Heat Analysis – Hand Calculations • Conduction caused by air: • Section of chip 0.1” x 0.1” • A=6.45*10-6 m2 • Q= -KA (dT/dx) • QTotal=1.6W • QPart =1.6W/210 = 0.00762W • K= (about) 0.0257 Wm-1K-1 • dT/dx = Q/(-KA) • dT/dx = 0.00762/(0.0257*6.45*10-6) = 45969 degC/m =649 degF/in =64.9 degF/0.1in Not conclusive, but a good representation that air acts as an insulator Air Chip
Heat – Experimental Results RFID Reader connected to power in case until it reaches steady state Antenna run on full power for 20 minutes Chip temperature reached about 128 deg F Ambient inside case temp reached about 116 deg F
Heat – Analytical Analysis Case thermal conductivity = 0.2 Wm-1K-1 Outside case temp set to 20 deg F Top of chip set to 130 deg F Bottom of chip insulated
