Abstract

A system and method for dissipating heat from a package and reducing interference between signaling pins is disclosed. The system includes a circuit substrate that includes a dielectric layer and at least one metal layer having an external surface. A plurality of metal posts is disposed on the external surface that function to a least one of dissipate heat from the circuit substrate, shield interfering signals between the signaling pins, and interact with mounting substrates on corresponding componentry. One or more metal posts are merged, increasing the interference shielding and heat dissipation functions of the metal posts.
