Where there is power there is heat, and where there is heat there is often a need to sense temperature (the most widely sensed physical variable). What we call temperature is our measurement of a ...

Micro-Scale Peltier Cooler Modules Enable Thermal Management for Laser Diodes, Optical Transceivers, and Photodetectors ...

With CPUs and chip sets running at clock speeds that were once thought of only in terms of UHF and microwave communications frequencies, heat generation is a problem for PC-system designers. The ...

How an advanced material can become both p- and n-material based on temperature gradient. The process by which this material was discovered and enhanced. The possible applications of this device ...

Said to simplify design processes, the TMP411 ±1°C remote junction and local temperature sensor monitors thermal diodes found in CPUs, microprocessors, graphics processing units, and FPGAs. The device ...

Microchip has announced 10 automotive-grade multi-channel temperature monitoring ICs that use external diodes, transistors or substrate diodes (MCU or other die) as sensors. Called the MCP998x family, ...

Central Semiconductor has created a line novel of zero temperature coefficient current limiting diodes, packaged in DPAK and rated at between 27 and 575mA. Minimum voltages range across 1.5 to 2V – ...

Thermal diodes provide a useful means for monitoring junction temperature on die and are typically independently powered from the rest of the SoC. The ...
