Abstract

Chip packages and electronic devices are provided that include a thermal capacitance element that improves the operation of IC dies at elevated temperatures. In one example, a chip package is provided that includes an integrated circuit (IC) die, a lid thermally connected to the IC die, and a thermal capacitance element thermally connected to the lid. The thermal capacitance element includes a container and a capacitance material sealingly disposed in the container. The capacitance material has a phase transition temperature that is between 80 and 100 percent of a maximum designed operating temperature in degrees Celsius of the IC die.
