ABSTRACT:
An integrated thermal apparatus for improved electronic device performance has an energy storage device coupled with a thermoelectric management device for managing thermal energy generated by the electronic device. The thermoelectric management device can include a semiconductor thermoelectric device and phase change material, which can be integrated into a foam aluminum structure. The energy storage device can be a nanometallic device. The electrical load electrical efficiency is improved by co-locating it with thermoelectric management device directly on a composite substrate foundation to provide enhanced waste heat conversion to electrical energy. The apparatus manages the thermal and power issues at the substrate level in close proximity to the electrical load and incorporates the needed thermal mass into the support structure by way of a phase change material.
