Solutions,
not just materials.

Unlike conventional TIM suppliers, we don’t kick-off a customer engagement sending data sheets and material samples. Our method arrives at better solutions faster—and with lower total cost of ownership.

The Carbice Method

While each customer engagement is unique, the underlying principle is simple: we collaborate with you to determine which solution optimizes your product and support your team every step of the way.

1

1-2 Weeks
We ask questions about your application, understand its thermal management design, and determine what’s needed.

2

1-3 Weeks
We look at our product portfolio and customization options and narrow down our recommendations, running sophisticated Carbice® SIM models.

3

8 Weeks
First we manufacture a small batch of Carbice Pads. Then, using our lab or yours, we test that material. That material usually meets customer requirements thanks to our proven modeling.

4 Weeks
We manufacture Carbice Pads according to your specs, cut the sheets based on your designs, and deliver easy-to-mount material.

Carbice achieves the lowest total cost of ownership among TIMs.

With your final assembly matched to the right Carbice material, you’re free to order and re-order as needed, allowing for the lowest total cost of ownership among TIM solutions. We make that a reality in four ways:
Performance
Keeping your system cooler can minimize your cooling components. Our high-strength, chemically inert material can further reduce your BOM.
Reliability
Carbice Pad doesn’t pump out, dry out, or allow stress concentrations. Rather, it maintains, and may actually improve, performance over time and cycles.
Manufacturability
We deliver pre-cut sheets with bolt holes, cut-outs, tacks, etc. easily set-up for line assembly. Multiple adhesive options allow for clean re-work and re-use without thermal penalty.
Consistency
No need to run multiple expensive quals: Model performance accurately with our proven Carbice SIM simulation software and use Carbice Lab’s calibrated equipment for your qual needs.

When you get your
thermals right:
Performance improves

Lowering the GPU temp by 1°C gave one company a 5-10% boost in chip performance.

1°C improvement at the thermal interface of a SAR satellite enabled a significant improvement in resolution.

When you get your
thermals right:
Reliability increases

The >89ºC temperature of this company’s GPU cut the product life by 20-25%.

Rapid degredation of liquid thermal interfaces led to a 6-9ºC chip temperature increase.

WHAT WILL INTERFACE DEGREDATION DO TO YOUR PRODUCT?

When you get your
thermals right:
Cost of ownership drops

By eliminating labor associated with their liquid TIM (re-work, manufacturing, etc.), one company saved over $500/in².

Reducing thermal interface rework alone saved one company over $25M/yr.
