Thermal Design Solutions

With increasing competition between electronic device manufacturers and a huge demand for powerful devices, the manufacturers are pumping out new models with different specifications into the market. The engineers at these companies are trying hard to fit in as many features in the device as possible. However, with increasing features, it is becoming more and more difficult for the thermal engineers or  thermal design consultant  to find ways to dissipate the heat generated in these devices. Heat dissipation becomes difficult in smaller devices due to high power densities. During the flow of electric current through passive devices, the generated heat can cause damage as well as cause host of issues that affect their functionalities. If this heat is not dissipated from the device efficiently, it will exceed the junction temperature of the device beyond the safe operating temperature. This may result in poor performance and reduced life of the device.  The objective of the therm

The thermal design of an electronic device is one of the most important factors that anyone designing electronic devices must not neglect. Poor thermal design can result in all kinds of problems, including increased failure rates, sub-optimal functions, and poor thermal ergonomics. That is why thermal design should be one of the earliest considerations in any system design. Otherwise, this can have a very detrimental effect in later stages of product development. Thermal issues are best handled early in the development stage. This is because, it can be hard to make the necessary changes in hardware design to accommodate the thermal solutions in later stages of product development. These days, many companies have dedicated  thermal engineers   who only handle thermal design issues. These engineers spend a great deal of time in thermal analysis and modeling of systems and components. Other companies hire experienced thermal consultants who can provide thermal design services quickly
