Abstract

A combination heat sink (18, 41, 43) and circuit interface comprises a metallic wafer (15) disposed between an integrated circuit (11) and a printed circuit board (14) in a land grid array package (10). A frame (13) for the integrated circuit (11) is nested within the heat sink (18, 41, 43) and a latch (30) is pivotably mounted on the frame (13) for retaining the overall package (10). The circuit interface comprises a plurality of flexible electrical connectors (19) mounted on the wafer (15).
