                ( 1000.0 mil   = 1.000 inch    )
                ( 1000.0 mil   = 2.540 cm      )

                ( 1000.0 mW = 1.000 W      )
                ( 1000.0 mW = 3.413 Btu/hr )

CardTemp is an executable file (226 KB) and dynamic link library file (398 KB) that allows the user to:

• Solve for the printed wiring board (PWB) component temperatures in several housings with different cooling schemes.
• Compare two thermal solutions so that the same PWB can be used for two customers.
• Move scroll bars and click option buttons to create an interactive trade study.

How can CardTemp be used?

CardTemp can be used to:

• Make the PWB compatible with the operating environment before the high hazard rates and low reliability cause a redesign.
• Solve the thermal problem before the environmental test fails and the PWB must be redesigned.
• Manage your resources before a conflict exists between disciplines.

Who benefits from using CardTemp?

• Electrical Engineers use it as a quick solution.
• Industrial (Reliability) Engineers use it as a simplified solution.
• Mechanical (Thermal) Engineers use it as a sanity check.
