  • Chip carrier
    Patent number: 4782381
    Abstract: A chip carrier for carrying integrated circuit chips is provided. Instead of placing individual circuit components either in the chips or next to them, the components are placed in or near the substrate of the chip carrier. This frees up expensive real-estate for logic chips at the chip level presently occupied by the components. The substrate of the carrier acts as a large heat sink to dissipate power generated by the components.
