Thermal Management in Rugged Computer Systems from Electronic Design
Ivan Straznicky talks about the challenges of keeping rugged computer systems designed for military programs cool under harsh conditions as they grow more powerful and more complex.
How Embedded Systems are Coping with the Heat of Today's Avionics
With faster processors, more functions, and higher bandwidth than ever before, today’s avionics are pushing the cooling technology envelope to the breaking point – and beyond.
Until recently, the use of moving liquid to remove excess heat from embedded computing processors was considered an expensive and unreliable luxury, but escalating demand and maturing technologies finally are putting this technology within reach.
Today’s Spacecraft and Satellite Requirements Giving COTS a Fresh Look
The fast growth of small satellites and their lower life cycle and launch costs has created a sizable market for low-cost electronic components that have radiation-resistant characteristics.
