Free circuit-prototyping service supports advanced thermal management technology
Cambridge Nanotherm’ novel dielectric nano-ceramic material claims to be the world’s best solution for wicking-away heat from LEDs and other semiconductors.
Designers using Spirit’s Go Naked prototyping service will be able to use Cambridge Nanotherm’s technology to create PCB designs featuring aggressive thermal profiles. The designs might include small or high-Lumen LEDs or hot-running power ICs. Cambridge Nanotherm’s heat dissipation technology also allows engineers to create smaller designs with a significantly lower overall BOM.
"We tested hundreds of thermal management materials and Cambridge Nanotherm clearly came out on top," explained Lee Lloyd, Sales Director at Spirit Circuits. "Cambridge Nanotherm’s nanoceramic dielectric technology conducts heat two to three times better than its nearest competitor. Crucially, it fits within existing PCB manufacturing processes and the appropriate price envelope for affordable mass manufacturing. With this technology in place our customers will be able to build circuits with more thermally-aggressive profiles, featuring smaller, brighter LEDs, or hot-running power ICs."
Cambridge Nanotherm has expanded the production-capacity of the company’s Haverhill plant with the installation of a high-capacity automated production line. Spirit is therefore ramping up its reseller relationship to capitalise on this expanded ability to fulfil bulk orders.
"Go Naked is a visionary programme and the leading example in the world." said Ralph Weir, CEO of Cambridge Nanotherm. "Engineers can test circuit designs for free before advancing them into commercial form. That suits our purposes perfectly: Cambridge Nanotherm is keen for as many engineers as possible to see what its nano-ceramic thermal management technology can do for their designs".
?This relationship, along with our expanding production capacity, is excellent proof of Cambridge Nanotherm?s increasing momentum.?
Cambridge Nanotherm’s nano-ceramic thermal management technology is available today as part of Spirit’s Go Naked programme.
