Benefits of technology

[0005]One embodiment is an apparatus comprising a heat sink and a plenum. The heat sink includes a base and a plurality of heat exchange elements, connected to and raised above, a surface of the base. The plenum is located above the heat exchang

Problems solved by technology

There is a growing trend, however, for electronic devices to dissipate so much power that traditional heat sink designs are inadequate to sufficiently cool the device.

Abstract

An apparatus comprising a heat sink and a plenum. The heat sink includes a base and a plurality of heat exchange elements, connected to and raised above, a surface of the base. The plenum is located above the heat exchange elements. The plenum includes a housing configured to hold a positive air-pressure therein, and openings in a surface of the housing. The opening are positioned such that air exiting the plenum through the openings is directed to the heat sink.
