Flotherm Version 7 electronics thermal analysis software features a response surface optimization capability. Fits a 3D surface to the entire design space. Automatically creates and runs the required number of simulations to explore the entire design space. Generates a "response surface" showing the value of the design goals for all the combinations of variables run. Said to have better design insight and intuition; rapid determination of which design parameters are crucial, and instant assessment of the effects of manufacturing variations. Applications include heat sink design; PCB component placement; fan/blower selection and the location of vents. Has the ability to embed arbitrary conductive thermal resistor networks within the overall fluid dynamics simulation. Includes a SmartPart that models heat pipes accurately and the ability to import 2D DXF files and extrude them directly into 3D shapes.

Model 40366 surface-mount accelerometer is said to have capabilities ideal for implantable medical device applications. Is a variable capacitance, silicon MEMS device designed to meet the requirements for use in implantable devices. Hermetically sealed with a shear bond strength of 1 kg; delivers repeatability of less than 0.035 pF in an SMT footprint of 2.05 x 2.90 mm configured as a three-terminal half-bridge. Features include frequency response of 40 Hz, linearity of less than 1%, transverse sensitivity of less than 1%, a +/-2g full scale for measurement of fractional-g accelerations in the presence of earth’s gravity, and over-range stops with provisions to eliminate electrostatic sticking when the accelerometer is over-ranged.
