Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 8:
9. An apparatus comprising:
a layer having a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact located at a distance from the first electrical contact, the layer being made of an electrically insulating material;
a die comprising a semiconductor material having a first coefficient of thermal expansion and having a first terminal on a first side of the die and a second terminal on a second side of the die that is opposite to the first side, the first side of the die arranged on the layer along a plane, the first terminal of the die connected to the first electrical contact; and
a conductor having a second coefficient of thermal expansion that is greater than the first coefficient of thermal expansion, having a first end connected to the second terminal of the die, having a second end connected to the second electrical contact, and having a first portion adjacent to the first end that deflects away from the second side of the die at an acute angle relative to the plane.
