Do you know the thermal conductivity of paper? This was the start of a phone call a few years ago. The conversation continued and the reason for the question became apparent. A thermal analysis of a printed circuit board had determined that a thermal interface material was needed under some hotter components to provide a better conduction path. The circuit card was edge cooled … [Read more...]
