- It is an object of the present invention to provide a cooling system capable of simultaneously cooling the electronic parts on a multichip module that is arranged so as to provide a predetermined function, wherein the cooling system can be easily and quickly attached to and detached from the module when necessary.

- FIG. 11 is an exploded cross-sectional side view of the tenth embodiment.
- Referring to the accompanying drawings, a plurality of embodiments of the present invention will be explained below. In this connection, like reference characters are used to indicate like parts and portions in the embodiments, and the duplicate explanations are appropriately omitted here.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show the first embodiment of the cooling system of the multichip module, which will be referred to as an MCM hereinafter, of the present invention. The MCM shown in the drawings is composed of a small, for example, rectangular, substrate B on which a plurality of electronic parts P including heat generating parts such as LSIs are mounted. This MCM is a module designed to provide a predetermined function. This MCM is usually mounted on a large main substrate incorporated into an electronic device not shown in the drawing.
- Since an MCM includes a large number of heat generating parts, a radiating
body 1 is attached to MCM substrate B so that an upper surface of the MCM substrate B can be entirely covered with the radiatingbody 1. The radiatingbody 1 is integrally made of metal, the heat conductivity of which is high, for example, the radiatingbody 1 is integrally made of aluminum. - One surface of the radiating
body 1 opposed to the upper surface of the substrate of MCM, which will be referred to as an inner surface hereinafter, is formed stepwise so that a predetermined clearance (gap) can be formed between the inner surface and electronic parts P on the substrate having various heights. This clearance is formed into a substantially uniform size all over the surface, or alternatively this clearance is formed into various sizes depending upon the positions on the inner surface. - In the clearance formed between the upper surface of each electronic part P and the inner surface of the radiating
body 1, there is provided a flexible sheet S made of silicon rubber of a predetermined thickness, the heat conductivity of which is high, so that heat generated by each electronic part P can be effectively conducted to the inner surface of the radiatingbody 1. In this connection, it is possible to use a compound instead of the sheet, for example, it is possible to use a thermal grease (heat conducting grease) not shown in the drawing. - In order to maintain MCM substrate safely, the radiating
body 1 is detachably fixed to MCM substrate B with a fastening body. In the examples shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this fastening body is composed of four screws N (only two screws are shown in the drawings) which are set at four corners on the lower back side of MCM substrate B and screwed and fastened to the radiatingbody 1 while an MCM substrate is interposed between the four screws and the radiatingbody 1. In this connection, the number of the screws of the fastening body is not necessarily limited to four, but the number of the screws may be smaller or larger. - In the first embodiment, the arrangement of which is described above, heat generated by electronic parts P mounted on MCM substrate is effectively conducted to the radiating
body 1 and emitted outside from the radiatingbody 1. In other words, it is possible to simultaneously and effectively cool the electronic parts P mounted on MCM substrate B. - When the above screws N are loosened and fastened, the radiating
body 1 can be very simply attached to and detached from MCM substrate B. Accordingly, compared with a conventional radiating body (not shown in the drawings) which is made to adhere with adhesive, defective electronic parts on an MCM substrate can be very easily repaired or replaced even after the radiating body has been fastened. Therefore, this arrangement is very appropriate when it is put into practical use. - Even if the thermal expansion coefficient of electronic parts P to be cooled is different from that of the radiating
body 1, the flexible sheet (heat conducting member) S arranged in the clearance functions as a cushion member. Due to the effect of this cushion member, no stress is generated, so that the electronic parts can not be damaged. - In this connection, as shown in FIG. 3 in which the, second embodiment is shown, it is possible to provide studs St having a female screw hole at four corners of MCM substrate, and screw N is screwed into each stud St arranged on MCM substrate B, so that the radiating
body 31 can be fixed onto MCM substrate B by screws N. - As can be seen in FIG. 4, in which the third embodiment is shown, no screws are used, and it is possible to use an
