The JESD51-14 standard was published in November 2010, prepared by the JEDEC JC-15 Committee on Thermal Characterization. It outlines a new process to measure what is the most common IC package thermal metric, Theta_jc. This is the thermal resistance between the die and the package case face. More specifically the face of the package that is to be cooled by an external … [Read more...]
New Magnetic Cooling Technology Decreases Environmental Impact of Cooling, Avoids Side Effects of Magnetic Fields on Electronics
Researchers from the University of Cambridge, U.K. and CIC nanoGUNE in Spain have developed a new cooling technology for the thermal management of computer chips and other miniaturized devices that utilizes materials that change their temperature when exposed to magnetic fields. Materials measuring only 20 nm tick and comprised of comprised of lanthanum, calcium, manganese and … [Read more...]
