Abstract
A downset edge integrated heat spreader is disclosed. The downset edge can be formed to an industrially accepted flatness with a single stamping operation. The downset edge can provide a surface for fastening the downset edge integrated heat spreader to a mounting substrate. The downset edge can also provide a component recess for mounting a component near a processor, but on the mounting substrate. The downset edge can also provide a warp and bend resistant structure during ordinary field use.
