Abstract
In one aspect, a system includes a first circuit board that includes integrated circuits, a first thermal spreader coupled to the integrated circuits of the first circuit board, a first compliant board coupled to the first circuit board, a second circuit board that includes integrated circuits and a second thermal spreader coupled to the integrated circuits of the second circuit board. The first circuit board and the first thermal spreader have a first thickness. The second daughter board and the second thermal spreader have a second thickness. The system further includes a second compliant board coupled to the second circuit board, a board assembly coupled to first and second compliant boards and a cold-plate assembly in contact with the first and second thermal spreaders. Either of the first or the second compliant boards is configured to expand or contract to account for the differences between the first and second thicknesses.
