Abstract
A thermally enhanced chip carrier package with a built-in heat sink for semi-conductor integrated circuit chips. A circuit substrate is formed of a suitable thermoplastic such as PPS or LCP with a center opening and a metal attachment ring for attaching a heat sink to either the top or bottom thereof with solder. A casing is further formed on the substrate outwardly of the aperture and the heat sink mounted thereacross, the casing being comprised of the suitable thermoplastic and being chemically fused to a portion of the circuit substrate to create a moisture seal therebetween. An encapsulant for filling the cavity within the casing and a lid may also be utilized to further secure and seal the chip mounted to the heat sink secured therein.
