Abstract

An electronic device with cooling of a heat dissipation source, by a liquid metals spreader, the device including at least one heat dissipation source, at least one spreader through which at least one liquid metal circulation channel passes forming a loop routed below a heat dissipation source, at least one heat sink, and at least one electromagnetic pump moving the liquid metal in the at least one channel such that the liquid metal absorbs heat dissipated by a heat dissipation source and transports the absorbed heat to be evacuated by the heat sink. Each spreader includes at least two plates made of an electrical insulating material located on each side of at least one bar made of deformable material.
