Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a thermal gap pad for transferring heat from a heat-supplying component such as an electronic device, and more specifically to a thermal gap pad with reduced compressive loading. In one embodiment, a thermal assembly includes a heat-supplying component, a cooling structure, a gap pad having a first surface, and a lubricant provided along the first surface of the gap pad. The lubricant has a viscosity of about 500 cP or less. The gap pad is compressed between the heat-supplying component and the cooling structure, such that the first surface of the gap pad is in thermal contact with the cooling structure.
