Cooling Technology For Next Gen Power Electronics
By Technical Paper Link - 04 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

A new technical paper titled "Advances in Two-Phase Cooling for Next Power Electronics Converters" was published by researchers at ROMA TRE University, ENEA Casaccia Research Center and Sapienza University. "The proposed arrangement allows a greater extraction of the heat at a very low flow rate of the cooling fluid, even with standard industrial-grade heat-sinks, which motivates the use of ... » read more

Liquid Cooling, Meeting The Demands Of AI Data Centers
By Barry Pangrle - 04 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Many Porsche “purists” reflect forlornly upon the 1997, 5th generation, 996 version of the iconic 911 sports car. It was the first year of the water-cooled engine versions of the 911, which had previously been based on air-cooled engines since their entry into the market in 1964. The 911 was also the successor to the popular air-cooled 356. For over three decades, Porsche’s flagship 911 w... » read more

Research Bits: July 30

Embedded thermoelectric devices Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University propose using locally embedded thermoelectric devices (TEDs) to perform active cooling inside circuits. “Circuits like clock generators and arithmetic and logic units (ALU) create high-frequency heat fluxes with their peak hot spots occurring on the microprocessor,” said Feng Xio... » read more

Data Center Thermal Management Improves
By Karen Heyman - 18 Jul, 2024 - Comments: 0

Thermal issues are plaguing semiconductor design at every level, from chips developed with single-digit nanometer processes to 100,000-square-foot data centers. The underlying cause is too many devices or services that require increasing amounts of power, and too few opportunities for the resulting heat to dissipate. “Everybody wants to try to do more in a small volume of space,” said St... » read more

IC Industry’s Growing Role In Sustainability
By Ann Mutschler - 17 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 1

The massive power needs of AI systems are putting a spotlight on sustainability in the semiconductor ecosystem. The chip industry needs to be able to produce more efficient and lower-power semiconductors. But demands for increased processing speed are rising with the widespread use of large language models and the overall increase in the amount of data that needs to be processed. Gartner estima... » read more

Liquid Cooling And GaN: A Winning Combination
By Paul Wiener - 06 Jun, 2024 - Comments: 0

Data centers are facing an unprecedented transformation due to the surge in generative AI and other emerging technologies. A single ChatGPT session consumes 50 to 100 times more energy than a comparable Google search, escalating data center rack power requirements towards 200 kW or more, presenting serious challenges for operators. Cooling, in fact, takes up about 40% of the power requireme... » read more

Package Integrated Vapor Chamber Heat Spreaders
By Sanghyuk Kim - 21 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

With continuous increases in computational demand in nearly all electronics market segments, even historically lower power packaging is being driven into challenging thermal management situations. Node shrink alone is reaching a limit in maintaining track with Moore’s law. The economics and yield challenges of large monolithic system on chip (SoC) designs are driving the development of silico... » read more

Cooling The Data Center
By Karen Heyman - 15 Mar, 2023 - Comments: 0

Since British mathematician and entrepreneur Clive Humby coined the rallying cry, “Data is the new oil,” some 20 years ago, it has been an upbeat phrase at data science conferences. But in engineering circles, that increasingly includes a daily grind of hardware challenges, and chief among them is how to cool the places where all that data is processed and stored. An estimated 65 zettaby... » read more

Thermal Management Challenges and Requirements of 3 types of Microelectronic Devices
By Technical Paper Link - 20 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical paper titled "A Review on Transient Thermal Management of Electronic Devices" from researchers at Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. Abstract "Much effort in the area of electronics thermal management has focused on developing cooling solutions that cater to steady-state operation. However, electronic devices are increasingly being used in applications involving time-varyi... » read more

Advancing Electric Vehicle Battery Characterization By Integrating Drive Cycle On Cooling Impacts
By Ansys - 09 Mar, 2022 - Comments: 0

Battery powered electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have been gaining market share as the public’s environmental concerns drive the demand for better fuel efficiency. Apart from the need to improve the mileage one can drive before recharging, battery reliability is another major concern. Effective cooling in intense charge/discharge conditions is crucial to minimizi... » read more
