To accommodate high power densities associated with high-performance integrated circuits, an integrated circuit (IC) package includes a heat-dissipating structure in which heat is dissipated from a surface of one or more dice to a heat spreader. The heat spreader has a fluid-conducting channel formed therein, and a fluid coolant may be circulated through the channel via a micropump. In an embodiment, the channel is located at or near a surface of the heat spreader, and a heat-generating IC is in thermal contact with the heat spreader. In an embodiment, the IC is a thinned die that is coupled to the heat spreader via a thinned thermal interface material. Methods of fabrication, as well as application of the package to an electronic assembly and to an electronic system, are also described. |
