Abstract
A hybrid device package comprising a baseplate, a balanced composite structure (BCS) on the baseplate, a first IC on the BCS, and at least one additional IC physically coupled to the first IC. The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) for the stack formed from the BCS and the first IC is arranged to be approximately equal to that of the baseplate, thereby reducing the thermal stress to which the at least one additional IC is subjected when cooled to its operating temperature which might otherwise result in physical damage to the IC. The baseplate is preferably an alumina ceramic baseplate. In one embodiment, the first IC is a readout IC (ROIC), the at least one additional IC is a detector array IC which is on the ROIC, and the hybrid device package is a focal plane array (FPA).
