Cooling Options And Challenges Of High Power Semiconductor Modules
Introduction Trends in power electronics systems and devices over the last decade have placed increasing demands on the efficiencies of the thermal management systems used for power Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET) and Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) modules. The pressure to decrease the size of power electronics systems and, subsequently, the … [Read more...]
Review of Low Profile Cold Plate Technology for High Density Servers
Introduction Water cooling of computers was introduced more than twenty years ago, but had disappeared from the mainstream by the mid 1990s. The conversion of chip technology from bipolar to CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) was the main reason. As chip powers continue to increase, water cooling appears likely to become mainstream again. In the current market, the … [Read more...]
