WEBINAR & TRIVIA: Keeping it Cool! Thermal Management Of Power Supplies

HEAT IS NOT YOUR FRIEND: THERMAL MANAGEMENT OF POWER SUPPLIES

THIS EVENT HAS PASSED. REGISTER TO WATCH ON-DEMAND!

Thermal management is an important part of the system design process. Understanding temperature management can help improve product design and extend the life of your system. However, to ensure appropriate thermal management practices during the design process, you must first understand heat transfer and thermal impedance, as well as the three fundamental means to transfer heat energy from warm objects to cold objects. During this training, we will discuss conduction, convection, and radiation heat transfer as well as how to measure temperature and airflow. 

Join our special guest speaker President and Chief Engineer at Embedded Power Labs, Bob White, and Mechanical Engineer Manager, Matthew Fuhrmann, as they discuss the best techniques to ensure good thermal management in your next system design. 

In this webinar you will learn:

• The basics of heat transfer and thermal impedance
• Proper techniques to move heat within your system and improve the lifetime of your equipment
• How to measure temperature and airflow during the design process
