A die and substrate assembly is disclosed for a die with electronic circuitry and a substrate. A sintered bonding layer of sintered metal is disposed between the die and the substrate. The sintered bonding layer includes a plurality of zones having different sintered metal densities. The plurality of zones are distributed along one or more horizontal axes of the sintered bonding layer, along one or more vertical axes of the sintered bonding layer or along both one or more horizontal and one or more vertical axes of the sintered bonding layer. |
