A semiconductor die carrier includes a housing that defines a cavity for holding one or more semiconductor dies, electrically conductive leads, and a cover plate having an aperture formed therethrough. The housing includes insulative side walls and a end plate joined to the side walls. The side walls and the end plate may be molded together as a one-piece unit. One or more of the side walls includes openings for receiving the leads so that an internal lead section extends within the cavity and an external lead section extends from the side walls external of the housing. The side walls may include a recess for receiving the cover plate. The aperture in the cover plate allows a semiconductor die held in the housing to be exposed to the environment.

A multi-chip module includes a housing having insulative side walls and an end plate, conductive leads extending from the side walls, integrated circuit (IC) dies mounted to the end plate, and one or more interconnect dies mounted to the end plate. The end plate is made from a heat sink material, such as copper. Each interconnect die is positioned between a pair of the IC dies. Electrically conductive material connects the IC dies to the interconnect die, connects the IC dies to the conductive leads, and connects the interconnect dies to the conductive leads. The interconnect dies function to interconnect the IC dies and to interconnect the IC dies to the conductive leads. The interconnect die may be embodied by wiring layers formed on a silicon substrate.
