1. A semiconductor device assembly, comprising:

  • an electronic device component having a chip-bearing surface carrying a plurality of contacts;

    a chip-scale package positioned over the chip-bearing surface of the electronic device component, the chip-scale package including;

    a semiconductor device; and

    a plurality of contacts substantially corresponding to the plurality of contacts of the electronic device component, each chip-scale package contact of the plurality of contacts including;

    an upper element extending over a portion of an active surface of the semiconductor device of the chip-scale package;

    a peripheral element extending from at least an active surface of the semiconductor device over a portion of a lateral periphery of the semiconductor device to at least a back side of the semiconductor device; and

    a bottom element extending over a portion of the back side of the semiconductor device;

    wherein the upper element and the bottom element are in contact with the peripheral element and a peripheral end of at least one of the upper element and the bottom element forms a discernable boundary with an inner surface of the peripheral element; and

    intermediate conductive elements operably coupled between and in direct contact with at least some contacts of the plurality of contacts of the electronic device component and at least the bottom element of corresponding chip-scale package contacts.
