H.E.L’s iso-BTC e

H.E.L Group (H.E.L), a global developer and manufacturer of innovative laboratory tools for process optimization, safety, and scale-up, has introduced the iso-BTC e, a benchtop isothermal calorimeter for the precise measurement of heat dissipation in semiconductors, either individually or in situ on a printed circuit board (PCB). With this, manufacturers can utilize precise heat power data to develop effective thermal management strategies and designs.

Present tools provide temperature data or electrical measurements, which currently allow semiconductor manufacturers to indirectly quantify heat dissipation. The new iso-BTC e’s design with specialized clamps and large testing plate, offers direct, real-time measurements of heat power in semiconductors, enabling optimization of semiconductor performance and reliability.

Direct measurement of heat power supports the design of chips and PCBs by identifying thermal bottlenecks, power dissipation, and provides advanced thermal validation to prevent overheating. This will ensure the safety and increased performance of semiconductor technologies for use in electric vehicles, data processing, networking and communications, and energy storage.

Louise Madden, CEO at H.E.L Group, said, "Expansion of our portfolio to include the new iso-BTC e extends our reach in the semiconductor market, offering our customers a specifically designed isothermal calorimeter for direct heat dissipation measurement during development and certification processes. The addition of the iso-BTC e alongside our existing product range in chemical synthesis allows H.E.L to offer beginning to end solutions for semiconductor manufacturing."

CalorimetryCalorimetry is a technique used to determine the heat released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. Calorimeters can be categorized into bomb calorimeters, constant pressure calorimeters, differential scanning calorimeters, isothermal titration calorimeters, X-ray microcalorimeters, heat-loss calorimeters, and high-energy particle calorimeters. The choice of calorimeter depends on the application.Thermal Analysis EquipmentThermal analysis equipment is used for measuring heat flow, weight loss, dimension changes or thermomechanical properties and is important for analyzing a material’s performance and stability. Thermal analysis equipment includes differential scanning calorimeters (DSC), thermogravimetric analyzers (TGA), thermomechanical analyzers (TMA), dilatometers, thermometers, vapor sorption analyzers, boiling and melting point apparatus. Thermal analyzers can reveal properties such as melting, crystallization and glass transitions or other processes such as oxidation, decomposition, volatilization, as well as coefficients of thermal expansion and modulus.
