Single Electron Diode May Control Heat Flow in Tiny Future Electronics

 

As the scale of electronic devices and their components continues to shrink, researchers at Aalto University in Finland are re-examining options for fine-tuning control of the heat generated by electronic components. Doctoral student Tomi Ruokola, in cooperation with researcher Teemu Ojanen of O.V. Lounasmaa Laboratory, has developed a single-electron diode that allows heat to … [Read more...]

Calculation Corner: Transient Thermal Modeling of a High-Power IC Package, Part 1

 

Part II can be found here. There is an increasing need for calculating integrated circuit temperatures during conditions of changing chip power. Varying computer workloads and the implementation of power-saving strategies are leading to greater variability in chip power levels than in the past. As reliability requirements get more stringent there are growing concerns about the … [Read more...]

Efficient Electro-Thermal Simulation of Power Semiconductor Devices via Model Order Reduction

 

Thermal management is an increasingly important consideration in the development of power electronic systems. Electro-thermal simulation is required at the system level in order to ensure under realistic loads the fulfillment of thermal requirements, which strongly influence the performance, reliability and efficiency. A significant modeling issue is to obtain a compact but … [Read more...]
