  • CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR AN ENCLOSURE
    Publication number: 20100185332
    Abstract: A system and method for climate control of an enclosure that includes two climate control systems configured to operate in conjunction to cool the enclosure. One climate control system may be configured to control the operation of the other climate control system. The climate control systems operate depending on the temperature of certain areas.

  • Apparatus and method having mechanical isolation arrangement for controlling the temperature of an electronic device under test
    Patent number: 7100389
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of an electronic device under test utilizes a thermal head spaced apart from a movable support structure by a mechanical isolation assembly. The support structure has a manifold configured to route refrigerant fluid between the evaporator head and components of a refrigeration system. The mechanical isolation assembly is configured to compensate for variations in the planar orientation of the device under test. Moreover, the mechanical isolation assembly preferably includes bellows through which the refrigerant fluid is conducted.

  • Apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of an integrated circuit device
    Patent number: 6526768
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of an integrated circuit device includes a refrigerant system having a coolant loop containing refrigerant, an evaporator, a compressor, and a condenser. The condenser has a variable speed fan controlled to maintain the temperature of the refrigerant at a predetermined value. In a refrigeration system used to cool an integrated circuit device, a method for controlling refrigerant pressure by comparing the refrigerant temperature at a predetermined location to a predetermined value and varying the cooling applied to the condenser.
