Ceramic LCC

[nikhil]

I have landed up with a Ceramic Leadless Chip Carrier IC. I am
clueless about how to go about integrating it into my design? Can
anybody help or point out any sites ?

Do you mean one of the new, tiny CLCC chips, or a plain old CLCC? AFAIK
they all reflow like anything else, you can hand-solder the old ones
with a steady hand and patience, but the new ones (with the big thermal
pad underneath) need to be reflowed.
