Abstract

See full text

A multi-chip electronic package and methods of manufacture are provided. The method includes adjusting a piston position of one or more pistons with respect to one or more chips on a chip carrier. The adjusting includes placing a chip shim on the chips and placing a seal shim between a lid and the chip carrier. The seal shim is thicker than the chip shim. The adjusting further includes lowering the lid until the pistons contact the chip shim. The method further includes separating the lid and the chip carrier and removing the chip shim and the seal shim. The method further includes dispensing thermal interface material on the chips and lowering the lid until a gap filled with the thermal interface material is about a particle size of the thermal interface material. The method further includes sealing the lid to the chip carrier with sealant.
