As industry prepares for the launch of next-generation copper and optical QSFP-DD transceivers, thermal management strategies are critical. The new Molex QSFP-DD thermal solution can cool a range of 15W to 20W in different configurations with a 15 degree Celsius change from ambient temperature. In data centers and telecommunication infrastructure, 56 and 112 Gbps … [Read more...]
Using Electrical Capacitance to Evaluate the Thermal Mechanical Stability of Thermal Interface Materials
BY: Lauren Boston, Andrew Yu, Timothy Chainer, Edward Yarmchuk, and Michael Gayness To improve cooling of electronic components, a heat spreader is typically attached to the component to spread the heat laterally and facilitate the heat removal by a heat sink. To ensure good thermal conduction between the heat spreader and heatsink, a thermal interface material is applied … [Read more...]
What…Use Lasers and LEDs for Cooling?
In a recent blog “Some New Cooling Ideas are Needed Here,” I suggested (hoped?) that someone would figure out how to leverage the thermal laws of physics to devise innovative cooling systems which go beyond widely used, conventional techniques of conduction, convection, and radiation. The reason for looking beyond these solutions is that they seem to have reached a limit as to … [Read more...]
Thermal Gap Filler Reduces Stress on Sensitive Components
Laird Performance Materials has introduced the Tflex HD80000, a high deflection thermal gap filler combining 6 W/mK thermal conductivity with superior pressure versus deflection characteristics. The combination allows minimal stress on sensitive components within a device while also yielding low thermal resistance. As a result, less mechanical and thermal stresses are … [Read more...]
Thermoelectric Cooling Offers Precise Temperature Control for Incubators
The SuperCool Series offers an air-to-air assembly air conditioner, a direct-to-air heat pump, and a liquid-to-air liquid cooler. Incubators are used for cell and tissue cultivation in hospital and laboratory settings. Accurate and precise control of temperature is important for cell growth, as excursions above or below the optimum mammalian body temperature of 37°C, by as … [Read more...]
