Abstract: Top-side cooling of Radio Frequency (RF) products in air cavity packages is provided. According to one aspect, an air cavity package comprises a substrate, a RF component mounted to the substrate, and a lid structure comprising a first material and being mounted to the substrate that covers the RF component such that a cavity is formed within the lid structure and about the RF component. At least one opening is provided in a top portion of the lid. The air cavity package also comprises a heat transfer structure comprising a second material and comprising a heat path extending from the top surface of the substrate through the opening(s) in the lid to the top outer surface of the air cavity package to provide a top-side thermal interface. In one embodiment, the lid is comprised of a molded material that absorbs RF signals and the heat transfer structure is metal.

Abstract: Embodiments include but are not limited to apparatuses and systems including a package having stud bumps for die alignment. A package may include a package substrate, and a plurality of stud bumps coupled to the package substrate. The stud bumps may define a die region of the package substrate in which movement of a die disposed within the die region is restricted prior to attachment of the die to the package substrate, wherein the plurality of stud bumps comprise a profile that is less than a profile of the die when attached to the package substrate. Other embodiments may be described.
