A consortium of five Australian car-parts makers will collaborate over the next 15 months in the creation of a completely electric version of the Holden Commodore, a popular model made by a subsidiary of General Motors in Australia. Among other contributions, thermal specialist Air International will help keep the heat-generating electronics cool under pressure, electronics … [Read more...]
8 V P-Channel Power MOSFET
New 8 V p-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET has the lowest on-resistance achieved for a p-channel device in the thermally enhanced PowerPAK® SC-70 2 mm by 2 mm footprint area (16 mΩ at 4.5 V, 26 mΩ at 1.8 V, 32 mΩ at 1.5 V, and 95 mΩ at 1.2 V). The ultra-small PowerPAK SC-70 package of the SiA427DJ is optimized for small handheld electronics. The new device will be used for load … [Read more...]
Researchers Developing Silver-Diamond Thermal Shim
Researchers at the Georgia Tech Research Institute are developing a solid composite material, made of silver and diamond to cool small, powerful microelectronics used in defense systems. The diamonds provide the bulk of thermal conductivity, while the silver suspends the diamond particles within the composite and contributes to high thermal conductivity. The research is … [Read more...]
New Material Provides Greater Thermoelectric Conversion Efficiency
Automobiles, military vehicles, even large-scale power generating facilities may someday operate far more efficiently thanks to a new alloy developed at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames Laboratory. A team of researchers at the Lab that is jointly funded by the DOE Office of Basic Energy Sciences, Division of Materials Sciences and Engineering and the Defense Advanced … [Read more...]
Cooling Fans Work Harder when Contamination Accumulates on Circuit Boards
Contamination accumulated on electronic circuit boards will cause temperatures in electronics to rise, triggering cooling fans to work harder to keep the equipment below its operating temperature limit, according to a new research paper by 8 Solutions. Untreated contamination is costing the data centre industry millions of pounds each year, the authors say. The study, which … [Read more...]
