We designed Heat Sink Tech Tips to provide engineers with refresher information and interesting summaries of key technologies used for cooling electronics. Further, we wanted to do it fast and regularly while not getting in the way.
When you sign-up for our Tech-Tips Newsletter, we’ll update you once per month on new content on this page and give you early notification and access to our whitepapers.
Heat Sink Calculator: Metal vs Vapor Chamber
An online heat sink calculator is an essential tool for engineers designing thermal management systems. It evaluates the thermal performance of heat sinks by comparing
What Are Thermal Straps?
Thermal straps are flexible conductive links designed to transfer heat, typically up to a few hundred watts, between components in thermal management systems. Made from
Two-Phase Heat Sink Design Options
For high(er) heat flux applications, such as a 28 W/cm² (250W IC at 30×30mm), achieving a thermal resistance below 0.2°C/W (50°C delta-T) often requires a
Heat Pipe Wick Selection
Choosing the right wick structure is critical for achieving the best performance in heat pipe applications. Factors such as power density, orientation, and specific design
