Thermal management in the packaging of electronic components is fast becoming an enabling technology in the development of reliable electronics for a range of applications. The objective of the paper is to assess the feasibility of using advance high thermal conductivity pitch fiber (HTCPF) as a solution to some of the packaging problems. The general scope will include the following: identification of the candidate material and its potential applications; thermal management of the chip to board interface; thermal management of the heat within the multi-layer interconnect board (MIB); thermal management of the standard electronic module-format E (SEME); and heat transfer thru the enclosure to a remote heatsink/heat exchanger.
