ABSTRACT:
A single series electrical circuit for cooling an electronic device while simultaneously providing series electrical current through the device to provide operational power. In this manner, increases or decreases in operating current through the device causes proportional increases or decreases in Peltier cooling current through one or more Peltier cooling junctions within the circuit to produce a desired increased or decreased cooling of the device with increases and decreases of heat dissipation from the device. The series electrical circuit and method of operation includes the provision of first and second power supply terminals and an electronic device connected to one of the power supply terminals. A Peltier cooling junction is connected to one side of the electronic device where a Peltier heating junction is connected to one side of the Peltier cooling junction. Then, a heat sink is connected between one side of the Peltier heating junction and the other power supply terminal for conducting heat away from the electronic device being cooled.
