LIQUID COOLED INTERPOSER FOR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT STACK
An integrated circuit (IC) package may be fabricated having an interposer, one or more microfluidic channels through the interposer, a first IC chip attached to a first side of the interposer, and a second IC chip attached to a second side of the interposer, where the first side of the interposer includes first bond pads coupled to first bond pads of the first IC chip, and the second side of the interposer includes second bond pads coupled to first bond pads of the second IC chip. In an embodiment of the present description, a liquid cooled three-dimensional IC (3DIC) package may be formed with the IC package, where at least two IC devices may be stacked with a liquid cooled interposer. In a further embodiment, the liquid cooled 3DIC package may be electrically attached to an electronic board. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
SECTIONAL ARCHITECTURE FOR FLUID MANAGEMENT AND LEAKAGE SENSORS
A liquid manifold can be assembled to an information technology (IT) rack to deliver and distribute fluid to IT equipment.
