HDVP Engineered Thermal Solutions (ETS)
Customer Challenges
- Components mounted on PCB surfaces are overheating
- System density is ever increasing
- Engineers are forced to place more power in less space
- Traditional PCBs have very poor thermal performance.
- Thinner PCBs (0.015” –0.025”) have multiple challenges when fitted with embedded copper coins.
- Engineered Thermal Solutions (ETS) is an innovative approach that improves PCB thermal performance while enhancing layout flexibility.
- Drill spacing can be tangentially touching.
- Fill options can be customized
- 100% Cu fill
- Cu plating with Via Fill
- Layout flexibility allows for nearly any geometry to be created;
- Helps to maximize PCB area utilization and achieve smaller designs
- High density via pattern can customize for each thermal load.
- Traces can be routed through multiple angels and layers
- Via patterns can be very small and more flexible versus standard coins
ETS technology is an enhanced replacement of embedded copper coins in thin boards 15 – 25 mils (0.38 – 0.635 mm) thick
- ETS can be applied in 2 ways
- 1:1 direct coin replacement
- Selective improvement to specific thermal areas
- Selective ETS can be very small and more flexible versus standard coins
- Smallest ETS area – 0.015” x 0.030” (0.38 x 0.76mm)
- As a reference, Coin Size in the image below – 0.24” square (6.1mm)
- Selective ETS greatly improved PCB space utilization
- ETS requires only 30% space required for direct coin replacement (For this application)
- Helps to reduce design size and layer count
