Sophisticated Thermal and Structural Solutions for 5G and Telecom Devices

The Impressive performance of 5G devices is associated with significant thermal challenges resulting from Integration complexities and high heat flux devices like Power amplifiers. An efficient thermal cooling design is essential to manage the generated heat, which may limit RF performance and ultimately lead to reliability issues. The structural integrity of the device shall be as per the telecom equipment Industry standards (ETSI EN 300 019-2-2) to ensure its durability during and after exposure to intense conditions. The manufacturer must validate the product for Random vibration, Sine Sweep, Shock, Seismic, Acceleration & Wind load requirements.
Our Institutional knowledge of thermal and structural solutions for electronic devices is the chief factor that makes us distinctively different in the industry. Our founders bring over 20 years of experience with global Semiconductor and technology companies like Lam Research Corporation, Applied Materials, and ISRO Satellite design center.
