Abstract
A stack of chips is formed by a first integrated-circuit chip and a second integrated-circuit chip. The chips have opposing faces which are separated from each other by an interposed spacer. The spacer is fastened by adhesion to only one of the opposing faces. The opposing faces are fastened to each other by a local adhesive which is separate from spacer.
