Thermal design and simulation of Codec
Codec or software that supports video and audio compression (CO) and decompression (DEC). Codec technology can effectively reduce the space occupied by digital storage. In computer system, using hardware to complete codec can save CPU resources and improve the operation efficiency of the system.
The analysis of the system found several high power components would overheat without increased heat dissipation.Airflow was bypassing a critical area of the system, causing thermal problems for several components. Components downstream in the airflow path were seeing preheated air and low air velocities.
The critical components and product zones were then identified from the model.A customized baffle was designed for the cooling air intake to minimize air bypass and direct the airflow over the thermally critical components.Optimized heat sinks were designed for the thermally critical components to reduce their junction temperatures to an acceptable level.
This solution optimized air flow through the system to maximize heat dissipation of critical components, giving the customer higher system reliability. Besides, The cooling solution gave the customer new design options for system upgrades and to increase performance in the next product generation.

Thermal Design is more and more important in many industries,with a good thermal thermal product. Customers can own longer service lifecycle of the device and cost effective for savings.
