In summary, T-Global introduced some of the key issues facing designers of set-top boxes. These include both EMI and thermal issues, and successfully dealing with these is key in reducing the product size, extending lifetime, and increasing functionality. T-Global has developed FAM, which is a thermally conductive, flexible absorbent material especially for these applications. This material is available in a number of different formats and offers the engineer and designer a low cost of ownership approach to the combined problems of EMI and thermal management. For more demanding applications or product or application-specific device, please contact T-Global directly where T-Global's engineers will be able to offer users design guidelines and assistance.
