Proven by the numbers deducted from the same area comparison in multiple hot spots, the WAFER-9371A is thermally superior and more apt for embedded systems.
Fact 4
IEI WAFER-9371A
A-Brand 9371
A new heatsink tops three major heat-emitting chips and effectively dissipates heat. Helped by a new layout, once again the WAFER-9371A is proved to be a cooler choice.
Cool and Quiet
All New Heat-Sink design
Good aerodynamics
The IEI Heatsink was designed in a way that air can easily and quickly float through the cooler, and reach all cooling fins. Especially it having a very large amount of fine fins.
Perfect flatness of the contact area by IEI new close flatness technology !!!
The part of the heatsink that is in contact with the heat source must be perfectly flat. A flat contact area allows you to use a thinner layer of thermal compound, which will reduce the thermal resistance between heatsink and heat source.
Good mounting method
For good thermal transfer, the pressure between heatsink and heat source must be high. IEI Heatsink clips was designed to provide a strong pressure, while still being reasonably easy to install.
Good thermal transfer within the heatsink
Large cooling fins are pointless if the heat can't reach them, so the IEI heatsink was designed to allow good thermal transfer from the heat source to the fins.
Complete and Easy LCD Support
One 36 bit TFT, 18-bit or 24-bit LCD panel, with up to 1024 x 768 resolution supported
2 channel LVDS interface supported
Diskless Booting
IEI BIOS PXE feature supports Boot-on-LAN with ATX power supply
PXE: Pre-Boot Execution Environment
PXE is an open industry standard developed by a number of software and hardware vendors. IEI BIOS PXE Feature allows a workstation to boot from a server on a network prior to booting the operating system on the local hard drive. In order to boot on LAN, it requires setting up the PXE server, too.
RoHS Compliance
IEI is committed to compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including the European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) in electrical and electronic products. IEI's goal is to exceed compliance obligations by meeting the requirements of the RoHS Directive on a worldwide basis.
