Multiple Chip Module Trenched Lid and Low Coefficient of Thermal Expansion Stiffener Ring

Abstract:

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.
