A previous Electronics Cooling article, which discussed the process for analyzing the thermal performance of cooling fans [1], mentioned the need of accounting for the increasing coolant temperature as air passes through a heat sink. That article used an ‘average’ air temperature, which was defined as the midpoint between the inlet and outlet air temperatures. This article … [Read more...]
Thermally Optimizing a High-Power PCB for Battery Powered Electronics
Introduction The growth of battery powered applications is presenting new challenges for designers of electronic motor-driven solutions. Targeting higher performance and efficiency, the power stages of these products must manage high currents while meeting strict power dissipation and size requirements. This article illustrates a thermally aware workflow with Cadence® Celsius™ … [Read more...]

What Role Does PCB Copper Balance Play in PCB Fabrication?
PCB Fabrication is the process of building a physical PCB from a circuit board design by following the prescribed set of specifications. The understanding of the design specifications is very significant as it affects the PCB’s manufacturability, performance, and production yield rate. One of the vital design specifications to be followed is the ‘copper balance’ in the PCB … [Read more...]
