摘要： Disclosed are thermally conductive plates. Each plate is configured such that a uniform adhesive-filled gap may be achieved between the plate and a heat generating structure when the plate is bonded to the heat generating structure and subjected to a temperature within a predetermined temperature range that causes the heat generating structure to warp. Additionally, this disclosure presents the associated methods of forming the plates and of bonding the plates to a heat generating structure. In one embodiment the plate is curved and modeled to match the curved surface of a heat generating structure within the predetermined temperature range. In another embodiment the plate is a multi-layer conductive structure that is configured to undergo the same warpage under a thermal load as the heat generating structure. Thus, when the plate is bonded with the heat generating structure it is able to achieve and maintain a uniform adhesive-filled gap at any temperature.

摘要： Low-pressure drop thermal assemblies, systems and methods of making low-pressure drop thermal assemblies for use in high power flux situations. A manifold body is attached to a distributor to form a subassembly. This subassembly is in communication with a substrate surface, which has a semiconductor device in need of thermal management thereon. An enclosed cavity is formed between the target substrate surface and the subassembly, and a seal of the cavity protects critical components residing on the active surface of the semiconductor device. The distributor includes a distributed liquid impingement microjet inlet array isolated from and parallel with a distributed microjet drain array for impinging cooling fluid and removing spent heated fluid in a direction orthogonal to a target surface for maximizing the heat transfer rate, and thereby providing high cooling flux capabilities while enabling low-pressure drops.

摘要： Disclosed is a cooling structure which has individual spreaders or caps mounted on the chips. The thickness of the high power spreader or cap exceeds the thickness of the lower power spreaders to ensure that the high power spreader achieves the highest plane and mates to a heat sink with the smallest interface gap. The variable and higher gaps between the lower power spreaders and the heat sink base are accommodated by compressible thermal pad or grease materials.

摘要： A chip package including a chip extension for containing thermal interface material (TIM) and improves chip cooling, and a related method, are disclosed. In particular, the chip package includes a chip, a cooling structure coupled to the chip via a TIM, and a chip extension may be thermally coupled to an outer edge of the chip. A TIM placed between the chip and the cooling structure is contained during thermal cycling by the chip extension such that void formation at the edge of the chip, which can move between the chip and cooling structure, is suppressed. The chip extension also improves lateral heat dissipation by providing a greater thermal contact area between the cooling structure and the chip and, if needed, the substrate at a much lower cost than using larger die with lower production unit output from a wafer.

摘要： A method and apparatus for electronic chip assembly maintains a thin gap spacing between the chip and the lid or heat sink and provides for the electronic chip to operate at a relatively cool temperature. The thermal performance is enhanced by a thermal interface material provided in the thin gap and maintained at a minimal thickness as a result of the structure and assembly process. A thin thermal interface material layer may be achieved with a compression step to compress the thermal interface material before the sealant is cured. In addition, a vent hole is provided in the assembly to prevent pressure build-up inside the module during sealant cure. As the sealant is cured, the gap spacing is maintained, further compression of the thermal interface material is not required, and seal defects are prevented.
