Publication number: 20250142778Abstract: Disclosed embodiments are relate to heat transfer devices or heat exchangers for computing systems, and in particular, to heat pipes for improved thermal performance at a cold plate interface. A thermal exchange assembly includes a heat pipe (HP) directly coupled to a cold plate. The HP includes a window, which is a recessed or depressed portion of the HP. The window is attached to the cold plate at a window section of the cold plate. The cold plate is configured to be placed on a semiconductor device that generates heat during operation. The cold plate transfers the heat to the HP with less thermal resistance than existing HP solutions. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 26, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Inventors: Juha Paavola, Columbia Mishra, Justin Huttula, Mark Carbone

Patent number: 11611346Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for regulating a temperature of a resonator structure. In an embodiment, a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) is thermally coupled to a resonator which is proximate thereto. The resonator supports operation with an oscillator circuit, wherein a resonance characteristic of the resonator contributes to oscillations of a master clock signal, or other oscillatory signal, which is provided with the oscillator circuit. The TEC provides Peltier functionality to selectively perform either one of heating or cooling the resonator. In another embodiment, the TEC is configured to conduct heat which is transferred via a path between the TEC and the resonator, wherein the path omits any circuitry which is to perform operations which are synchronized based on the oscillatory signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2019Date of Patent: March 21, 2023Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Catharina Biber, Jason Mix, Mark Carbone, Mohamed A.
