ABSTRACT: Thermal interface materials are a key enabler for efficient removal of heat from ICs to a heat spreader or heat sink. A number of thermal, mechanical, electrical design variables impact the material selection from among the wide spectrum of available thermal interface materials. The interfacial contact resistance is a critical factor in minimizing the overall thermal impedance. Real-world applications will be presented to illustrate the concepts. Technology and market trends that drive the development of thermal interface materials will be discussed.
