Abstract:
The invention relates to a cooling arrangement comprising a heat spreader (2) comprising a first surface (5), a second surface (8), at least one heat absorption chamber (9) and at least one heat dissipation chamber (10), the at least one heat absorption chamber (9) being in thermal contact with the first surface (5) and the at least one heat dissipation chamber (10) being in thermal contact with the second surface (8) and hydraulically coupled to the at least one heat absorption chamber (9). A cooling fluid (13) can be driven from the heat absorption chamber (9) to the heat dissipation chamber (10) using a plurality of flow patterns for cooling the first surface (5).
Abstract:
An electronic circuit device, including a combined optical transmission and cooling fluid conduit network. The network includes at least one cooling conduit having an optical transmission medium. The network is configured to convey a cooling fluid via the at least one cooling conduit and to convey an electromagnetic signal via the optical transmission medium. The network is in thermal communication with a first set of one or more components of the electronic circuit device and in signal communication with a second set of one or more components of the electronic circuit device. The first set and second set of components are at least partly overlapping. A method for conveying optical signal in such an electronic circuit device is also provided.
Abstract:
A computer program product or hardware description language (“HDL”) design structure in a computer-aided design system for generating a functional design model of an integrated circuitry structure including generating a functional representation of at least first and second regions of the integrated circuitry structure, generating a functional representation of an optical layer comprising optical waveguides, and generating a functional representation of a heat-conductive material for transferring heat from at least the second region through the optical layer to a heat sink.
