Abstract:
A system for cooling memory modules mounted in parallel on a printed circuit board may include a coolant tube installed in parallel between two of the memory modules, and a heat spreader disposed in parallel between the two memory modules. The heat spreader may include a base having an outer surface thermally coupled to the coolant tube and first and second fins. The first fin has a first spring force toward a first of the two memory modules. The first spring force causes the first fin to provide contact pressure to the first memory module to thermally couple the first fin and the first memory module. The second fin has a second spring force toward a second of the two memory modules. The second spring force causes the second fin to provide contact pressure to the second memory module to thermally couple the second fin and the second memory module.
