Thermal mismatch compensation technique for integrated circuit assemblies

Techniques for minimizing stress induced by temperature changes in an integrated circuit (e.g., focal plane array or processor) or other such assemblies that include materials having mismatched coefficients of thermal expansion/contraction are disclosed.

Zusammenfassung:Techniques for minimizing stress induced by temperature changes in an integrated circuit (e.g., focal plane array or processor) or other such assemblies that include materials having mismatched coefficients of thermal expansion/contraction are disclosed. A thermal interface including a flexible comb-like pattern enables compensation for mismatched coefficients thereby reducing thermal-related stress.
