A vapor chamber composed of a lower shell, an upper shell and a working fluid is revealed. The upper and lower shells made of metal composite plates are connected closely to form a vacuum sealed cavity which the working fluid is filled in. The metal composite plate includes a metal matrix and a copper layer bonded to a surface of at least one side of the metal matrix. The metal matrix includes stainless steel and an aluminum silicon carbide (Al/SiC) metal matrix composite. The copper layer of the metal composite plate is treated by stamping process to form a support member inside the cavity. Thus complicated, polluting and high cost etching process is no more required. Therefore the production efficiency is improved and the cost is reduced. The metal matrix of the metal composite plate provides sufficient structural strength.

The vapor chamber comprises a thermo-conductive and electro-conductive material. The top of the vapor chamber has one or more depressions formed therein, each depression receiving and thermo-conductively connected to at least part of a bottom of a corresponding packaged semiconductor device, which is mounted through a corresponding aperture in the PCB. A heat sink may be thermo-conductively attached to the bottom of the vapor chamber.

A method and computer program product are provided for controlling the airflow direction through a device enclosure. A first device enclosure is positioned adjacent a second device enclosure, wherein both enclosures have an airflow pathway extending from the front to the back, and a fan for moving air through the airflow pathway, wherein the fan of the first device enclosure is a reversible rotary fan. The method automatically determines whether the first device enclosure is in a first orientation with its front facing in the same direction as the front of the adjacent second device enclosure or in a second orientation with the front facing in the same direction as the back of the adjacent second device enclosure. The airflow direction imparted by a reversible rotary fan is then controlled according to the determined orientation of the first device enclosure relative to the second device enclosure.
