Abstract

The bottom and side surfaces of an electronic device, such as an integrated circuit chip or a multichip assembly, are surrounded by a soft gel medium. The gel medium is laterally confined by a rigid plastic rim that is epoxy-bonded in place along its perimeter. A plate, made of plastic or metal, can be attached to the top surface of the rim, in order to provide a cover for the package.
