Cool-Pad CPR7154 thermal interface material dispenses like a thermal pad, but is said to show characteristics of a grease or gel when device temperatures increase to above 45°C.
Embedded 4G/LTE FR4 surface-mount antenna measuring 28 x 10 x 3.3mm for long, narrow PCB designs. Supports global cellular bands including LTE 700, GSM850/900, DCS1800, PCS1900, WCDMA2100, LTE Band 7 and LTE Band 40, with efficiency up to 68%. Designed for direct PCB soldering without a ground plane adjacent to the antenna, it is supplied in tape-and-reel packaging for automated SMT assembly and is suited for IoT sensors, smart metering, telematics and M2M applications.
Copper nanopaste for inter-board connections in high-layer-count PCBs that achieves 15μΩ·cm volume resistivity through low-temperature sintering in ambient atmosphere. Designed for AI servers, semiconductor inspection equipment and high-speed communication systems, SAphire B contains more than 90 wt% copper, supports screen printing and other application methods, and demonstrated less than 1% resistance change after 1,000 thermal cycles.
