Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing an electronic device having multiple components with improved thermal isolation between components, the method comprising: applying an aerogel coating to at least a first surface of a first component; and connecting the first component to a second component, with the aerogel coating applied on the first surface and positioned between the first surface and the second component, wherein the aerogel coating provides a thermal isolation barrier reducing heat dissipation between the first component and the second component; wherein the first component and the second component are a first Integrated Circuit (IC) and a second IC; and wherein the applying an aerogel coating comprises applying the aerogel coating to a substrate of the first IC, wherein the applying of the aerogel coating to the substrate of the first IC reduces thermal conductivity in the electronic device and enables an inclusion within the electronic device of one or more higher power dissipative devices, while reducing thermal stress to an IC board and surrounding components.
