Turn up the performance, turn down the heat! GORE Thermal Insulation for 5G mmWave antennas enhances heat spreading with minimal interference to 5G mmWave signals for an enhanced user experience.
Today’s sophisticated 5G mmWave antenna modules incorporate power amplifiers that generate heat close to the edge of the device, causing hot spots on the antennas. 5G thermal management is exceedingly difficult because traditional thermal management techniques such as graphite spreaders cannot be used due to their high RF interference. With many components in such a small space, there is limited space available to utilize large air gaps to prevent surface hot spots resulting from 5G radio frequency heating.
The large 5G heat-load combined with limited thermal management options typically leads to 5G mmWave signal throttling within a minute of use. GORE Thermal Insulation for 5G mmWave antennas is designed to fit on top of 5G mmWave antenna modules to prevent surface hot spots with minimal RF interference.
GORE Thermal Insulation provides a uniquely adaptable 5G thermal solution: available in six different thicknesses, it can be provided in custom shapes or designed to fit the most commonly used Qualcomm® modules*. These parts feature insulation that blocks heat better than air, with extremely low RF signal transmission loss. GORE Thermal Insulation for 5G mmWave antennas helps maintain 5G signal duration by reducing surface temperatures, for a superior user experience.
