Abstract

A cooling system including a cooling module which has a heat transfer plate that is exposed to a flow of coolant and is elastically biased toward a circuit component on a printed circuit board for transferring heat dissipated by the component to the coolant, and means for guiding and preventing improper alignment of the transfer plate as the same is resiliently biased toward the circuit component. The coolant module may include a solder or low-melting-point metal for establishing thermal contact between the transfer plate and the circuit component.
