Patents by Inventor Manjit Dhindsa

Manjit Dhindsa has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Electronic packaging apparatus and method
    Patent number: 7672132
    Abstract: An electronic assembly includes a substrate, a device attached to the substrate, and a thermally conductive heat spreader covering the device and at least a portion of the substrate. A metal substantially fills the space between the device and the thermally conductive heat spreader. A method includes attaching at least one die to a substrate, placing a thermally conductive heat spreader over the die, and injecting a molten metal material into the space between the thermally conductive heat spreader and the die.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 5, 2006
    Date of Patent: March 2, 2010
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Thomas J Fitzgerald, Carl L. Deppisch, Manjit Dhindsa, Mark Norwil, Matthew J. Schaenzer
  • Thermally coupling an integrated heat spreader to a heat sink base
    Publication number: 20080156457
    Abstract: The base of a heat sink may be selectively plated with a solder wetting material and soldered to an integral heat spreader also selectively plated with gold. In another embodiment, the solder may be applied in the form of an insert made up of an electrical heating wire sandwiched between indium foil which acts as solder when heated by the intervening wire.
    Type: Application
