Abstract

See full text

A microwave monolithic integrated circuit assembly includes a microwave monolithic integrated circuit having an MMIC circuit plane and having a first region of relatively high heat production and a second region of relatively low heat production. A heat-dissipating assembly is in thermal contact with the microwave monolithic integrated circuit. The heat-dissipating assembly has at least two pieces of pyrolytic graphite embedded within a casing. The pieces of pyrolytic graphite include a first piece of pyrolytic graphite underlying the first region and having a high-thermal-conductivity x-direction of the first piece lying within about 20 degrees of a perpendicular to the MMIC circuit plane, and a second piece of pyrolytic graphite underlying the second region and having a high-thermal-conductivity x-direction of the second piece lying within about 20 degrees of the MMIC circuit plane. The heat-dissipating assembly is preferably fabricated by hot isostatic pressing.
