Materials in an Electronic World

[Solid-Statist]

How did you find PF?

Google search on "thermal resistance of electronic subassemblies"

I'd like to understand more about the requirements of electronic packaging, and how those are evolving to meet the demands of ever-greater performance.

My education was in Chemical Engineering, and my professional background is in high-performance polymers for electrical/electronic insulation and thermo-compression lamination. Always having been a bit befuddled by the nuances of electricity, I try to reduce system dynamics to simple metrics ... like breakdown voltage, delta-T and laminar sheer strength (before and after severe thermal shocks!).

Welcome to PF! It's good to have you here.

You should find some interesting threads in our ME, EE, Materials Engineering and Thermodynamics forums. Enjoy!

Well, it's certain nice to have found this forum!

From puttering around the website, I see that there's plenty of expertise in lots of technical fields, even some where I already have some experience.

For instance, there's discussion about high-energy physics and particle accelerators ... over the years, I've supplied insulation systems for superconducting magnets for DOE and CERN projects. So, if any of you out there are planning on building an accelerator...
