Abstract
An integrated circuit package for improved warp resistance and heat dissipation is described. The LOC package includes: an integrated circuit die having an upper, active face, and a multi-layered, substantially planar lead frame mounted to the active face of the die, where the lead frame is preferably comprised of layers configured as Cu/INVAR/Cu or Cu/Alloy 42/Cu. The choice of the middle layer of the lead frame is selected to minimize the warping forces on the package such that the coefficient of thermal expansion of the composite lead frame approximates that of silicon. The copper layers of the lead frame provide improved heat dissipation.

A method of manufacturing an integrated circuit package having improved heat dissipation and warp resistance, comprising the steps of:
- a) providing an integrated circuit die having an upper surface;
- b) mounting a multi-layered, substantially planar lead frame to said upper surface of said die;
- and
- c) electrically connecting the multi-layered, substantially planar lead frame to said upper surface of said die;
- wherein each of the layers of the multi-layered, substantially planar lead frame are formed with materials selected so that warping forces associated with said package are balanced.
