Thermal Management of Electronic Systems

This volume presents an overview of recent developments in the thermal management of electronic systems. This is increasingly recognized as an important factor in current design methodology. The topics covered include thermal management in general, thermally induced failure, numerical and experimental analysis of systems at various packaging levels, channels and electronic components, measurement techniques, liquid cooling, thermal characterization, thermal stress and die attach defects. This text is suitable for research and development engineers and scientists whose work involves the design and manufacture of electronic systems.
