Beat the Heat With New Book on Thermal Management Design Processes
September 15, 2020 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Learn how to beat the heat in your designs with The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to…Thermal Management: A Fabricator’s Perspective—the latest title in our educational library. The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… series is specifically dedicated to educating PCB designers and serves as a valuable resource for people seeking the most relevant design information available.
Thermal management is one of the fastest-growing areas of the PCB segment, far outpacing the projected growth for the overall industry. While demand was originally driven by high-power telecommunication and mil-aero applications, it has rapidly expanded to include automotive, consumer electronics, and medical sectors.
Written by Anaya Vardya, president and CEO of American Standard Circuits, this book serves as a desk reference for designers on the most current thermal management techniques and methods from a PCB fabrication perspective, including a case study on an extreme mixed-technology design. Vardya also shares considerations designers should discuss with their PCB fabricators to ensure manufacturability, cost-effective solutions, and successful product launches.
Denis Boulanger, principal manufacturing engineer at Raytheon Technologies, says, "This book provides a comprehensive look at thermal management and PCB design issues from the fabricator’s perspective. I am glad that it exists now that I have 'gone over to the dark side,' where I am a consumer rather than a fabricator and/or material supplier."
PCB designers and design engineers, both new and veteran, will gain a thorough understanding of thermal management design processes.
