Abstract

Abstract An integrated circuit device package is integrated with a heat dissipation member to reduce the number of junctions in a packaged integrated circuit device. For example, the integrated circuit device package may include a substrate and a thermally conductive lid coupled to a first surface of the substrate, forming a closed cavity which encloses an integrated circuit die. The thermally conductive lid may be integrated with the heat dissipation member.
