摘要:
Semiconductor package structures are provided which are designed to have liquid coolers integrally packaged with first level chip modules. In particular, apparatus for integrally packaging a liquid cooler device within a first level chip package structure include structures in which a liquid cooler device is thermally coupled directly to the back side of an integrated circuit chip flip-chip mounted on flexible chip carrier substrate. The liquid cooler device is mechanically coupled to the package substrate through a metallic stiffener structure that is bonded to the flexible package substrate to provide mechanical rigidity to the flexible package substrate.

An apparatus to reduce a thermal penalty of a three-dimensional (3D) die stack for use in a computing environment is provided and includes a substrate installed within the computing environment, a first component to perform operations of the computing environment, which is coupled to the substrate in a stacking direction, a set of second components to perform operations of the computing environment, each of which is coupled to the first component and segmented with respect to one another to form a vacated region, a thermal interface material (TIM) disposed on exposed surfaces of the first and second components, and a lid, including a protrusion, coupled to the substrate to overlay the first and second components such that the protrusion extends into the vacated region and such that surfaces of the lid and the protrusion thermally communicate with the first and second components via the TIM.

Monitoring temperature excursions an assembly experiences over a life of the assembly is provided. A determination is made as to whether the assembly has been in service beyond a predetermined end of life objective. Responsive to the assembly failing to be in service beyond the predetermined end of life objective, a new temperature value associated with the assembly is read. A modifier value for a figure of merit (FOM) value is computed and added to a cumulative figure of merit value. The cumulative figure of merit value is compared to a cumulative stress figure of merit budget. Responsive to the cumulative figure of merit value exceeding the cumulative stress figure of merit budget, an identified stress management solution is implemented.

摘要:
A flexible plate for securing a microchip surface to the surface of a cooling device. The flexible plate allows for z-directional movement between the microchip subassembly having a circuit board and a semiconductor substrate, and the cooling device. The flexible plate is a compact, single piece design that provides constraints in alignment in the x-, y-, and theta-directions, while allowing for z-direction compliance and tilt compliance. The flexible plate has tabs for mounting the microchip subassembly and tabs for mounting the cooling device. The microchip tabs are opposite one another and the cooling device mounting tabs are opposite one another. The flexible plate is a one-piece construction made from sheet metal, plastic, or metal castings. The flexible plate has a band with all the tabs mounted on the inside of the band, or one set of tabs mounted on the outside of the band.
