Microelectronic devices and methods for forming interconnects in microelectronic devices

摘要

Microelectronic devices, methods for packaging microelectronic devices, and methods for forming interconnects in microelectronic devices are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method comprises providing a microelectronic substrate having a front side and a backside. The substrate has a microelectronic die including an integrated circuit and a terminal operatively coupled to the integrated circuit. The method also includes forming a passage at least partially through the substrate and having an opening at the front side and/or backside of the substrate. The method further includes sealing the opening with a conductive cap that closes one end of the passage while another end of the passage remains open. The method then includes filling the passage with a conductive material.
