The present disclosure provides a printed circuit board with a plated through hole. The through hole covered by a solder pad at both ends of the through hole. At least two pins are plugged into the through hole, one of which with its head end being thermal contacted with one of the solder pads. Another pin's head end being thermal contacted with the other solder pad. The at least two pins are thermal contacted with one another. Thermal dissipation rate is increased with the structure of the through hole.

A manufacturing method of a package carrier is provided. A substrate having a through hole is provided, wherein a profile of the through hole from top view is a first rounded rectangular. A heat conducting slug is disposed inside the through hole, wherein the heat conducting slug and an inner wall of the through hole are separated with a gap, and a profile of the heat conducting slug from top view is a second rounded rectangular. An insulating material is filled in the through hole so as to fix the heat conducting slug in the through hole. A conductive through hole structure, a first and a second patterned circuit layers are formed. The first and the second patterned circuit layers are respectively formed on two opposite sides of the substrate. The conductive through hole structure penetrates the substrate and connects portions of the first and the second patterned circuit layers.

A circuit board includes a plurality of conductive track levels disposed one above the other and insulation layers arranged between each of two adjacent conductive track levels. The circuit board includes a thermally conductive element, which includes ceramic, disposed between a first external insulation layer and a second external insulation layer.

A semiconductor package includes a processor die (e.g., an SoC) and one or more memory die (e.g., DRAM) coupled to a ball grid array (BGA) substrate. The processor die and the memory die are coupled to opposite sides of the BGA substrate using terminals (e.g., solder balls). The package may be coupled to a printed circuit board (PCB) using one or more terminals positioned around the perimeter of the processor die. The PCB may include a recess with at least part of the processor die being positioned in the recess. Positioning at least part of the processor die in the recess reduces the overall height of the semiconductor package assembly. A voltage regulator may also be coupled to the BGA substrate on the same side as the processor die with at least part of the voltage regulator being positioned in the recess a few millimeters from the processor die.

The present disclosure relates to a microelectronic package, which includes a base substrate, a perimeter wall, an electronic component, and a mold compound. The perimeter wall extends from a periphery of the base substrate to form a cavity that is over the base substrate and within the perimeter wall. The electronic component is mounted on the base substrate and exposed to the cavity. The electronic component is thermally coupled to a thermal management component, which extends through the base substrate and conducts heat generated from the electronic component. The electronic component is also electrically coupled to a wall signal via, which extends through the perimeter wall and transmits signals. The mold compound resides over the base substrate and within the cavity, so as to encapsulate the electronic component.

High thermal performance microelectronic modules containing sinter-bonded heat dissipation structures are provided, as are methods for the fabrication thereof. In various embodiments, the method includes the steps or processes of providing a module substrate, such as a circuit board, including a cavity having metallized sidewalls. A sinter-bonded heat dissipation structure is formed within the cavity. The sintered-bonded heat dissipation structure is formed, at least in part, by inserting a prefabricated thermally-conductive body, such as a metallic (e.g., copper) coin into the cavity. A sinter precursor material (e.g., a metal particle-containing paste) is dispensed or otherwise applied into the cavity and onto surfaces of the prefabricated thermally-conductive body before, after, or concurrent with insertion of the prefabricated thermally-conductive body. The sinter precursor material is then sintered at a maximum processing temperature to produce a sinter bond layer bonding the prefabricated thermally-conductive body to the metallized sidewalls of the module substrate.

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) may include a heat sink configured to draw heat from a surface-mounted component through the PCB toward a side of the PCB opposite a side having the surface-mounted component. The heat sinks may be single piece components that extend at least partially through the PCB. In some embodiments, the PCB may include connectors that interface between the PCB and a heat sink, or possibly other components.

Disclosed is a wiring board having at least one insulating layer and at least one wiring layer arranged to overlap the insulating layer. The insulating layer includes: an arrangement portion at which the wiring layer is arranged; and a side wall portion which surrounds at least a part of the wiring layer arranged at the arrangement portion in a plane direction. The side wall portion has a planar shape that restricts movement and rotation of the wiring layer in the plane direction.

Among other things, an electronics assembly within an imaging system is provided. The electronics assembly includes a circuit board assembly through which a signal is delivered. The circuit board assembly defines a heat transfer opening between a first side and a second side. An electronics component is electrically coupled to the first side of the circuit board assembly. A heat transfer component supports the electronics component. The heat transfer component includes a base portion coupled to the electronics component and to the circuit board assembly. The heat transfer component includes a heat dissipation portion extending through the heat transfer opening of the circuit board assembly. The heat dissipation portion dissipates heat generated by the electronics component.
