Since the size of electronic components keeps on decreasing, the need for improved heat dissipation on these components keeps increasing. This dichotomy presents thermal engineers with a formidable challenge: how to design smaller coolers that dissipate more heat. Adding to the challenge, the fast-paced evolution of electronics means that the development time for the new cooler … [Read more...]
Generative Design for Electronics Cooling
Co-Authored by: Danny J. Lohan, Yuqing Zhou, and Ercan M. Dede Toyota Research Institute of North America INTRODUCTION Generative design is an iterative design process that involves the use of a program to generate a set of optimized designs that meet product performance requirements and constraints. Methods that transform statements of performance requirements into … [Read more...]

Heat-Blocking Defects Detected Acoustically
In the landing gear control module of an aircraft, a high-voltage IGBT is about to fail. In the solder bonding one chip’s ceramic base to its heat sink are three small air bubbles—voids, in the vocabulary of electronic failures. The three voids are close together, and the largest is almost directly under a hot spot on the die. Collectively the voids have diminished … [Read more...]
