AT&S Enables "Cool" Designs for Miniaturized High-Power Applications

Embedded and Inserted Heat Pipes Significantly Improve Heat Dissipation

Miniaturization and increasing power densities are major concerns for modern electronic applications. The lifetime of electronic applications can be dramatically reduced by the increase of the working temperatures by just a few degrees.Further, the insulation of the whole printed circuit board (PCB) from the environment in order to provide efficient protection against humidity and dust for certain applications turns heat dissipation an even more challenging task.
