Abstract
Removing heat generated by an operating IC chip from both the chip and the electronics package containing the chip is essential for proper system operation and to increase the life of the electronics package. Using an air permeable lid with the electronic package increases the heat transfer away from the IC chip and electronics package, thereby cooling the chip and the package.
