The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) which concluded earlier this month is the largest annual conference and expo for anything or everything in electronics in the continental USA. By some estimates, CES 2017 exceeded the previous year record, topping 177K+ attendees. In such a large conference, enabling technologies like thermal management often take a backseat to the … [Read more...]
Inductive Wireless Charging is Now a Thermal Design Problem
Introduction: It is interesting how different parts of a value chain speak differently, sometimes wildly differently, about a product or feature but they may use the exact same words. For example, both the consumer and the thermal engineer want the device to have “cool” features. Wireless charging is one such hardware feature [1]. Wireless charging was included in over … [Read more...]
Thermal Management in Body-Embedded Electronics
We are entering an era where electronics technology is increasingly being integrated with biological systems in vivo. These technology solutions interact with organs and skeletal-, muscular- and nervous-systems of biological entities through hybridization of disparate solutions that merge to serve a common purpose. Biohybrid systems that interface and thus enable the … [Read more...]
Thermoregulation Comfort Clothing Advance to Product Platforms
Electronics Cooling’s previous coverage of thermoregulation fabrics is further augmented by a very encouraging trend seen at the recent Wearables USA Conference held last week in Silicon Valley, CA. More than half a dozen companies showcased product design platforms that enable OEMs (original equipment manufacturers), ODMs (original device manufacturers), and makers alike to … [Read more...]
Cooling Technology Enables Fashion-Tech Wearable Products
In one of our previous blogs on Electronics Cooling of Humans, we highlighted some of the on-going research projects at various universities in the US sponsored by ARPA-E. These projects are expected to achieve a step-change in the cooling technology of wearable fabrics and the costs of manufacturing them. It is worth noting that prior to the effort sponsored by ARPA-E, thermal … [Read more...]
