A method includes bonding a first package component over a second package component, dispensing a first underfill between the first package component and the second package component, and bonding a third package component over the second package component. A second underfill is between the third package component and the second package component. The first underfill and the second underfill are different types of underfills.

A method of producing a recurrent neural network computer includes consecutive steps of providing a substrate with a first electrode; structuring the first electrode by etching using a first mask made of block copolymers, such that said electrode has free regions which are randomly spatially distributed; forming a resistive-RAM-type memory layer on the first structured electrode; forming a second electrode on the memory layer; and structuring the second electrode by etching, using a second mask made of block copolymers such that said electrode has free regions which are randomly spatially distributed.

A method for forming a board assembly includes identifying a location of a hot-spot on a semiconductor die and cutting an opening in a circuit board corresponding to the location of the identified hot-spot. A Chemical Vapor Deposition Diamond (CVDD) window is inserted into the opening. A layer of thermally conductive paste is applied over the CVDD window. The semiconductor die is placed over the layer of thermally conductive paste such that the CVDD window underlies the hot-spot and such that a surface of the semiconductor die is in direct contact with the layer of thermally conductive paste.

A method and apparatus for conducting heat away from a semiconductor die are disclosed. A board assembly is disclosed that includes a first circuit board having an opening extending through the first circuit board.
