Abstract

The apparatus comprises integrated circuit chips (10) which are to be cooled.
Heat is conducted from the chips (10) to a cold plate (36) by a heat transfer path including spring biased heat conducting members (26) and housing (16).
A thermal adapter (42) is sandwiched between the housing (16) and the cold plate (36) and introduces predetermined heat transfer characteristics between the housing and the plate.
The adapter can be a good or poor conductor. The adapter can comprise cut-out regions aligned with low powered chips to increase the thermal resistance to heat flow from those chips while the remaining regions, aligned with high powered chips, have a lower thermal resistance. This permits both the low and high powered chips to attain their optimum operating temperature.
