Abstract
A first semiconductor device die is provided having a bottom edge incorporating a notch structure that allows sufficient height and width clearance for a wire bond connected to a bond pad on an active surface of a second semiconductor device die upon which the first semiconductor device die is stacked. Use of such notch structures reduces a height of a stack incorporating the first and second semiconductor device die, thereby also reducing a thickness of a semiconductor device package incorporating the stack.
