Patent number: 12690168Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a memory sub-system with isothermal cooling of components. A PCB assembly may be secured between a heat spreader and a heat sink that are thermally coupled. The heat sink radiates heat absorbed from both sides of the PCB assembly. By connecting the heat spreader to the heat sink, heat is more effectively transferred from the side of the PCB assembly not directly connected to the heat sink. The PCB assembly may be secured between a top enclosure and a bottom enclosure. The top enclosure and the bottom enclosure may be thermally coupled using a vapor chamber. The vapor chamber pumps heat from a higher-temperature side of the PCB assembly to a lower-temperature side of the PCB assembly. By using the vapor chamber to thermally couple the top and bottom enclosures, creation of hot spots is avoided.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2024Date of Patent: July 21, 2026Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Suresh Reddy Yarragunta, Deepu Narasimiah Subhash, Ravi Kumar Kollipara
