Method For Direct Attachment Of A Chip To A Cooling Member

View page
US Patent:
6413353, Jul 2, 2002
Filed:
Feb 1, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/241238
Inventors:
Frank Louis Pompeo - Montgomery NY
Alain A. Caron - Quebec, CA
Jeffrey Thomas Coffin - Pleasant Valley NY
Jeffrey Allen Zitz - Poughkeepsie NY
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
B32B 3126
US Classification:
1563073, 438119
Abstract:
A semiconductor chip module uses a silicone adhesive between the semiconductor chip and a cap, said adhesive having sufficient bond strength to secure said cap to said chip without additional mechanical constraint while providing a direct thermally conductive path and permitting sufficient heat flow from said chip to said cap to maintain steady state operation of said semiconductor chip. The preferred silicone adhesive comprises a primerless, two-part polysiloxane-based adhesive made by reacting polydimethyl siloxane, an organosilicon compound, a polysiloxane, and a silane, in the presence of a catalyst.

High Density Thermal Solution For Direct Attach Modules

View page
US Patent:
6657864, Dec 2, 2003
Filed:
Dec 16, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/320845
Inventors:
Warren D. Dyckman - Peekskill NY
Edward R. Pillai - Wappingers Falls NY
Jeffrey A. Zitz - Poughkeepsie NY
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
H05K 720
US Classification:
361704, 361718, 361719, 361708, 257706, 165 802, 165 803
Abstract:
A high power density thermal packaging solution. A highly efficient thermal path is provided using a lid of a unique design configuration that connects the chip back-side to both a heat sink and thermally conductive substrate vias thus establishing two thermal paths to carry heat from the die. The thermal interface between the chip back-side to lid and lid-to-substrate is enhanced with a thermally conductive elastomer. The heat is conducted through the substrate through thermal vias that are added to the perimeter of the substrate or which may be configured from preexisting electrical shielding structures that connect the top surface of the substrate to the bottom of the package. The bottom surface connection then conducts the heat to a copper ground plane in the printed circuit card. The heat from the die to the heat sink is transferred in the conventional method using the thin layer of thermally conductive elastomer to complete the thermal path from chip to lid to heat sink.

Chip Cooling

View page
US Patent:
6774482, Aug 10, 2004
Filed:
Dec 27, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/330742
Inventors:
Evan George Colgan - Chestnut Ridge NY
John Harold Magerlein - Yorktown Heights NY
Robert Luke Wisnieff - Ridgefield CT
Jeffrey Allen Zitz - Poughkeepsie NY
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
H01L 2334
US Classification:
257712, 257700, 257707, 257713, 257720, 257730
Abstract:
In an integrated circuit structure, such as in an MCM or in an SCM, a particulate thermally conductive conformable material, such as a thermal paste, is applied between a heat-generating chip and a cooling plate. Modification of the microstructure of at least one of the two nominally parallel surfaces which are in contact with the material is provided in a discrete pattern of sloped recesses. The largest particles in the material preferentially migrate downward into the recesses. The average thickness of the conductive paste is reduced to below the diameter of the largest particles dispersed in the material, providing improved cooling.

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
H01R012/00
US Classification:
439 73, 257712, 361704, 439526
Abstract:
A system and method to form a reworkable compression seal between an electronic module and a cap are disclosed. The system and method include an electronic module having a tapered edge configured on at least a portion of the edge defining a perimeter of the electronic module and the cap configured with an opening to receive the electronic module therein. A compression seal is disposed with the cap and is configured to surround one or more chips or other electronic components on the electronic module to form a seal between the electronic module and the cap. A plurality of side loaders are operably coupled to the cap and aligned to receive the tapered edge on the electronic module. Each side loader is configured to engage the tapered edge and provide sufficient compressive force to the compression seal disposed between the electronic module and the cap.

Chip Package Having Chip Extension And Method

View page
US Patent:
7250576, Jul 31, 2007
Filed:
May 19, 2005
Appl. No.:
10/908615
Inventors:
Evan G. Colgan - Chestnut Ridge NY, US
David L. Edwards - Poughkeepsie NY, US
Benjamin V. Fasano - New Windsor NY, US
Kamal K. Sikka - Poughkeepsie NY, US
Jeffrey A. Zitz - Poughkeepsie NY, US
Wei Zou - Wappingers Falls NY, US
Assignee:
International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY
International Classification:
H05K 1/16
US Classification:
174260, 174252, 257707
Abstract:
A chip package including a chip extension for containing thermal interface material (TIM) and improves chip cooling, and a related method, are disclosed. In particular, the chip package includes a chip, a cooling structure coupled to the chip via a TIM, and a chip extension may be thermally coupled to an outer edge of the chip. A TIM placed between the chip and the cooling structure is contained during thermal cycling by the chip extension such that void formation at the edge of the chip, which can move between the chip and cooling structure, is suppressed. The chip extension also improves lateral heat dissipation by providing a greater thermal contact area between the cooling structure and the chip and, if needed, the substrate at a much lower cost than using larger die with lower production unit output from a wafer.
