Abstract:
A system, such as a heat exchange assembly includes a support structure having a recess, a first support end, a second support end, and a support portion extending between the first and second support ends. The support structure further includes a plurality of projections protruding from a portion of a surface of the support structure, corresponding to the support portion. The support structure is a primary heat sink. The heat exchange assembly includes a vapor chamber having a casing and a wick disposed within the casing. The vapor chamber is disposed within the recess and coupled to a surface of the support structure such that the plurality of projections surrounds the vapor chamber. The casing includes a mid projected portion disposed at an evaporator portion of the vapor chamber. The first and second support ends, and the mid projected portion include a non-uniform surface configured to contact the circuit card.
