A decoupling package stack including a circuit board, a substrate mounted
on and electrically coupled to the circuit board, a semiconductor die
mounted on and electrically coupled to the substrate a deformable
elastomeric support mounted on the substrate, one or more mounts coupled
to the circuit board and a heatsink. The heatsink includes a contoured
heatsink base having a spacer attached thereto, the spacer operable to
determine and maintain a desired bondline of a first thermal interface
material (TIM) between the semiconductor die and the contoured heatsink
base. The heatsink also includes one or more contact portions for
contacting the deformable elastomeric support and one or more compressing
surfaces coupled to the one or more mounts. A method for assembling a
decoupling package stack.
