Abstract
An Integrated Circuit (IC) assembly, comprising an IC package coupled to a substrate, and a subassembly comprising a thermal interface layer. The thermal interface layer comprises a phase change material (PCM) over the IC package. At least one thermoelectric cooling (TEC) apparatus is thermally coupled to the thermal interface layer.
