Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods that allow for secure access to websites and web-based applications and other resources available through the browser. Also described are systems and methods for invocation of a secure web container which may display data representative of a requesting party's application at a user's machine. The secure web container is invoked upon receipt of an API call from the requesting party. Thus, described in the present specification are systems and methods for constructing and destroying private, secure, browsing environments (a secure disposable web container), insulating the user and requesting parties from the threats associated with being online for the purposes of providing secure, policy-based interaction with a requesting party's online services.

Abstract: An electronic package device is disclosed including a microelectronic package and a heat sink positioned over the microelectronic package. A thermal interface element is positioned between the microelectronic package and the heat sink. The thermal interface element is elongated and has differing thicknesses along its length to enhance the dissipation of heat.

Abstract: A structure for controlled collapse chip connection disposed above a substrate. The substrate has two faces, with the second face being disposed substantially parallel to the first face. A contact pad in signal communication with the integrated circuit is disposed on the second face. A first passivation layer forms a first angled aperture substantially above the contact pad. The angled aperture increasing in circumference with increasing distance from the contact pad. A ball-limiting metallurgy (BLM) disposed within the aperture, with a center section in signal communication with the contact pad, an angled section extending away from the center portion and terminated in an edge section. A second passivation layer disposed on the first passivation layer, and partially encapsulating the edge region of the BLM with a second angled aperture. The shape and slope of the BLM and the second angled aperture controls the formation of a solder ball.

Abstract: An assembly and process for connecting opposed semiconductor structures (12,14) comprising at least two structures. An interconnect (16) between the structures (12,14) connects the structures in opposed spaced relation to each other. The interconnect comprises a first material (18) and a second material (20). The first material comprises a resiliently flexible center portion. The second material comprises an electrically conductive outer portion surrounding the first material. The second material and the first material provide the interconnect with a flexibly compliant characteristic for maintaining an electrically conductive relationship between the structures.

Abstract: A thermally enhanced ball grid array package for electronic components, with an electronic and a plurality of ceramic component carriers bonded to a metal heat sink, enhances thermal performance, reduces solder ball fatigue and reduces stresses between the ceramic component carriers and the heat sink. Bonding the ceramic component carriers to the heat sink reduces expansion induced stresses of the solder balls on the carriers. Plural ceramic component carriers, smaller than a single carrier would have to be for the same package, reduce stresses at the interfaces between the ceramic component carriers and the heat sink.

Abstract: A ceramic chip carrier is disclosed which preferably includes a ceramic substrate having a circuitized surface, at least one semiconductor chip mounted on the circuitized surface, and at least one pin which is mechanically and electrically connected to a contact pad on the circuitized surface. Each mechanical/electrical connection between a pin and a contact pad includes a conventional solder connection. In addition, each such solder connection is at least partially encapsulated in a material, including an epoxy resin, which is chosen in relation to the solder connection to enable the solder connection to withstand a standard thermal fatigue test.
