In this paper a liquid cooling solution has been reported for 3-D package in PoP format. The high heat dissipating chip is mounted on a silicon carrier, which has copper through-silicon via for electrical interconnection and throughsilicon hollow via for fluidic circulation. Heat enhancement structures have been embedded in the chip carrier. Cooling liquid, de-ionized water is circulated through the chip carrier and heat from the chip is extracted. The fluidic channels are isolated from electrical traces using hermetic sealing. The research work has demonstrated 100 W of heat dissipation from one stack and total of 200 W from two stacks of the package. The fluidic interconnections and sealing techniques have been discussed.
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.
