Power Issues Grow For Cloud Chips


Performance levels in traditional or hyperscale data centers are being limited by power and heat caused by an increasing number of processors, memory, disk and operating systems within servers. The problem is so complex and intertwined, though, that solving it requires a series of steps that hopefully add up to a significant reduction across a system. But at 7nm and below, predicting exactly... » read more

Temperature Reduction on a High-Power Thermal Demonstrator


High-power applications in microelectronic devices and systems is a crucial and severe issue that may cause elevated thermal and thermomechanical phenomena and finally lead the fabricated system to degradation, limitation of its performance, or even failure and destruction of its features. In specific applications, such as those found in the industry and the automotive sector, the power pro... » read more
