Liquid At Normal Operating Temperature Of Device (epo) Patents (Class 257/E23.139)
  • Publication number: 20120068326
    Abstract: A tamper-resistant microchip package contains fluid- or nanofluid-filled capsules, channels, or reservoirs, wherein the fluids, either alone or in combination, can destroy circuitry by etching, sintering, or thermally destructing when reverse engineering of the device is attempted. The fluids are released when the fluid-filled cavities are cut away for detailed inspection of the microchip. Nanofluids may be used for the sintering process, and also to increase the thermal conductivity of the fluid for die thermal management. Through-vias and micro vias may be incorporated into the design to increase circuitry destruction efficacy by improving fluid/chip contact. Thermal interface materials may also be utilized to facilitate chip cooling.

  • Publication number: 20090057865
    Abstract: An LGA structure is provided having at least one semiconductor device over a substrate and a mechanical load apparatus over the semiconductor device. The structure includes a load-distributing material between the mechanical load apparatus and the substrate. Specifically, the load-distributing material is proximate a first side of the semiconductor device and a second side of the semiconductor device opposite the first side of the semiconductor device. Furthermore, the load-distributing material completely surrounds the semiconductor device and contacts the mechanical load apparatus, the substrate, and the semiconductor device. The load-distributing material can be thermally conductive and comprises an elastomer and/or a liquid. The load-distributing material comprises a LGA interposer adapted to connect the substrate to a PCB below the substrate and/or a second substrate. Moreover, the load-distributing material comprises compressible material layers and rigid material layers.
