by MP Divakar, PhD, Stack Design Automation Technical Editor, Electronics Cooling Online Electronics cooling engineers and designers are used to one constant in their professional lives: change. Most of it (as far as problem solving is concerned) is change for the worse… and is challenging! The heat flux keeps increasing, the geometries keep shrinking, the available solution … [Read more...]
How to Choose the Right Solution for Effective Heat Management
(June 3, 2016) Because electronics have shrunk significantly in recent years, the solutions to cool them must be adjusted. Electropages.com suggests “a case-specific analysis must be performed as each application is subject to different circumstances,” to determine the right strategy for cooling electronics. This analysis is called “CFD analysis,” or computational fluid … [Read more...]

Higher Temperature Rated MLC Capacitors Announced
Knowles brand, Dielectric Laboratories (DLI), has taken temperature performance to a level of 175°C in their Ultra-low ESR and High Q MLC capacitors. DLI detailed the following: “UL is an EIA Class I Stable TC, NP0, Ceramic dielectric, with Ultra Low ESR; High Q, and Low Noise. Parts can now be operated up to +175°C with TCC of 0 ± 60 ppm/ºC (limited to +125°C at 0 ± 30 … [Read more...]
High Temperature Capacitors Could Remove Need for EV Cooling Systems
A new lead-free, high temperature ceramic capacitor developed by scientists at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), UK could improve the efficiency and reliability of electric and hybrid vehicles by enabling the removal of heavy complex cooling systems. “Electric vehicle operating temperatures can go up to 140°C [almost double the temperature conventional capacitors can … [Read more...]
