The effective demise of the military components industry has left military electronics designers with the problem of guaranteeing operation of the systems over temperature ranges from -40oC to +85oC, common in mobile applications. Acme Embedded Solutions has experience in selection of parts and test/qualification techniques that extend the use of standard commercial Plastic Encapsulated Microelectronics (PEM’s) into military applications.
Acme Embedded Solutions also performs extensive thermal assessments on a design, to ensure that cooling of high powered microprocessor and power modules is addressed with the intended application mind. Aggressive thermal treatments have been shown to be effective in ensuring reliable high temperature operation of commercial PEMs.
