Heat-related issues may already be plaguing Apple’s new third-generation iPad. According to tests conducted by Consumer Reports, the new third-generation iPad measured approximately 12 to 13 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than the second-generation iPad. Consumers have also reported unauthorized “shut-downs” of their devices in warmer climates but thus far, no official statement … [Read more...]
Diamond-Thin Films Cool Electronics
Two new studies performed at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have revealed a new pathway for materials scientists to use previously unexplored properties of nanocrystalline-diamond thin films. The unusually attractive thermal properties of diamond thin films have led scientists to suggest using this material as a heat sink that could be integrated … [Read more...]
Slim Form Factor Liquid Cooling for Laptops and All-In-Ones
Asetek Inc. announced today a new slim form factor liquid cooling technology for extreme performance and workstation grade laptops and All-In-One PCs. The fundamental challenge in cooling desktop replacement laptops and All-In-One PCs is the lack of space for a proper thermal solution. Consequently, previous attempts at liquid cooling laptops have offered no performance … [Read more...]
Company Demonstrates Thermal Cooling Jet Technology
GE Global Research presented its advanced, dual piezoelectric, thermal cooling jet (DCJ) during a vendor workshop at SEMI-THERM 28. The DCJ, a 1 mm thick, ultra-compact bellows device provides air flow more efficiently than a traditional cooling fan and in less space. Its thin form factor allows for more design flexibility in electronics applications, such as tablets, where … [Read more...]
Range of Diamond Materials Used in Thermal Management Applications
Element Six has developed a range of polycrystalline diamond and synthetic diamond composite materials that can be used in a wide range of thermal management applications. Synthetic diamond is an ideal material for a range of thermal management applications, and has a thermal conductivity four times higher than copper. In addition, the material is an electric insulator. The … [Read more...]
