    摘要: An apparatus for determining a thickness change of thermal interface material (TIM) disposed between first and second elements is provided. The apparatus includes a first part movable with the first element in a movement direction along which the TIM thickness is to be determined, a second part movable with the second element in the movement direction and a sensor to measure a distance between the first and second parts in the movement direction, the measured distance being related to the TIM thickness change.

    摘要: Disclosed is a multilayer thermal interface material which includes a first layer of metallic thermal interface material, a buffer layer and preferably a second layer of thermal interface material which may be metallic or nonmetallic. The multilayer thermal interface material is used in conjunction with a semiconductor device assembly of a chip carrier substrate, a heat spreader for attaching to the substrate, a semiconductor device mounted on the substrate and underneath the heat spreader and the multilayer thermal interface material interposed between the heat spreader and the semiconductor device. The heat spreader has a first coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), CTE1, the buffer layer has a second CTE, CTE2, and the semiconductor device has a third CTE, CTE3, wherein CTE1>CTE2>CTE3.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are embodiments of electronic package incorporating a thermal interface material (e.g., a metal TIM) that is positioned between a lid and a chip on a substrate. The TIM has a predetermined (i.e., repeatable) minimum thickness and is further registered to the top surface of the chip (i.e., the TIM has an essentially symmetric shape and does not extend vertically along the sidewalls of the chip). Also, disclosed herein are embodiments of a method of forming such an electronic package that uses a hierarchical heating process that cures a lid sealant, thereby securing the lid to the substrate, and then reflows (i.e., melts and cools) the TIM, thereby adhering the TIM to both the chip and lid. This hierarchical heating process ensures that the TIM has the above-mentioned characteristics (i.e., a predetermined minimum thickness and registration to the top surface of the chip) and further provides robust process windows for high-yield, low-cost electronic package manufacturing.
