Abstract

An integrated circuit system has a die with first and second sides, and contains high frequency circuitry operating at mm-wave frequencies. The system also has a plurality of interfaces (on the first side) in electrical communication with the high frequency circuitry, and a heat sink having a bottom surface with a first region and an aperture region. The first region is in physical and conductive contact with the die, while the aperture region forms a concavity with an inner concave surface that is spaced from the die.
