A critical property in understanding and accurately predicting the thermal resistance of polymer-like thermal interface joints in micro-electronic cooling applications is the bulk thermal conductivity of thermal interface materials (TIMs). A unique experimental test stand was developed and validated which accurately measures the in-situ thickness of a TIM sample in a vacuum during thermal resistance testing. The system has a resolution capability of /spl plusmn/ 1.0 /spl mu/m and is designed in such a manner as to continuously measure the true relative deflection of a TIM sample taking into account any mechanical and/or thermal deflections of the entire test stand. The data and analysis demonstrate that applying the current American standard test method (ASTM) ASTM D 5470 without accounting for in-situ thickness deviations can result in over estimating the bulk thermal conductivities for these types of materials by as much as 40%. These types of errors in fundamental material properties can cause the over-prediction of thermal heat flux in a system and an under-prediction of the temperatures of the system.
了解和准确预测微电子冷却应用中类聚合物热界面接头热阻的关键性质是热界面材料(TIMs)的体导热系数。开发并验证了一种独特的实验测试台,该测试台在热阻测试过程中可以准确地测量真空中TIM样品的原位厚度。该系统的分辨率为/spl plusmn/ 1.0 /spl mu/m,其设计方式是考虑到整个试验台的任何机械和/或热挠度,连续测量TIM样品的真实相对挠度。数据和分析表明,在不考虑原位厚度偏差的情况下,应用当前的美国标准测试方法(ASTM) ASTM D 5470可能导致对这些类型材料的体热导率的高估高达40%。这些类型的基本材料性质的误差会导致系统中热通量的过度预测和系统温度的不足预测。

The effects of temperature and stress on the Raman shift in single crystal silicon and polycrystalline silicon films were calibrated. Polysilicon films were grown by LPCVD using a range of temperatures to produce amorphous and crystalline materials followed by doping and annealing. The dependencies of the linear coefficients were related to the polysilicon microstructure using AFM surface scans to determine any possible links. Finally, the technique was utilized in measuring the temperature distribution in a thermal MEMS cantilever device with micron spatial resolution.

The paper describes a practical implementation of a single-phase Si microchannel cooler designed for cooling very high power chips such as microprocessors. Through the use of multiple heat exchanger zones and optimized cooler fin designs, a unit thermal resistance of 10.5 C-mm/sup 2//W from the cooler surface to the inlet water was demonstrated with a fluid pressure drop of less than 35 kPa. Further, cooling of a thermal test chip with a microchannel cooler bonded to it packaged in a single chip module was also demonstrated for a chip power density greater than 300 W/cm/sup 2/. Coolers of this design should be able to cool chips with average power densities of 400 W/cm/sup 2/ or more.

The high heat transfer coefficients in microchannels are attractive for direct cooling of computer chips requiring high heat-flux removal. However, this is associated with a severe pressure drop penalty. Channel size optimization therefore becomes necessary in selecting an appropriate channel geometry configuration. As the heat flux increases beyond about 2 MW/m/sup 2/, the heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of the plain channels dictate the use of turbulent flow through the channels, which suffers from an excessive pressure drop penalty. It therefore becomes essential to incorporate enhancement features in the microchannels and multiple passes with shorter flow lengths to provide the desired solution. Results obtained from a theoretical analysis are presented as parametric plots for the heat transfer and pressure drop performance of a 10 mm/spl times/10 mm silicon chip incorporating plain microchannels. Enhanced microchannels with offset strip fins in single-pass and split-flow arrangements are also investigated. The results show that the enhanced structures are capable of dissipating heat fluxes extending beyond 3 MW/m/sup 2/ using water as the coolant in a split-flow arrangement with a core pressure drop of around 35 kPa.

High-power semiconductor packages typically exhibit a 3D heat flow, resulting in large lateral changes in chip and case surface temperature. For single-chip devices we propose to use an unambiguous definition for the junction-to-case thermal resistance as a key parameter, based on a transient measurement technique with much higher repeatability, also for very low thermal resistances compared to a two-point thermal resistance measurement. The technique is illustrated on thermal transient measurements of power MOSFETs. A comparison between different thermal coupling to the ambient is used to demonstrate the method's capability to reveal even subtle internal details of the package. The concept is extended to multichip and stacked-chip structures, where transfer impedances have to be introduced. Here, the dynamic properties of the package are important and complex impedance mapping is the proper way to characterize the package.

We report a simple method to improve bondline formation kinetics by means of a hierarchical set of channels patterned into one of the surfaces. These channel arrays are used to improve the gap squeezing and cooling of single and multiple flip chip electronic modules with highly viscous fluids and thermal pastes. They allow a fast formation of thin gaps or bond lines by reducing the pressure gradient in the thermal interface material as it moves in and out of the gap. Models describing the dynamics of Newtonian fluids in these "hierarchically nested channel" (HNC) interfaces combine squeeze flow and Hagen-Poiseuille theories. Rapid bond line formation is demonstrated for Newtonian fluids and selected particle-filled pastes. Modeling of particle-laden polymeric pastes includes Bingham and Hershel-Bulkley fluid properties. Bond line formation and thermal resistance is improved particularly for high viscosity-high thermal conductivity interface materials created from higher volumetric particle loadings or for thermal interface materials with smaller filler particle diameters.

Compact thermal models have been extremely valuable in the quick and simple analysis of electronic packages because of their simplicity in implementation and minimal computational resource requirement. The recent trends in the market resulted in an increasingly high level of complexity in electronic package design and thus the need for a simplistic approach to routine analysis. The key challenge has always been the derivation of highly accurate compact models. This paper presents detailed analysis of the two-resistance compact models for prediction of the thermal performance of stacked-die chip-scale packages. The compact models are compared to the detailed model under different boundary condition scenarios: still air environment (JESD51-2), ring cold plate test (JESD51-8), the top cold plate test, and a cell phone mock-up environment. Results of the analyses show good correlation between the two-resistance models and the detailed multi-die stacked packages considered. A representative four-resistance model for a two-package stack technology has been demonstrated to provide accurate results in different environments.

We present a single-phase liquid cooling technology that exploits the highly conducting nature and superior thermophysical properties of liquid metals to cool high density power sources (>200 Wcm/sup -2/) with very high heat transfer coefficients (/spl sim/20 Wcm/sup -2/K/sup -1/), and pump the liquid metals using power-efficient, non-moving, gravity/orientation independent magnetofluiddynamic (MFD) pumps. We have implemented and characterized this cooling scheme using miniature (<5 cm/sup 3/) pumps operating at 25 kPa maximum pressure head and 10% efficiencies in a variety of computing applications including mobile notebooks, desktops, and servers.

Experimental measurements were made of the overall pressure loss coefficients of individual EMI shield samples and various printed circuit boards in a 1RU channel. The loss coefficients of the boards were highly dependent on electronic component population density. The loss coefficients of the grill samples compared surprisingly well with literature data for perforated plates, despite being taken at much lower Reynolds number than the literature data. Assemblies of printed circuit boards with upstream and downstream grills were predicted well by a 1D flow network model, but it appears that the upstream grill may influence the losses across the downstream board. The individually measured loss coefficients were used in a flow network model of an entire 9RU enclosure, with and without a fan tray present. The 1D predictions were generally adequate, except in the case with a deadlocked fan tray placed in front of the exit grill. This may be because the fan tray has a significant influence on the loss coefficient of the exit grill. The data generally showed that turbulence and flow non-uniformity generated by upstream components may influence the loss coefficients of downstream components. These interactions are generally not captured by standard 1D modeling approaches.
