Claim 6:
7. An apparatus, comprising:
a substrate;
at least one integrated circuit device having a first surface and an opposing second surface, wherein the first surface of the first integrated circuit device is electrically attached to the substrate; and
a heat dissipation device thermally coupled to the second surface of the at least one integrated circuit device, wherein the heat dissipation device comprises at least one isotropic thermally conductive section laterally adjacent at least one anisotropic thermally conductive section; and
a thermal interface material, wherein a first section of the thermal interface material contacts the at least one anisotropic thermally conductive section of the heat dissipation device wherein a second section of the thermal interface material contacts the at least one isotropic thermally conductive section of the heat dissipation device and wherein both of the first and second sections of the thermal interface material contact the second surface of the at least one integrated circuit device.
