ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and methods are provided for microchannel cooling of electronic devices such as IC chips, which enable efficient and low operating pressure microchannel cooling of high power density electronic devices having a non-uniform power density distribution, which are mounted face down on a package substrate. For example, integrated microchannel cooler devices (or microchannel heat sink devices) for cooling IC chips are designed to provide uniform flow and distribution of coolant fluid and minimize pressure drops along coolant flow paths, as well as provide variable localized cooling capabilities for high power density regions (or “hot spots”) of IC chips with higher than average power densities.
