Abstract:
An integrated circuit device has a wiring substrate (2) on one surface of which integrated circuit chips (l) are mounted. A power source substrate (5) of a laminated structure is in contact with the opposite surface of the wiring substrate (2), the power source substrate being of alternate laminations of conductor layers (7) of a heat conductive metal and insulating layers (6) of an electrically insulating material, which layers are bonded together. Means such as pins (4) electrically connect the wiring substrate and the power source substrate to each other, and hence connect the chips (l) to the conductive layers (7), a heat radiating means is provided in at least one of either or both of the conductor layers (7) and the insulating layers (6) and radiates heat, which occurs in the power source substrate (5), to the exterior of the device. Such an integrated circuit device has a power source substrate (5) of a remarkably high heat radiating efficiency, and may permit a high density of integrated circuit chips (l) on the wiring substrate (2).

Abstract:
An electronic device includes a printed circuit board (PCB), the PCB including at least one grounding pad, an integrated circuit mounted on the PCB; an electrically-conductive frame mounted on the PCB and surrounding the integrated circuit, the frame being electrically connected to the at least one grounding pad, and a flexible electrically-conductive, high-thermal-conductivity heat spreader in electrical contact with the frame and in thermal contact with the integrated circuit. The frame, the heat spreader, and the at least one grounding pad form an EMI shield that reduces EMI leakage from the integrated circuit outside a volume defined by the frame, the heat spreader, and the at least one grounding pad.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cooling arrangement for an electronic component (11) or an electrical assembly having such a cooling arrangement. Said cooling arrangement has a passive heat sink (13) for cooling an electrical device (11). According to the invention, there is additionally provision for transducers (14), e.g. thermoelectric generators, to cause an additional cooling effect by dissipating heat from the electronic device (11) and at the same time to allow the generation of power. This can be used, by way of example, to drive an active cooling apparatus (23), such as a piezo fan (38), which additionally caters for cooling the heat sink (13) and hence improves the cooling effect. The overall system is self-sufficient in terms of energy, since the requisite power supply is obtained from the waste heat from the electronic device (11). Advantageously, the power obtained can also be made available to other functional elements. The added costs of the additional cooling are therefore compensated for by saving on an energy source.

The invention refers to a component carrier (1) comprising at least one heat pipe (20), wherein the at least one heat pipe (20) has at least a largely cylindrical heat pipe section (25) with a largely cylindrical profile (26) with an outer diameter (27). The at least one heat pipe (20) is embedded within a recess (50) of at least one inner layer (10, 12, 13, 14, 19) or is surface-mounted on an outer layer (10, 15) of said component carrier (1), wherein at least the largely cylindrical heat pipe section (25) of the heat pipe (20) is thermoconductively coupled by means of at least one adapter means (30, 130, 230, 330) that directly contacts the heat pipe (20) with at least one layer (10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19) of the component carrier (1). Furthermore the invention refers to several methods for producing said component carrier (1).
Abstract:
A lighting device (30) and a method of manufacturing such a lighting device are provided. The lighting device comprises a sheet assembly (7), which comprises a substrate (1) being at least partly light transmissive, a plurality of light sources (5) coupled to the substrate. At least a portion of the sheet assembly (7) is fixed in a rolled-up arrangement so as to form a roll (12), whereby the light sources (5) in the portion of the sheet assembly (7) are arranged to emit light at least partly inwards in the roll and/or at least partly towards at least one end (31) of the roll. The present invention is advantageous in that it provides enhanced lumen density output, which makes the lighting device useful for high brightness applications, such as head lights and fluid purification.
