Stress-relieving heatsink structure and method of attachment to an electronic package

摘要

A stress-relieving heatsink structure and method of forming thereof for an electronic package, for instance, that including a semiconductor chip package which is mounted on a wired carrier, such as a circuitized substrate. The heatsink structure is constituted from a plurality of base structures which are joined along slits so as to impart a degree of flexibility to the electronic package inhibiting the forming of stresses tending to cause delamination of the package components.
