Rethinking the Evolution of the PC industry

Jul 30, 2024 | Dell Inc

The computer industry is one of continual innovation and development, pushing the boundaries of possibility with constantly evolving products. As user needs and demands constantly change and increase, the industry must ensure products meet not just current demands, but also future requirements - resulting in faster, higher performing PCs and hardware. The foundation that this culture of innovation is built on is standards. Widely accepted and utilized standards are necessary to ensure a level playing field throughout any industry, and serve as the building blocks that future innovations can be built on. Standardization of technology is necessary to ensure products not only meet user needs consistently and reliably, but also ensures a level of guaranteed functionality and stability for industry innovators to improve upon. In turn, these advances can offer industrywide improvements and user benefits that then set the new industry standard, becoming the recognized baseline of efficiency and effectiveness that the next generation of innovation is built on....

Effect of Thermal via Design on Heat Dissipation of High-Lead QFN Packages Mounted on PCB

Jul 24, 2024 | Ziyi Yuan, Dongyan Ding and Wenlong Zhang

The quad flat no-lead package (QFN) is widely used in integrated circuits due to its
advantages in performance and cost. With the increasing power of electronic products, effective
heat dissipation from QFN packages has become crucial to prevent product damage. The focus of
this study is to investigate the thermal performance of QFN packages soldered onto printed circuit
boards (PCB) by finite element analysis (FEA). Conventional QFN, dual-row QFN, and high-lead
QFN packages were modeled and compared by ANSYSY software. The effect of thermal via design
(the distance, number, distribution, diameter, and thickness of thermal vias) on the QFN package
was investigated. The study revealed that the high-lead QFN package consistently demonstrated
superior heat dissipation performance than the other two under different conditions. Placing thermal
vias closer to the heat source enhances heat dissipation efficiency. Thermal vias positioned beneath
the thermal pad were particularly effective. Increasing thermal via quantity and diameter improved
heat dissipation, with square distribution layouts showing advantages. However, excessive copper
plating thickness can increase thermal resistance and hinder heat dissipation.

CORRELATION BETWEEN CALCULATION AND PRACTICE FOR SIMPLE TOP-TO-BOTTOM PCB HEAT DISSIPATION USING TIM & VIAS

Jul 24, 2024 | Andreas Nadler, Markus Eberle

A study of the Thermo Design PCB Indicates The better the performance of the heatsink (=low Rth), the more influence the TIMs have  The thickness of a TIM is often more critical than the thermal conductivity of the material  The thermal resistance of the surface between the materials are most critical  Better use many small vias than a few big vias!  Plated or filled vias are very expensive to get, better try to stay with standard!...
