ABSTRACT:
A heat sink for utilization in thermal management of high density integrated circuit substrates is disclosed. Each heat sink includes at least one compliant bag containing a mass of thermally conductive fluid. Within each compliant bag is an aperture which contains a thin pliable metallic membrane having a high Z axis thermal conductivity. The metallic membrane is adapted to slidably mate with a surface of an integrated circuit device to permit relative motion during thermal mismatch while enhancing thermal conductivity from the integrated circuit device into the thermally conductive fluid. A second metallic membrane is preferably mounted to the upper surface of the compliant bag and is thermally coupled to a plurality of cooling fins. In one embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of such compliant bags are serially interconnected and a pump is utilized to circulate fluid through each compliant bag. In this embodiment, a pair of rigidly mounted needle valves may be utilized to automatically couple the fluid pump to the plurality of compliant bags in response to the electrical connection of a substrate incorporating such a heat sink.
