die to the substrate, wherein a gap remains between the die and the substrate. The method also includes placing an underfill material on the substrate and delivering at least part of the underfill material into the gap. The method also includes controlling the flow of the underfill material in the gap using magnetic force. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
