1. A package, comprising:
an electronic device within the package;
a plate having a first surface overlapping the electronic device, a first corner, a second corner, and a first sidewall extending from the first corner to the second corner;
a lateral wall having a second surface facing the first surface, a third corner aligned with the first corner, a fourth corner aligned with the second corner, and a second sidewall extending from the third corner to the fourth corner, the second sidewall is coplanar with the first sidewall;
a layer of a bonding material extends from the second surface of the lateral wall to the first surface of the plate, the layer couples the plate to the lateral wall, the layer of bonding material includes a third sidewall coplanar with the first and second sidewalls; and
at least one region of a material configured to form in the region an opening between an inside and an outside of the package when the package is heated, the at least one region of the material on the lateral wall and extends from the lateral wall to the first surface of the plate, the at least one region of material spaced inward from the first, second, third, and fourth corners, and
wherein the lateral wall further includes a first protrusion that extends from the lateral wall to the first surface of the plate, the first protrusion separates the layer of the bonding material from the at least one region of material.
