Apparatus, system, and method for cooling multi-chip modules via clustered fluid-cooled plates

Abstract:

The disclosed apparatus may include (1) a plurality of fluid-cooled plates that thermally couple to a plurality of electronic components included on a multi-chip module, (2) at least one source conduit that (A) is operatively coupled to at least one fluid-cooled plate within the plurality of fluid-cooled plates and (B) feeds cooling fluid from a condenser to the fluid-cooled plate, (3) at least one return conduit that (A) is operatively coupled to at least one additional fluid-cooled plate within the plurality of fluid-cooled plates and (B) returns the cooling fluid from the additional fluid-cooled plate toward the condenser, and (4) an assembly that (A) is mechanically coupled to the fluid-cooled plates and (B) reinforces the thermal couplings between the fluid-cooled plates and the electronic components included on the multi-chip module. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
