Abstract
To minimize the warpage of an organic substrate that supports at least one electrical hardware component (e.g., a system-in-package module), a bottom surface of a lid is attached to a top surface of the electrical hardware component. The lid includes a leg that extends from the bottom surface of the lid towards a top surface of the substrate. A portion of the leg closest to the substrate may move relative to the substrate. As the lid warps, the lid does not also cause distortion of the substrate. The leg may be a flange that extends at least a portion of the width or at least a portion of the length of the lid, may be a post located at the perimeter of the lid, or may be any other portion extending from above the electrical component towards the substrate.
