    Abstract: A cooling system and method for using the cooling system are described. The cooling system includes an array of cooling elements and a controller. The array of cooling elements corresponds to regions of the heat-generating structure where heat is generated in response to operation of the semiconductor. The controller is configured to activate portions of the array of cooling elements based on a determination that operation of the heat-generating structure is likely to generate heat in a given region of the heat-generating structure.

    Abstract: A piezoelectric cooling system and method for driving the cooling system are described. The piezoelectric cooling system includes a first piezoelectric cooling element and a second piezoelectric cooling element. The first piezoelectric cooling element is configured to direct a fluid toward a surface of a heat-generating structure. The second piezoelectric cooling element is configured to direct the fluid to an outlet area after heat has been transferred to the fluid by the heat-generating structure.

    Abstract: A cooling system and method for using the cooling system are described. The cooling system includes a plurality of individual piezoelectric cooling elements spatially arranged in an array extending in at least two dimensions, a communications interface and driving circuitry. The communications interface is associated with the individual piezoelectric cooling elements such that selected individual piezoelectric cooling elements within the array can be activated based at least in part on heat energy generated in the vicinity of the selected individual piezoelectric cooling elements. The driving circuitry is associated with the individual piezoelectric cooling elements and is configured to drive the selected individual piezoelectric cooling elements.
