Over the past decade, as silicon technology has continued to scale in accordance with Moore{\textquoteright}s Law, thermal design for cooling microprocessor packages has become increasingly challenging. Due to die shrinkage and other complexities of the microprocessor design, there is a possibility of increased local power densities, commonly referred to as {\textquoteright}hot spots{\textquoteright}. Thermal cooling solutions for package must ensure that the junction temperature of the processor does not exceed temperatures in 90{\textdegree} to 110{\textdegree}C range, typically at the hot spots, to ensure device performance and reliability. A majority of original equipment manufacturers within the microelectronics industry would like to further extend the application of air cooling technologies.
