Abstract
In power electronics, more efficient removal of heat from the junction of power devices leads to a higher power rating per die, which in turn leads to fewer die and reduced system volume. Since temperature is a main driver in expected failure modes an increase in cooling capability can also enhance margins of the device reliability.
