Thermal management device comprising thermally conductive heat spreader with electrically isolated through-hole vias

摘要

A thermally conductive heat spreader is disclosed comprising one or more electrically isolated through-hole vias to provide, for instance, one or more thermal management layers having one or more electrically insulated and electrically conductive through-hole vias in a microelectronic module for the rerouting of one or more electrical signals to one or more layers in a stack of integrated circuit chip layers.;The method of the invention comprises disposing an electrically conductive member within an aperture in a heat spreader blank wherein the electrically conductive member is electrically insulated from the heat spreader blank by means of a dielectric layer to provide a vertical through-hole via for the vertical routing of an electrical signal through the heat spreader.
