Abstract
An integrated circuit package, and integrated circuit assembly having such a package, includes a base portion and a cover portion which cooperatively enclose an integrated circuit chip. The base and cover portions are formed of composite material and have matching coefficients of thermal expansion. Because the base and cover portions each match the other's thermal expansions and contractions, no stresses are generated in the package from heating and cooling during and following operation of the integrated circuit chip, and no such thermally produced physical stresses are transferred to the circuit chip to shorten its life. A version of the package includes plural lamina, and may include facial metallic coating layers on the lamina for shielding, electromagnetic shielding, and electrical interconnection of the integrated circuit chip. Another version of the package utilizes the facial metallic coating layers to join portions of the package by soldering.
