Fanless System with Reliable Thermal Design
The TANK-XM811's thermal design is optimized for better heat conduction using a pin-fin heatsink concept. This enhances two dimensional heat conduction and reduces flow impedance for better heat dissipation in this fan-less system. The overall weight and dimensions are thus reduced, significantly enhancing system reliability in vibration-sensitive applications, such as AGV. Moreover, this innovative thermal design allows the TANK-XM811 to maximize superior performance than those with traditional heatsink consisting of parallel fins.
