A semiconductor chip assembly includes a semiconductor device, a heat spreader, a conductive trace and first and second adhesives. The heat spreader includes a first post, a second post and a base. The conductive trace includes a pad and a terminal. The semiconductor device is electrically connected to the conductive trace and thermally connected to the heat spreader. The first post extends from the base in a first vertical direction into a first opening in the first adhesive, the second post extends from the base in a second vertical direction into a second opening in the second adhesive and the base is sandwiched between and extends laterally from the posts. The conductive trace provides signal routing between the pad and the terminal.
