Thermal design: Get the heat out of the electronics
https://www.electronics-lab.com/thermal-design-get-heat-electronics/
Paul Rako@ edn.com discuss about thermal design in electronics and how to design your board to dissipate it effectively. If you have high-powered LEDS, or a power supply, or are trying to control larger motors, you have to get a lot of heat out of your circuit boards. The classic way to dissipate heat is […]
Lightweight Body Heat – Electricity Converter
https://www.electronics-lab.com/lightweight-body-heat-electricity-converter/
Powering wearable technologies using thermoelectric generators (TEGs) is becoming more efficient. An undergraduate student in North Carolina University, Haywood Hunter, is producing a lightweight and an efficient wearable thermoelectric generator. It generates electricity by making use of the temperature differential between the body and the ambient air.This converter produces 20 times more electricity than other […]
