Abstract: A technique is provided for dissipating heat from an integrated circuit within a package. A thermally conductive strip may be disposed adjacent to an integrated circuit die before packaging. The package is formed around the integrated circuit and the thermally conductive strip such that a portion of the thermally conductive strip extends through the package. Heat is conducted from the integrated circuit through the thermally conductive strip to the environment surrounding the package. A thermally conductive strip may be installed within a package by an adhesive or other mechanical means. A thermally conductive strip may be comprised of a metallic foil or other thermally conductive material.

Abstract: A technique is provided for dissipating heat from an integrated circuit within a package. A thermally conductive strip may be installed between an integrated circuit and a substrate before packaging. The package is formed from molded epoxy formed around the integrated circuit and substrate with a portion of the thermally conductive strip extending beyond the confines of the package. Heat is conducted from the integrated circuit through the thermally conductive strip to the environment surrounding the package. A thermally conductive strip may be installed within a package by an adhesive or other mechanically means. A thermally conductive strip may be comprised of a metallic foil or other thermally conductive material.

Abstract: A method and device for providing a gate blocking material. Specifically, a method for molding a substrate having known good and bad sites thereon, by blocking the gate area of the bad sites during the molding process. A blocking material or an injection pin are used to interrupt the flow of molding compound through an injection molding system, and thereby prevent molding compound from flowing onto the known bad substrate sites.
