Abstract

A flip-chip circuit arrangement having improved thermal management includes a base substrate having a top surface which includes one or more bond pads thereon. The arrangement further includes a semiconductor substrate having circuitry and one or more bond pads thereon, wherein the one or more bond pads on the semiconductor substrate correspond to the one or more bond pads on the base substrate. The semiconductor substrate has one or more channels which extend from a top surface to a bottom surface thereof and the channels facilitate a transfer of heat due to power dissipation of the circuitry away from the semiconductor substrate.
