ABSTRACT:
Described are semiconductor package devices with improved reliability and methods of manufacturing thereof. In one embodiment, a package device is disclosed that includes a chip having an active surface and a coupling surface opposite the active surface, where the chip has one or more integrated circuits and bumps. The device also includes a thermal spreader thermally coupled to the coupling surface of the chip for dissipating heat generated by the chip, and a thermal interface material located between the thermal spreader and the coupling surface of the chip for improving the heat dissipation. In addition, the device also includes a boundary material located between the thermal spreader and the coupling surface of the chip, where the boundary material is configured to surround a perimeter of the thermal interface material to maintain the thermal interface material between the thermal spreader and the coupling surface of the chip.