elastic frame 43, which is an example of the fastening body, having hooks on both sides capable of catching MCM substrate B so that the radiatingbody 41 can be detachably fixed to the MCM substrate in such a manner that the radiatingbody 41 is covered with theelastic frame 43. Theelastic frame 43 is made of elastic material such as stainless steel. - As can be seen in FIG. 5, in which the fourth embodiment is shown, it is possible to use a plurality of C-shaped
clips 53 to fix the radiatingbody 51 and MCM substrate B to each other at primary portions on the outer circumference of MCM substrate B. Theclips 53 are made of elastic material such as stainless steel. - As can be seen in FIG. 6, in which the fifth embodiment is shown, MCM substrate B is composed of a flexible substrate. In this case, the substrate B can be deformed into a desired profile when it is attached to the radiating
body 61. Therefore, it is unnecessary to form the inner surface of the radiatingbody 61 into a step-like profile, that is, it is possible to form the inner surface of the radiatingbody 61 flat. - As can be seen in FIG. 7, in which the sixth embodiment is shown, the radiating
body 71 may be formed into a profile in which protrusions and recesses are provided in an upper portion of the radiatingbody 71, that is, a large number offins 71 a are formed in the upper portion of the radiatingbody 71 which is a heat sink. In this case, the radiating efficiency of the radiatingbody 71 can be greatly enhanced. - As can be seen in FIG. 8, in which the seventh embodiment is shown, it is possible to arrange a
centrifugal fan 85 on an upper surface of the radiatingbody 81. In this case, the radiating efficiency of the radiatingbody 81 can be considerably enhanced. - In several embodiments explained below, there is provided an axial fan on an upper portion of the radiating body, and air is sent from the axial fan into the radiating body.
- As can be seen in FIG. 9, in which the eighth embodiment is shown, there are formed a plurality of through-holes (
suction ports 91 a) in an upper portion of the radiatingbody 91 detachably fixed onto MCM substrate B in such a manner that the radiatingbody 91 covers MCM substrate B. Theaxial fan 95 is fixed onto the upper surface of the radiating body. On the four sides of the radiatingbody 91, a necessary number of through-holes (dischargeports 91 b) are formed. - Due to the above arrangement, air sent from the
axial fan 95 passes through thesuction ports 91 a of the radiatingbody 91 and enters a space formed between the inner surface of the radiating body and the upper surface of MCM substrate. After that, air is discharged from thedischarge port 91 a of the radiatingbody 91. Since air effectively removes heat from the heat generating parts P on MCM substrate B at this time, it becomes possible to effectively suppress an increase in temperature of MCM substrate B. Since the air flow removes heat from MCM substrate B, it is preferable to adopt the above arrangement from the viewpoint of cooling the entire MCM substrate B. - It is preferable that the
suction ports 91 a of the radiatingbody 91 are intensively arranged in a portion of the radiating body so that air which has entered the inner space of the radiatingbody 91 can be effectively blown out toward heat generating parts P. - As can be seen in FIG. 10, in which the ninth embodiment is shown, as described in the first embodiment, a sheet S made of silicon rubber may be interposed in the clearance formed between the upper surface of a certain heat generating part P (on the right in the drawing) and the inner surface of the radiating body. In this case, the number of the discharge ports arranged on the side of the radiating
body 101 may be reduced, so that a flow of air having a directivity can be formed. - As can be seen in FIG. 11 in which the tenth embodiment is shown, a nozzle Nz from which a flow of air is strongly jetted out to high heat generating parts P on MCM substrate B may be attached to at least one
suction port 111 a of the radiating body, wherein four suction ports are shown in the drawing. - As explained above, according to the present invention, the heat generating parts on an MCM substrate, which is formed into a module on which a plurality of heat generating electronic parts are mounted, can be effectively cooled. Therefore, it is possible to realize a cooling system in which the heat generating parts can be effectively cooled and the cooling system can be very simply attached to and detached from an MCM substrate.
- It is to be understood that the invention is by no means limited to the specific embodiments illustrated and described herein, and that various modifications thereof may be made which come within the scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
