THERMAL EXPANSION MATCHED CHIP MODULE WITH INTEGRATED LIQUID COOLING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240203822 titled 'THERMAL EXPANSION MATCHED CHIP MODULE WITH INTEGRATED LIQUID COOLING
The abstract describes a chip and cooler assembly that includes an interposer with integrated circuit chips mounted on the back side, a frame fitted into the gaps between the chips, and a cooler module attached to the back side surface.
- The assembly features an interposer with chips mounted on the back side, each with a front side attached to the interposer.
- Gaps separate the chips, and a frame is fitted into these gaps, CTE-matched to the chips.
- The frame and chips define a back side surface where a cooler module is attached, CTE-matched to the chips.
- The cooler module includes a microchannel cooler directly against the chips and a manifold attached to the microchannel cooler, CTE-matched to it.
Potential Applications: - High-performance computing systems - Data centers - Telecommunications equipment
Problems Solved: - Efficient cooling of integrated circuit chips - Thermal management in densely packed chip assemblies
Benefits: - Improved heat dissipation - Enhanced performance and reliability of electronic devices
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Cooling Solutions for High-Performance Electronics This technology can be used in servers, supercomputers, and other high-performance electronic devices to ensure optimal thermal management, leading to increased efficiency and longevity.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the cooler module improve the performance of the integrated circuit chips? 2. What are the key advantages of using a frame in the chip and cooler assembly?
Original Abstract Submitted
a chip and cooler assembly includes an active or passive interposer that has a front side and a back side. integrated circuit chips are mounted onto the back side of the interposer. each of the chips has a front side that is attached to the interposer and a back side that faces away from the interposer. gaps separate the chips. the assembly also includes a frame that is fitted into the gaps between the chips. the frame is cte-matched to the chips. the frame and the chips define a back side surface. a cooler module is attached to the back side surface. the cooler module is cte-matched to the chips. the cooler module includes a microchannel cooler that is disposed directly against the back sides of the chips and a manifold that is attached to the microchannel cooler opposite the chips. the manifold is cte-matched to the microchannel cooler.
