Latest Patents
One of Yakubowski's latest patents is an apparatus and process for dispensing thermal paste into a thermal interface. This invention describes a method for dispensing thermally conductive paste into the blind holes of a cold plate. The process involves the insertion of pistons into those blind holes, which engage with and are coated by the thermal paste. The thermal paste is extruded from a carrier plate into the blind holes by the pistons, forming the finished assembly of the cold plate under vacuum conditions. This method effectively eliminates entrapped air or gases, which could otherwise impede heat transfer. Another significant patent focuses on module packaging in thermal conduction cooling systems. This invention employs an improved seal using an acrylic film that acts as both a hermetic seal and an adhesive, providing a suitable sealing force between the cold plate and substrate to prevent corrosion of mounted electronic devices.
