摘要:
An electronic assembly including a die, having an integrated circuit formed therein, a thermally conductive heat spreader, and indium located between the die and the heat spreader, is described. The heat spreader has a layer of nickel. A gold layer is formed on the nickel layer, and provides better wetting of indium than nickel. A better structural connection between the indium and the heat spreader is provided, especially during thermal cycling.
摘要:
A system includes a thermal interface material (TIM) to transfer heat from a die to a heat spreader. The system includes a heat transfer subsystem disposed on the backside surface of the die. In one embodiment, the heat transfer subsystem comprises a first heat transfer material and a second heat transfer material discretely disposed within the first heat transfer material. A method of bonding a die to a heat spreader uses a die-referenced process as opposed to a substrate-referenced process.
摘要:
A device and method for designing and manufacturing an integrated heat spreader so that the integrated heat spreader will have a flat surface on which to mount a heat sink after being assembled into a package and exposed to the heat of a die. This device and method for designing and manufacturing an integrated heat spreader would generate a heat spreader that would be built compensate for deformations resulting from (1) physical manipulation during assembly (2) thermal gradients during operation and (3) differing rates of expansion and contraction of the package materials coupled with multiple package assembly steps at elevated temperatures so that one surface of the integrated heat spreader would have a flat shape.
摘要:
An electronic assembly is provided having a die, a heat spreader, and a solidified solder material. A die includes a die substrate and an integrated circuit on a bottom surface of the die substrate. The heat spreader is located above the die and has left and right inclined faces. The left inclined face tapers from a point near a center of the die to a point upward and to the left of the upper surface. The right inclined face tapers from a point near the center upward and to the right above the upper surface. A solidified solder material fills regions between the upper surface and the inclined faces of the lower surface.

摘要:
Embodiments include electronic packages and methods for forming electronic packages. One method includes providing a die and a thermal interface material on the die. A metal body is adapted to fit over the die. A wetting layer of a material comprising indium is formed on the metal body. The thermal interface material on the die is brought into contact with the wetting layer of material comprising indium. The thermal interface material is heated to form a bond between the thermal interface material and the wetting layer so that the thermal interface material is coupled to the metal body, and to form a bond between the thermal interface material and the die so that the thermal interface material is coupled to the die.
摘要:
A composite of two or more thermal interface materials (“TIMs”) is placed between a die and a heat spreader to improve cooling of the die in an integrated circuit package. The two or more TIMs vary in heat-dissipation capability depending upon the locations of die hot spots. In an embodiment, a more thermally conductive material may be positioned over one or more die hot spots, and a less thermally conductive material may be positioned abutting and/or surrounding the more thermally conductive material. The two or more TIMs may comprise a solder and a polymer. The composite TIM may be preformed as one unit or as a plurality of units. Methods of fabrication, as well as application of the package to an electronic assembly and to an electronic system, are also described.
