Product overview
Designed into
your next product.
Review the board alongside the heat source, electrical isolation and housing. A clear thermal and mechanical brief helps define the proposed construction.
Follow the heat path.
Bring the circuit, insulating materials and metal substrate into the same review. Define the board-to-housing interface, mounting arrangement and requirements for electrical isolation.
Product type illustration. Materials, construction and final specifications are confirmed for your project.
Application considerations
- LED lighting integration
- Power electronics design
- Board-to-housing thermal interfaces
