HSP-technology: Examples application
Heatsink pastes HSP 2740 and HSP 2741
• Epoxy based
• Soldering resistant
• High (chemical) resistance
• Very hard
Typical processing by PCB-manufacturer:
• Preparation of screen or stencil
• 1. Print (e.g. plugging of heat vias)
• Intermediate cure if needed
• 2. Print (building up layer)
• Thermal cure (45 min @ 150°C)
Heatsink paste TIP 2792
• Silicone base
• Soft/elastic = better connection to cooling element
• Soldering resistant
Typical processing by PCB-manufacturer
• similar to HSP 2740 / HSP 2741, thermal cure 30 min
@ 120°C

Thermal interface paste: Summary
•
Good thermal conductivity
•
Electrical insulator
•
Can be combined with HSP to
enhance coupling heat vias and carry
out double prints where required
•
Soft / elastic adjustment leading to
excellent thermal coupling
© Hardwareluxx.de
•
Low thickness = little heat resistance
•
Steady performance during operation
•
Application carried out by PCB
supplier, no additional processes at
assembly level
•
No scrap
