The present invention discloses methods and apparatuses for the separations of IC fabrication and assembling of separated IC components to form complete IC structures. In an embodiment, the present fabrication separation of an IC structure into multiple discrete components can take advantages of dedicated IC fabrication facilities and achieve more cost effective products. The present process can fabricate multiple components separately before assembling them into a complete integrated circuit. In an aspect, the ready-for-assembling components are taken directly from processed wafers without any additional assembling processes, and/or having lateral dimensions less than 1 mm. |
