This used to be very unrealistic for a host of reasons, all ultimately terminating at the power dissipation of the various components heating them to different degrees. However, with todays low-power ADCs, things are starting to look far more interesting, and given the size of the parts, submerging the entire thing in a suitable liquid is also no longer out of the question. But it's still a major challenge...
