Bernie Siegal Thermal Engineering Associates, Inc. Introduction One of the key power generation technologies in the current “green” revolution is the solar photovoltaic cell (SPVC). This unit directly converts solar energy into useful amounts of…read more
An alternative approach to junction-to-case thermal resistance measurements
May 1st, 2001
As more and more integrated circuits dissipate power at levels once reserved for power discrete devices, junction-to-case thermal resistance (JC or RJC) remains as important as ever. The difficulties in making JC measurements often leads…read more
Elements of device thermal characterization
June 1st, 1995
The increased power dissipation of today’s integrated circuits has made knowledge of thermal resistance important to those who manufacture and use these devices. Thermal resistance is a device (i.e. semiconductor chip mounted in a package)…read more
