The integrated circuit device includes a cooling substrate attached to the second surface of the die. At least one fluid routing channel is defined in the cooling substrate. The at least one fluid routing channel is connected to the at least one micro-channel defined in the die. Additionally, the cooling substrate has at least one valve positioned within the at least one fluid routing channel. The at least one valve is configured to autonomously regulate a flow rate of a cooling fluid flowing through the at least one fluid routing channel.
