Integrated circuit coolant microchannel assembly with manifold member that facilitates coolant line attachment

摘要

An apparatus includes a microchannel structure having microchannels formed therein. The microchannels are to transport a coolant and to be proximate to an integrated circuit to transfer heat from the integrated circuit to the coolant. The apparatus also includes a plurality of walls coupled to the microchannel structure to define a manifold. The manifold is in communication with at least a plurality of the microchannels. The plurality of walls includes a side wall. The side wall has a port therein. The port allows the coolant to flow in a direction that is either into the manifold or out of the manifold.
