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.

Apparatus and methods are provided for thermally coupling a semiconductor chip directly to a heat conducting device (e.g., a copper heat sink) using a thermal joint that provides increased thermal conductivity between the heat conducting device and high power density regions of the semiconductor chip, while minimizing or eliminating mechanical stress due to the relative displacement due to the difference in thermal expansion between the semiconductor chip and the heat conducting device.

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.

A direct liquid jet impingement module and associated method of providing such used in cooling of electronic components housed in an electronic package is provided. The module comprises a frame having an orifice to be placed over to-be-cooled components. A manifold is then disposed over the frame, such that the manifold opening is aligned with the frame orifice to ultimately enable fluid impingement on the to-be-cooled components. The manifold is formed to receive an inlet for the flow of coolants and an outlet fitting for removal of dissipated heat. A jet orifice plate is also provided inside the manifold opening, aligned with the frame orifice for directing fluid coolant flow over to-be-cooled components.
摘要:
A semiconductor module structure and a method of forming the semiconductor module structure are disclosed. The structure incorporates a die mounted on a substrate and covered by a lid. A thermal compound is disposed within a thermal gap between the die and the lid. A barrier around the periphery of the die extends between the lid and the substrate, contains the thermal compound, and flexes in response to expansion and contraction of both the substrate and the lid during cycling of the semiconductor module. More particularly, either the barrier is formed of a flexible material or has a flexible connection to the substrate and/or to the lid. The barrier effectively contains the thermal compound between the die and the lid and, thereby, provides acceptable and controlled coverage of the thermal compound over the die for heat removal.
