Abstract
A device including a stack of dies. Each of the dies can have unit stair-step conductive paths of connection features which include through-die via structures and routing structures. The unit stair-step conductive paths of one of the dies can be interconnected to another one of the unit stair-step conductive paths of another one of the dies to form one of a plurality conductive stair-case structures through two or more of the dies. The unit stair-step conductive paths can be connected to reduce signal cross talk between the conductive stair-case structures whereby at least some of the conductive stair-case structures are connected to transmit a same polarity of electrical signals are spatially separated in a dimension that is perpendicular to a major surface of the dies. A method of manufacturing the device is also disclosed.
