Abstract:
A self-acclimating electronics package includes an electronic chip, an electrically resistive material with a negative temperature coefficient of resistivity, the electrically resistive material being thermally coupled to the electronic chip, and a thermoelectric cooler thermally coupled to the electronic chip. The thermoelectric cooler is electrically connected in series with the electrically resistive material and a power supply to cool the electronic chip, where if a temperature of the electronic chip increases, a resistance of the electrically resistive material decreases to cause the a voltage supplied to the thermoelectric cooler to increase, and if a temperature of the electronic chip decreases, a resistance of the electrically resistive material increases to cause the a voltage/current applied to the thermoelectric cooler to decrease. This resilient self-acclimating cooling system eliminates any control hardware, firmware, and/or software which may be costly, complicated, and may require additional packaging space and/or tuning.
