Aavid-Thermalloy Expands Line of DC/DC Converter Heat Sinks - 1/8th Brick Thermal Solutions Now Available
Share:
Concord, NH, USA, October 11, 2007 - Aavid Thermalloy, LLC, the world leader in thermal solutions for cooling electronics has announced the availability of heat sinks for industry standard 1/8 brick form factors.
Despite significant gains in converter efficiency, smaller eighth brick packages still pose thermal challenges due to increased power density. Aavid Thermalloy's newly expanded line of heat sinks help engineers overcome the power density hurdle with complete off-the-shelf cooling solutions for industry standard eighth brick converters. Unlike other converter heat sinks, Aavid designs feature thin fin geometry to improve thermal performance which reduces temperature for increased reliability. Thinner fins also reduce pressure drop, thereby improving system airflow and lowering fan costs. In addition, all heat sinks are ready for mounting with interface material pre-applied which streamlines procurement and assembly.
Models are available in both lengthwise and crosswise airflow directions and come in three different heights for a precise match to your application.
Pricing and Availability
Parts will be available in December with prices starting at $2.00 for OEM quantities of 1000 pcs. Samples are available upon request.
