This paper describes the thermal characterization and power map methodology on chipset silicon die. The on-die power map affects the overall thermal gradient and heat spreading effect from the die to the package top, which in turns drives the cooling requirements needed to meet package cooling target. This paper demonstrates the power-thermal simulation with different power map resolution and examines its effects on the hot spot on the die.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
