Electronics are becoming smaller and smaller and the requirement to dissipate heat is constantly growing. The lack of an efficient thermal management strategy can lead to low performance, energy inefficiency, system failure, and even serious damage. With numerical simulation, such strategies can be tested early in the design process. This article shows how to use this … [Read more...]
Precision-Clad Composite Materials for Heat Spreaders in Handheld Electronics
The selection of heat-spreader materials is an important consideration for cooling modules in handheld electronic systems. Heat spreaders are typically used in close contact with the source of heat. This can be, for example, a subcomponent, chip, or microelectronic package. The heat spreader transfers and distributes heat from the source to a heat sink through a thermal … [Read more...]
