Abstract

A capping structure and capping method are presented for an electronics package having a substrate and one or more electronics devices disposed on the substrate. The capping structure includes a capping plate sized to cover the electronics device(s) disposed on the substrate, and two or more force transfer pins. The force transfer pins are disposed between the capping plate and the substrate so that when a force is applied to the capping plate or the substrate, the force is transferred therebetween via the force transfer pins. Various capping plate and pin configurations are presented.
