Sensible Design: Thermal
Management—Good Design
Practice for Heat Dissipation
E
Trial and error is an essential process in the
development of new and innovative products;
however, excessive testing can be unnecessary
and costly. Incorporating thermal management
at the preliminary stage of your design process
will ultimately lead to more reliable and cost-
effective end products.

My Life in PCB Design E
In a cold (62°F), semi-dark
room, there are banks of main-
frame computers along one
wall; a so light glows upward
from the table in the corner. I
take my kit—a variety of sizes
of black, red, and blue tape, decals, and an
X-Acto knife—and set it on the side table.
