Thermal design in electronics cooling is to achieve effective heat removal to increase reliability and life of the components and systems. This book focuses on cooling of a Flip Chip (FC) package without the use of phase change materials(PCM). A numerical thermal model was developed and validated. CFD Simulation is performed for PCM and non-PCM based material studies. Relevant thermal performance data were obtained to show the effects of thermal interface material, lid, heat sink and process variables. Excellent agreement found between the numerical and the measured data. A novel PCM-based...

Over the past three decades, societal demands have resulted in extremely compact yet powerful electronic devices. Due to increased packaging density, improved performance of electronic devices has caused continuing increase in power dissipation of systems. Hence, effective thermal management or cooling of the electronic devices is a key to ensure their reliable and efficient performance. Considering the limitation of air-cooling method, other cooling techniques have to be carried out to meet the requirement. Several new approaches for electronic cooling were proposed and...
