| 1. A system for mounting an integrated circuit, comprising:
a substrate having a surface and having a plurality of substrate contacts disposed on the surface;
a mounting structure mounted to the substrate, the mounting structure comprising an electrically insulating surface on which
are disposed a plurality of mounting structure contacts and a heat spreading region, wherein at least one of the mounting
structure contacts is electrically connected to one of the substrate contacts; and
an integrated circuit mounted on the heat spreading region of mounting structure, the integrated circuit comprising a plurality
of integrated circuit bond pads, wherein at least one of the integrated circuit bond pads is electrically connected to the
at least one of the mounting structure contacts.
