Abstract

A multi-surface compliant heat removal process that includes identifying components to share a heat rejecting device; applying non-adhesive film to the components; identifying a primary component of the components; and applying phase change material on each of the components, other than the primary component. The phase change material is placed on top of the non-adhesive film. The process also includes placing the heat rejecting device on the corresponding components and removing the heat rejecting device from the corresponding components. The phase change material and the non-adhesive film remain with the heat rejecting device. The process also includes reflowing the phase change material on the heat rejecting device; removing the non-adhesive film from the heat rejecting device; placing a heatsink-attach thermal interface material on the components; and placing the heat rejecting device on the corresponding components.
