EDM Workshop 33: Electronics Cooling and Interconnect Technologies for Vehicle Computers

May 18, 2021 | 2:00 pm 4:00 pm CEST

High-Performance CPU/GPU processors are required for self-driving cars to perform vision processing, object recognition and interaction with intelligent traffic systems in real-time and reliable for 15 years.

A consortium of Belgian, Dutch and German companies and research organisations with expertise along the entire automotive value chain, intends to meet the challenges to develop high performance electronic systems that can withstand the harsh vehicle conditions. This is realised through innovations in integrated circuit design, manufacturing and packaging to create automotive grade solutions in three key areas: computation, communication and integration.

The three Flemish partners (Materialise, Interflux Electronics & imec) provides advanced and reliable liquid cooling solutions to enable the required high heat dissipation (300W). Additionally, the solderability of very large BGA processor components is improved with the introduction of low melting point soldering technology. These key innovations will be presented in this virtual workshop.
