(May 18, 2016) As the heat produced by electronic components continues to increase, suggestions are made to push for improvement on better managing industrial enclosure temperatures. “Relative to each individual component, the heat of electronic components has increased significantly in recent years,” reported ECNMag.com, “At the same time, the density inside control cabinets … [Read more...]
New Type of Graphene Could Increase Processor Clock Speeds
(May 19, 2016) Recently, scientists from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT), the Institute of Physics and Technology RAS, and Tohoku University (Japan), have developed a new type of graphene-based transistor, whose modeling demonstrates that it has ultralow power consumption compared with other similar transistor devices. The newly proposed design was for a … [Read more...]
Self-Healable Electronic Material That Can Help Prevent Overheating
(May 16, 2016) A new, more durable electronic material has recently been created to repair itself and heal all its functionality even after breaking several times. Phys.org detailed, “Self-healable materials are those that, after withstanding physical deformation such as being cut in half, naturally repair themselves with little to no external influence.” “Researchers have … [Read more...]
Recall On Overheating Laptop Battery Packs
(March 31, 2016) Toshiba recently issued a voluntary recall on its laptop battery packs for potential burn and fire hazards from overheating. According to ConsumerReports.org, the battery packs were manufactured by Panasonic and installed in 39 of Toshiba’s laptop models, including the “Mini Notebook, Portégé, Satellite, Satellite Pro, and Tecra lines of PCs”. But “any laptop … [Read more...]
Laptops May Start Producing Far Less Heat
(May 10, 2016) Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s postdoc Cui-Zu Chang and his colleagues have been “working to create devices with components which have little [to no] resistance to the flow of electricity” in laptops, according to TechRadar.com. Topological insulators, or, “exceptionally thin materials with special properties, which let electrons flow freely across the … [Read more...]
