    摘要: A present invention provides real-time temperature and power mapping of fully operating electronic devices. The method utilizes infrared (IR) temperature imaging, while an IR-transparent coolant flows through a specially designed cell directly over the electronic device. In order to determine the chip power distributions the individual temperature fields for each heat source of a given power and size on the chip (as realized by a scanning focused laser beam) are measured under the same cooling conditions. Then the measured chip temperature distribution is represented as a superposition of the temperature fields of these individual heat sources and the corresponding power distribution is calculated with a set of linear equations.

    摘要: Techniques for enhancing thermal design of a system having a number of boundary values are provided. A method for such enhancement includes representing thermal response of the system to the boundary values, obtaining at least one constraining parameter, and determining spatial and/or temporal distribution of the boundary values. The thermal response is represented as a superposition of temperature fields associated with given boundary values. The spatial and/or temporal distribution of the boundary values is determined based on the thermal response represented in the representing step, so as to satisfy the constraining parameter. The boundary values can be, for example, power sources, and the at least one constraining parameter can be, for example, a spatial or temporal location of one of the power sources.

    摘要: A system and method for measuring the thermal distributions of an electronic device during operation is described. In an embodiment of the present invention, the system includes a duct adapted to be coupled with an electronic device and a coolant flowing through the duct so as to cool the electronic device. The duct and the coolant are at least partially transparent to photons with wavelengths between about 0.1 micron to 20 microns. The system further includes a photon detector located adjacent to the duct for detecting photons. The photon detector captures thermal information from the electronic device during operation of the electronic device, wherein the electronic device is operating under conditions for which the electronic device is designed. The system further includes a processor coupled to the photon detector for generating a thermal distribution of the electronic device based on information received from the photon detector.
