Extracting maximum power from minimum space inevitably means that the electronic componentry develops higher and higher temperatures. To protect these components, heat needs to be dissipated quickly and reliably. This is where aluminum nitride ceramic Alunit® sets new standards.

With its outstanding power insulating properties and extremely high heat conductivity (~180 W/mK, or 10 times superior to aluminum oxide), Alunit® is perfect for higher-power electronic applications. Alunit® allows the assembly of compact and cost-effective com-ponents and hybrids with high integration density. Excellent mechanical strength and a low thermal coefficient of expansion permit problem-free systems integration.
