I-Connect007 Launches Thermal Management with Insulated Metal Substrates eBook
February 13, 2018 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
I-Connect007 is excited to announce the release of the latest title in our micro eBook design series: The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… Thermal Management with Insulated Metal Substrates.
The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… is an ongoing book series specifically dedicated to educating PCB designers, and serves as a valuable resource for people seeking the most relevant design information available.
Considering thermal issues in the earliest stages of the design process is critical. Written by Didier Mauve, sales and marketing manager at Ventec International Group, and Ian Mayoh, technical support manager, this book highlights the need to dissipate heat from electronic devices.
The authors provide essential information required to understand the thermal, electrical, and mechanical characteristics of insulated metal substrate laminates. The book also aims to aid PCB designers in the selection and specification of materials for particular applications, which will contribute to more reliable and cost-effective designs.
Alun Morgan, Chairman at EIPC, describes the book as, "A comprehensive tour through the world of thermal management. Required reading for designers and end users wishing to understand the science and practice of using insulated metal substrate materials."
Readers will develop a comprehensive awareness of the physical realities of insulated metal substrates and their applications in the thermal management of electronic assemblies.

We revisit the real cost to manufacture in a case study on how a seemingly small design error can have a dramatic effect on your end customer’s costs. Dan Beaulieu provides this month’s book review highlighting the criticality of fostering creativity in the workplace. Bert Horner of The Test Connection discusses his decision to launch a new, complimentary business venture, The Training Connection; and Ramon Roche of NCAB talks about electric vehicle charging.
If You Can Define It Right, You Can Design It Right
12/05/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007Design engineer Chris Young is known for his optimized design process. As lead hardware engineer with Moog Space and Defense Group and owner of Young Engineering Services, Chris collects data like it’s going out of style, and he leaves nothing to chance. With that in mind, I asked Chris to discuss his views on rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided, and how rules fit ideally into the PCB design process.
