Abstract

A device, method, and system for a fluid cooled micro-scaled heat exchanger is disclosed. The fluid cooled micro-scaled heat exchanger utilizes a micro-scaled region and a spreader region with a highly thermally conductive material and sized to yield high heat dissipation and transfer area per unit volume from a heat source. The micro-scaled region preferably comprises microchannels.
