Abstract

A semiconductor device assembly including a shape-memory element connected to at least one component of the semiconductor device assembly. The shape-memory element may be temperature activated or electrically activated. The shape-memory element is configured to move to reduce, minimize, or modify a warpage of a component of the assembly by moving to an initial shape. The shape-memory element may be applied to a surface of a component of the semiconductor device assembly or may be positioned within a component of the semiconductor device assembly such as a layer. The shape-memory element may be connected between two components of the semiconductor device assembly. A plurality of shape-memory elements may be used to reduce, minimize, and/or modify warpage of one or more components of a semiconductor device assembly.
