Abstract
A heat sink assembly includes a base plate coupled to a first side of an electronic device. A plurality of fins extend from the base plate and are positioned within a housing. The housing includes a first manifold defining a plurality of first passages and a second manifold defining a plurality of second passages in fluid communication with the plurality of first passages. At least one of the plurality of first passages extends between an adjacent pair of the plurality of second passages and is oriented to channel fluid toward at least one of the plurality of fins.
