Compact Water-Circulation System Prevents Stacks of Electronic Chips
A research team from the A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics and Nanyang University in Singapore has designed and built a water circulation system to cool stacks of integrated electrical circuits. “The heat must be removed from microchips to maintain a temperature within acceptable limits: less than 100 °C,” explains team-member Navas Khan from the Institute of … [Read more...]
±0.5% Tolerance Chip NTC Thermistors
Murata Electronics North America added the ±0.5% tolerance option to its NCP series negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor line. The ultra-tight tolerance thermistor is offered for consumer, industrial and automotive temperature ranges (-40°C to +150°C), and provides a low-cost alternative to integrated circuit (IC) based sensing solutions when high sensing accuracy … [Read more...]

Study: Carbon Nanotubes Could be Used for New Energy Systems
A team of scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have discovered a previously unknown phenomenon that can cause powerful waves of energy to shoot through minuscule wires known as carbon nanotubes. The discovery could lead to a new way of producing electricity, the researchers say. The phenomenon, described as thermopower waves, is such a new discovery that it’s … [Read more...]
