Thermal management of circuit boards

Abstract:

A semiconductor component system includes a motherboard and a cooling system mounted to the motherboard. The cooling system includes sidewalls projecting from the motherboard. A sub-motherboard extends between the sidewalls and is spaced apart from the motherboard. The sidewalls and the sub-motherboard define a cooling channel over the motherboard. A connector is attached to the sub-motherboard and is configured to receive a semiconductor device daughterboard. The connector has contacts to electrically couple the semiconductor device daughterboard to the sub-motherboard.
