Multiple chip module (MCM) structures are described. In an embodiment, a module includes a first and second components on the top side of a module substrate, a stiffener structure mounted on the top side of the module substrate, and a lid mounted on the stiffener structure and covering the first component and the second component. The stiffener is joined to the lid within a trench formed in a roof of the lid.

A chip package assembly and method for fabricating the same are provided which utilize a conformal lid to improve the chip package assembly from deformation. In one example, a chip package assembly is provided that includes integrated circuit (IC) dies, a packaging substrate, and a lid. The packaging substrate has a die receiving area that is defined by the laterally outermost extents of the IC dies mounted to the packaging substrate. The lid a surface that includes a first region and a second region. The first region is disposed over the first IC die while the second region of the lid extends below the second surface the first IC die and is spaced above the packaging substrate. At least a portion of the second region of the lid is overlapped with the die receiving area.

Disclosed herein are integrated circuit (IC) packages with asymmetric adhesion material regions, as well as related methods and devices. For example, in some embodiments, an IC package may include a solder thermal interface material (STIM) between a die of the IC package and a lid of the IC package. The lid of the IC package may include an adhesion material region, in contact with the STIM, that is asymmetric with respect to the die.

A semiconductor package includes a multilayer substrate, a device die, an insulating encapsulant, and a shielding structure. The multilayer substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The multilayer substrate includes through holes, and each of the through holes extends from the first surface to the second surface. The device die is disposed on the first surface of the multilayer substrate. The insulating encapsulant is disposed on the first surface of the multilayered substrate and encapsulating the device die. The shielding structure is disposed over the first surface of the multilayer substrate. The shielding structure includes a cover body and conductive pillars. The cover body covers the device die and the insulating encapsulant. The conductive pillars are connected to the cover body and fitted into the through holes of the multilayer substrate.

Disclosed herein are channeled lids for integrated circuit (IC) packages, as well as related methods and devices. For example, in some embodiments, an IC package may include a die between a lid and a package substrate. A bottom surface of the lid may include a channel that at least partially overlaps the die.

A power semiconductor module includes: a substrate with a metallization layer attached to a dielectric insulation layer and a semiconductor body mounted to the metallization layer; a housing at least partly enclosing the substrate and having sidewalls and a cover that at least partly covers an opening formed by the sidewalls and has a flexible portion; and a press-on pin having arranged on the substrate or semiconductor body. A first end of the press-on pin faces the substrate or semiconductor body and extends towards the cover such that a second end of the press-on pin contacts the flexible portion of the cover. The substrate in an area vertically below the press-on pin has a first spring constant k.sub.1 in a vertical direction that is perpendicular to a top surface of the substrate. The flexible portion of the cover has a second spring constant k.sub.2, where 0.5*k.sub.1≤k.sub.2≤5*k.sub.1.

A semiconductor package includes a module substrate having opposite top and bottom surfaces, a semiconductor chip provided with bumps and mounted on the top surface of the module substrate via the bumps, and a metal member having a top portion disposed at a level higher than the semiconductor chip with reference to the top surface of the module substrate and including the semiconductor chip in plan view and a side portion extending from the top portion toward the module substrate. The module substrate includes a first metal film disposed on or in at least one of the bottom surface and an internal layer of the module substrate. The first metal film is electrically connected to the bumps and reaches a side surface of the module substrate. The side portion is thermally coupled to the first metal film at the side surface of the module substrate.

An electronics package includes a thermal lid over a flip chip component such that the thermal lid is in contact with a surface of a flip chip component and one or more thermal vias in a substrate on which the flip chip component is mounted. The thermal lid dissipates heat from the flip chip component by way of the thermal vias to improve the thermal performance of the electronics package.

A package packaged with a cap. The package features trenches, through holes, and a non-conductive coupling element forming a locking mechanism integrated embedded or integrated within a substrate. The package has a cap coupled to the non-conductive coupling element through ultrasonic plastic welding. The package protects the dice from an outside environment or external stresses or both. A method is desired to form package to reduce glue overflow defects in the package. Fabrication of the package comprises drilling holes in a substrate; forming trenches in the substrate; forming a non-conductive coupling element in the through holes and the trenches to form a locking mechanism; allowing the non-conductive coupling element to harden and cure; coupling a die or dice to the substrate; and coupling a cap to the non-conductive coupling element to protect the die or dice from an outside environment or external stresses or both.

A package includes a substrate having a conductive layer, and the conductive layer comprises an exposed portion. A die stack is disposed over the substrate and electrically connected to the conductive layer. A high thermal conductivity material is disposed over the substrate and contacting the exposed portion of the conductive layer. The package further includes a contour ring over and contacting the high thermal conductivity material.
