Design Guide: Heat Sinks for High-Power Applications

Without appropriate thermal management, electronic components will degrade over time, causing problems ranging from minor errors to critical failures.

Elastomeric Connectors suit portable and handheld devices.

Gold STAX(TM) zero-insertion-force connectors are composed of alternating layers of conductive and non-conductive silicone rubber. Interconnection is made by deflecting elastomeric connector between mirror image pad patterns on mating substrates. Gold-coated particles embedded within low-durometer silicone create thousands of conductive paths, providing multiple points of contact to substrate...

Connectivity Engine supports Linux operating system.

Model VCE405 is based on 400 Dhrystone MIPS/266 MHz IBM PowerPC 405GP 32-bit RISC embedded controller. Dual PMC slots support 64-bit PCI buses. Power consumption of 6.5 W eliminates need for heat sinks or cooling fans, and with operating range up to 185Ã-
