Abstract

Semiconductor package structures are provided which are designed to have liquid coolers integrally packaged with first level chip modules. In particular, apparatus for integrally packaging a liquid cooler device within a first level chip package structure include structures in which a liquid cooler device is thermally coupled directly to the back side of an integrated circuit chip flip-chip mounted on flexible chip carrier substrate. The liquid cooler device is mechanically coupled to the package substrate through a metallic stiffener structure that is bonded to the flexible package substrate to provide mechanical rigidity to the flexible package substrate.
