摘要:
An embodiment is directed to an IC mounting assembly that comprises an IC device having a first planar surface, wherein multiple electrically conductive first terminals are located at the first surface. The assembly further comprises an IC device mounting platform having a second planar surface in closely spaced relationship with the first surface, wherein multiple electrically conductive second terminals are located at the second surface, each second terminal corresponding to one of the first terminals. A solder element extends between each first terminal and its corresponding second terminal, and a constraining element is fixably joined to the second surface, wherein the constraining element has a CTE which is selectively less than the CTE of the mounting platform at the second surface. The constraining element is provided with a number of holes or apertures, and each hole is traversed by a solder element that extends between a first terminal and its corresponding second terminal.

A heat spreader includes a plurality of sensors that indicate that the heat spreader is flat against and in thermal contact with a plurality of chips when the heat spreader is loaded upon a chip stack. One or more nodes within the sensors are connected by electric conductors. The resistances of the conductors may be compared to determine if the nodes within the sensors are relatively flat. Sensor flatness may be indicated to a higher level electronic device such as a visual display. The display may ultimately be viewed by a user to determine whether the heat spreader is flat and in thermal contact with the plurality of chips when the heat spreader is loaded upon the chip stack.

A technique for installing a heatsink in an electronic assembly includes simultaneously applying force to multiple fastener assemblies that each retain a respective fastener in a body of the heatsink. The heatsink is then attached to the electronic assembly by actuating the fasteners while the force is simultaneously applied to the multiple fastener assemblies.

Forming a stacked multiple electronic component interconnect structure includes mounting a first double sided land grid to a first surface of a flexible cable and attaching a second double sided land grid array to a second surface of the flexible cable. A first electronic component is attached to a first surface of the first double sided land grid array and a second electronic component is secured to a second surface of the second double sided land grid array to form a stacked multiple electronic component interconnect structure. The stacked multiple electronic component interconnect structure is attached to a circuit board having an electronic component interface cavity. The second electronic component is mounted in the electronic component interface cavity. Finally, the method includes attaching a force member to apply a compressive force to the stacked multiple electronic component interconnect structure to maintain electrical contact between the first and second electronic components.

摘要:
An apparatus measures residual stress in a sample under test by measuring the penetration of an indenter on a unprocessed sample under test, and after processing of the sample under test, measuring again the penetration of the indenter on the processed sample under test, and deriving from the two penetration measurements the residual stress in a sample under test. The apparatus and method of the preferred embodiments are especially useful in determining residual stress in a printed wiring board. In this manner a direct measurement of residual stress is possible without destroying the printed wiring board.

A method and system for cooling an electrical heat source is disclosed. A heat exchanger has two principal sub-assemblies. A closed-loop fluid flow is provided through a second sub-assembly, disposed next to a heat source. An open-loop fluid flow is provided though a first sub-assembly in communication with a second sub-assembly. Each of the first and second sub-assemblies has a rotational element. The fluid flow entering the first sub-assembly rotates the first rotational element, and magnetic communication between the rotational elements causes movement of the second rotational element, thereby achieving fluid movement within the second sub-assembly. Operationally, the closed-loop sub-assembly removes heat from the heat source and transfers it to the open-loop sub-assembly for subsequent heat transfer in a downstream fluid flow.
