High-power LED applications, including arrays of LEDs, require thermal management like other semiconductor devices. High temperatures not only degrade an LED's lifetime, but also cause lower light or non-uniform output effects that can significantly affect the application. With today's increasing power densities, higher demand for light output, and limited space, more advanced cooling solutions are needed.
ATS STAR? heat sinks reduce LED temperatures by more than 50%. The heat sink design features a low profile, spread fin array that maximizes surface area for more effective convection air cooling. ATS STAR? heat sinks are fabricated from extruded aluminum, which minimizes thermal resistance, reduces weight, and keeps costs low.
Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc ATS is a leading-edge engineering/manufacturing company focused on the thermal management of electronics.
