Abstract

Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a semiconductor die with memory array regions and one or more regions peripheral to the memory array regions. A stack of alternating insulative and conductive levels extends across the memory array regions and passes into at least one of the peripheral regions. The stack generates bending stresses on the die. At least one stress-moderating region extends through the stack and is configured to alleviate the bending stresses.
