A structure includes a substrate having a first region and a second region, the substrate also having a first surface and a second surface. Electrically conductive elements are exposed at the first surface within the second region. Wire bonds have bases bonded to respective ones of the conductive elements and ends remote from the substrate and remote from the bases. At least one of the wire bonds has a shape such that the wire bond defines an axis between the free end and the base thereof and such that the wire bond defines a plane. A bent portion of the at least one wire bond extends away from the axis within the plane. A dielectric encapsulation layer covers portions of the wire bonds such that unencapsulated portions, including the ends, of the wire bonds are defined by portions of the wire bonds that are uncovered by the encapsulation layer.
