What Is The Electronic Heat Sink Used For?

An electronic heat sink is a heat exchanger and is the most common method of cooling electronic equipment. The main function is to absorb the heat of high-temperature objects and then spread it to other places to keep them away from high-temperature objects. The temperature of high-temperature objects is stable. The electronic heat sink transfers the heat generated by the electronic or mechanical equipment to the fluid medium (air or liquid coolant), and then dissipates it from the equipment, thereby adjusting the temperature of the equipment.

The electronic heat sink is used to absorb the heat generated by the various chips inside the electronic integrated circuit, and then dissipate it to the chassis or outside the chassis to ensure that the temperature of the electronic equipment is always in a normal state, and it is important to prevent the electronic equipment from malfunctioning or even damaged due to poor heat dissipation. Components. Most electronic heat sinks absorb heat by contacting the surface of the heating component and then transfer the heat to a remote place through various methods, such as the air in the case, and then the case transfers the hot air to the outside of the case to complete the heat dissipation of the computer.

There are many types of the electronic copper heat sink, such as: CPU, graphics card, motherboard chipset, hard disk, chassis, power supply and even optical drive and memory will need an aluminum heat sink fins, these different radiators cannot be mixed, and the most frequently contacted is the CPU aluminum heat sink. According to the way of removing heat from the radiator, the radiator can be divided into active heat dissipation and passive heat dissipation. The air-cooled radiator is common in the former, and the heat sink is common in the latter. Further subdivide the heat dissipation method, which can be divided into air cooling, heat pipe, liquid cooling, semiconductor refrigeration, compressor refrigeration, etc. It usually refers to the CPU electronic heat sink Boxed and generally come with a radiator, but bulk CPU and black The box is generally not available, and it needs to be purchased separately. The cpu must have a suitable electronic heat sink to ensure normal operation.
