An integrated stack of layers incorporating a plurality of IC chip layers has an end layer which is formed of dielectric material (or covered with such material). The outer surface of the end layer provides a substantial area for the spaced location of a multiplicity of lead-out terminals, to which exterior circuitry can be readily connected. In the preferred embodiment, each lead-out terminal on the outer surface of the end layer is connected to IC circuitry embedded in the stack by means of conducting material in a hole through the end layer, and a conductor (trace) on the inner surface of the end layer which extends from the hole to the edge of the end layer, where it is connected by a T-connect to metalization on the access plane face of the stack. |
