canadian electronics manufacturer, filtran is using coolitpcb to design ruggedized power supplies for a major military telecom application in which ambient temperature pushes against the upper design limit of the components. becuase little margin is available, accurate thermal analysis is crucial.

filtran first heard of coolitpcb from another manufacturer during its search for an effective, low-cost thermal analysis software.

"initially, i was very skeptical," notes the designer, "but you can download coolitpcb and try� it out, with no strings attached. in almost no time, i was off and sailing. the software delivers a full blown cfd analysis and the price is fantastic."

coolitpcb was developed for electical engineers and pcb designers who want to do their own thermal analysis.� the software"s intelligent user interface steers the user through the solution process; no training is required.

filtran was impressed with coolitpcb's ability to easily model encapsulated components. with a competing product, the encapsulant and component would have to be modeled separately and then merged, a difficult job at best.

in the future, filtran anticipates applying coolitpcb analyses for a range of avionic and military electronic devices.�
