Thermal Management at the PCB Level

Workshop Overview

This one-day workshop brings into focus the problems, and solutions, of designing PCBs for the thermal environment, and will show how to achieve this by the use of practical examples.

The aim of this workshop is to provide delegates with a comprehensive understanding of the principles and practice of thermal management in electronic systems.

Workshop Highlights

- Principles of heat transfer

The science which seeks to predict the energy transfer which may take place between material bodies as a result of a temperature difference.

- Component & PCB level cooling

Thermal resistance; junction-to-case, junction-to-ambient and resistance models.

- Factors of influence for natural & forced convection cooling

Influence of air flow and power level, influence of PCB copper content.

- Thermal design guidelines for PCBs

Current carrying capabilities of PCBs, glass transition temperature, IPC-2152.

- System level cooling

PCB and fan interactions, axial fans, radial fans, multiple fans.

- Case studies

Case studies of thermal management problems with practical solutions.

- Prototype validation and test

Measurements on prototypes and mock-ups are an essential phase in the design and testing of an electronic systems.

- Key tools & technologies

Emerging technologies: micro fans, phase change materials. Simulation tools.
