Yuan,

If there is a definitive answer, I'd like to hear it as well.

I've seen vendors rate their packages' power handling ability
on such things as:

        * how hot can it get before it delaminates/melts;
        * thermal conductivity between die attach area to backside;
        * simple surface are of package backside; and/or
        * what's the hottest chip someone has ever put in their package.

If there is some industry-standard along these lines, I'd like to
see it.
