The Heat Flux Controller™ is a high heat flux chip simulator capable of measuring and controlling the amount of heat in a resistive element. The HFC-100 comes with a chip simulator capable of dissipating 1k /cm2. The design of the heater block insures minimal heat loss to the ambient, hence a more accurate thermal resistance determination of either heat sinks or cold plates.
This system features ATS proprietary fluxSTAGE™, a LabView™ application, which automates the use of the system and allows the user to choose multiple heat loads at a specific dwell time. The program calculates the thermal resistance of the cold plate for desired cooling of the die and measures the simulated junctions temperature.
