Stacked configuration for integrated circuit devices
First Claim
1. An integrated circuit packaging assembly comprising:
- an interconnect substrate in the form of a flexible interconnect circuit web having plurality of finger portions, at least respective one of said finger portions having an aperture therethrough sized to accommodate an integrated circuit device, a respective integrated circuit device passing through and thereby being captured within the aperture of said at least a respective finger portion and having leads extending from a first surface of said respective integrated circuit device and being attached to interconnect links on an adjacent first surface of said at least respective one of said finger portions, and wherein said finger portions are folded together in the form of a stack; and
a plurality of heat sinks interleaved with the folded finger portions such that a respective heat sink engages and is in thermal contact with a second surface of a respective captured integrated circuit device adjacent to a second surface of a respective folded finger portion.

Abstract
A stacked packaging assembly for a plurality of integrated circuit devices employs a web of flexible interconnect material folded into a `layered` arrangement of parallel web fingers onto which a plurality of integrated circuit devices are surface-mounted. The leads of the integrated circuit devices are attached to interconnect links of the flexible interconnect web. A plurality of heat sink plates are interleaved with the folded web fingers of the stack, so as to engage the integrated circuit devices mounted on the web fingers. The heat sink plates are retained by thermally conductive spacer blocks along their edges. The spacer blocks are clamped together in a compact laminate structure, so as to form a rigid support which relieves mechanical stresses at the folds of the web fingers.
