Abstract

A system includes a thermal interface material (TIM) to transfer heat from a die to a heat spreader. The system includes a heat transfer subsystem disposed on the backside surface of the die. In one embodiment, the heat transfer subsystem comprises a first heat transfer material and a second heat transfer material discretely disposed within the first heat transfer material. A method of bonding a die to a heat spreader uses a die-referenced process as opposed to a substrate-referenced process.
