Abstract
A method, system, and apparatus for improved IC device packaging is described. In an aspect, an (IC) device package includes an IC die having at one or more contact pads, each contact pad located at a corresponding hotspot on a surface of the IC die. The package also includes a thermally conductive interposer which is thermally coupled to the IC die at the contact pads. In another aspect, an underfill material fills a space between the IC die and the interposer. The interposer may also be electrically coupled to the IC die. In an aspect, the interposer and the IC die are coupled through thermal interconnects or 'nodules.'
