The IEEE Intersociety Conference on Thermal and Thermomechanical Phenomena in Electronic Systems (ITherm) was held at the JW Marriott Grande Lakes, Orlando, FL, May 30 – June 2, 2023. This was the 22nd ITherm, which was first held in 1988. The conference was historically held every other year until 2016 when it switched to an annual schedule. ITherm 2023 was sponsored by the … [Read more...]
Statistics Corner: Weibull Distribution
A little over a pandemic ago, the first article in this series on statistical analysis mentioned that a fundamental aspect of statistics is that one assumes a mathematical model that describes the distribution of a data set and then uses that model to estimate the probability that a given value or set of values will occur [1]. This allows us, for example, to estimate whether … [Read more...]
Machine Learning Optimization to Boost the Effectiveness of Phase Change Material (PCM)-Based On-Chip Passive Thermal Management
Written by: Dr. Amy Marconnet and Meghavin Bhatasana - Purdue University Although miniaturization of electronic components has helped advance computing power and accelerated technology development, it has increased power densities and exacerbated the already challenging issue of electronics cooling at the component level. Continuous operation at high temperatures degrades … [Read more...]
Future Trends in LED Driver System Modeling
Introduction A decade ago, the major players in the lighting industry decided to make the transition to digital systems and set the pace in connected lighting. At present, only a few companies can maintain their leadership. As a self-fulfilling prophecy, the lighting landscape changed remarkably, with scattered competitors having access to internet of things (IoT) ecosystems … [Read more...]
Upper Air Room Disinfection with UV-C Luminaire – Metrics and Multi-Domain Modeling Approach
In my previous article, I questioned how our simulation community of experts can contribute in this pandemic time? I am coming back to present examples of contributions. While the general topic of this article is outside the typical scope of Electronics Cooling Magazine, it does illustrate how analysis methods that are discussed here, such as computational fluid dynamics, and … [Read more...]
