Abstract
A high performance, low cost multi-chip module package using a heatsink as a substrate with thin film wiring techniques or multilayered wiring techniques for interconnection of the chips on the surface of the module and a solder column grid array or solder ball grid array for interconnection to the next level of packaging (printed circuit board). The columns or balls create a space between the board and module with the chips being in the space and provide the required interconnect density.
