  • Abstract
    This paper presents a thermal architecture concept for analysis of thermal problems and solutions existing in electronics systems. The thermal problems are categorized into a total of seven levels from chip to system. Advanced thermal technologies for addressing the thermal problems at all seven levels are discussed. Integrating the thermal architecture with the electronic architecture can significantly improve the effectiveness of the thermal management.
