Claim Text:
1. An assembly comprising: a first substrate comprising a plurality of first contact pads; a plurality of modules attached to the first substrate, at least one said module comprising a semiconductor integrated circuit, the module comprising one or more contact pads each of which is attached to a respective first contact pad; a reinforcement frame comprising one or more cavities, the reinforcement frame being attached to the first substrate, wherein at least part of each said module is located in a corresponding cavity in the reinforcement frame, wherein at least two said modules have different heights and are at least partially located in the same cavity in the reinforcement frame; wherein the reinforcement frame comprises a through-hole; and the assembly further comprises one or more heat sinks each of which overlies the through-hole, wherein at least one said heat sink overlying the through-hole is attached to the reinforcement frame and/or to at least one said module at least partially located in the through-hole, each said heat sink having a higher thermal conductivity than the reinforcement frame.
