Condensed memory matrix

A condensed memory matrix is fabricated by conductively connecting the attachment bumps of a substrate with the attachment bumps of a wafer of DRAM chips and physically bonding the juxtaposed surfaces of the substrate and the wafer with a dielectric curable resin. An array of heat fins is bonded to the inactive surface of the wafer by a thermally conductive curable resin.
