Use of a graphene in silicon-based electronics could help increase energy efficiency by significantly reducing hotspot temperatures inside processors, an international team of researchers has claimed. Modern electronics systems generate a large amount of heat, due in part to the increasing demand for smaller, more powerful devices. While traditional cooling methods have … [Read more...]
Gap Filler Thermal Interface Material for Silicone-Sensitive Electronic Applications
The Bergquist Company, a supplier of thermal management materials, has released Gap Filler 1500LV, a new “low volatility, two-component, liquid-dispensable thermal interface material that offers the high temperature resistance and low modulus of a silicone material with minimal outgassing.” According to the company, the new gap filler is ideal for use with fragile components … [Read more...]
Why Not Just Shove a Heatsink on Top of it? Part 3: Pads, Vias and Undersinking
An appreciation of heat flow paths is a pre-requisite for good thermal design. If you attempt to augment heat flow where there is none then your expectations are as futile as your design skills. The real value of simulation for me is that it enables an insight into the behaviour of a proposed design (this is true for simulation of any design and any behaviour). Once you … [Read more...]

Nano-Scale Transistors May Lift Heat Dissipation Limit in Tiny Electronics
A quantum-tunneling device created without semiconducting materials by scientists at Michigan Technological University could find use as a nano-scale transistor in tiny future electronic devices. As electronic devices continue to become progressively smaller and more sophisticated, scientists have successfully developed methods to place up to millions of transistors on a … [Read more...]
