Laird has recently developed a high heat flux density thermoelectric module (TEM) designed to achieve a higher heat pumping capacity than standard TEMs, called UltraTEC. “The UltraTEC Series TEM has a heat pumping capacity up to 340 watts, which is ideal for larger cooling applications with limited surface area such as industrial lasers,” claimed Laird. It also has a “precise … [Read more...]
New Availability of Data Matrix Codes (DMCs)
Rogers has announced that they can add data matrix codes (DMCs) to a wide range of metalized substrates, including direct-bonded-copper and active-metal-brazed substrates. The codes can be “text or numeric in form and encoded by code-reading camera systems” and “are written on metalized surfaces by means of a thin oxide layer formed by an optical laser system,” said the … [Read more...]
New Material Cools Solar Cells Yet Absorbs Sunlight
Recently, researchers from Stanford University have achieved a combination of cooling and maintaining sunlight absorption with a wafer made of silica to better cool solar cells, according to BusinessWire.com. BusinessWire.com explained, “The researchers etched tapered holes, about 6 micrometers across and 10 micrometers deep, in the wafer. The holes are designed to smooth the … [Read more...]
New USB Type-C Connectors and Cable Assemblies
Heilind Electronics has recently added Molex USB Type-C shielded I/O connectors and cable assemblies to its stock. The Type-C connectors offer a “more compact design” with “greater PCB savings, while allowing high-frequency mating in data, consumer, automotive, and industrial I/O applications,” according to Heilind. Heilind also said it’s “Type-C receptacles have a tongued … [Read more...]
Graphene Nanoflakes Better Dissipates Electronics’ Heat
(April 29, 2016) Recently, a team of researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a more efficient approach to cooling electronics using graphene nanoflake-based film. According to E&T, the team performed “experiments in which they managed to increase the efficiency of heat transfer by 76 per cent” – the kind of results that suggest … [Read more...]
