SinkPAD Corporation's New Thermal Management PCBs Solving Thermal Problems for LED Industry(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) PLACENTIA, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 06/01/11 -- SinkPAD Corporation has announced its new SinkPADTM* aluminum PCB technology is now available. CTO Kris Vasoya stated, "We are up and running, ready to support our customers with our problem-solving LED thermal management PCBs using our SinkPAD™ technology. We are open for business." SinkPAD Corporation's new thermally enhanced PCBs are a complete and effective solution to the challenges faced by the solid state lighting industry, specifically those with aluminum LED PCB applications. Available now, the new SinkPAD™ technology significantly improves LED thermal management in all LED systems. It is most effective in high-power LED cooling, making it possible for commercialization. SinkPAD™ conducts heat out of the LED system (LED conduction cooling) by enabling a direct thermal path between the LED and surrounding atmosphere. The LED thermal resistance can be substantially reduced by eliminating the lowest thermal conductivity/highest thermal resistance component, the dielectric material. Unlike conventional IMS PCB or MCPCB, the dielectric material in a SinkPAD™ PCB functions only as an electrically insulated barrier to the metal base but leaves it thermally connected, i.e. direct thermal path. The thermal path of an LED should be electrically neutral within the LED package, i.e. Cree XP, XM-L, MT-G, XR, Luxeon Rebel from Philips Lumiled, Oslon SSL from OSARM, N219 from Nichia, PhlatLight from Luminus etc., in order to solder the LED directly to the SinkPAD™. To find out how SinkPAD's technology (LED thermal PCB) can remove the heat in your LED application, contact SinkPAD Corporation or visit the SinkPAD website, www.sinkpad.com. About SinkPADSinkPAD Corporation is an innovative thermal management company addressing the thermal challenges facing the electronics industry. The company's patent pending PCB technology makes it possible to conduct heat out of the LED system and into the atmosphere quickly and cost effectively while providing their customers with a first-to-market competitive advantage. *The term SinkPAD is trademark protected Image Available: http://www2.marketwire.com/mw/frame_mw?attachid=1629948 CONTACTS: SinkPAD Corporation Kris Vasoya 714-660-2944 Ext. 1001 Email Contact Email: Email Contact Web: www.sinkpad.com Source: SinkPAD Corporation |
