US Patent 7656017 Integrated circuit package system with thermo-mechanical interlocking substrates

An integrated circuit package system includes providing a plurality of substrates; inserting a receptor in one of the substrates, the receptor held in and not extending through the one of the substrates; inserting a conductive post in another of the substrates; mounting the one of the substrates and the another of the substrates over one another with the conductive post engaging the receptor to thermally interlock without a separate bonding material; and mounting an integrated circuit mounted on the one of the substrates or the another of the substrates.
