Bergquist microTIM mTIM 1000 series micro-thermal interface coating portfolio has a new formulation to reduce functional heat experienced by optical transceivers, with the latest development addressing the thermal challenges of 400, 600 and 800 Gb pluggable optical modules (POMs).

Withstands as many as 500 pulls and insertions without performance degradation and reduces operational temperatures per POM by as much as 0.18°C/W. Accommodates use of nickel-coated copper heat sinks often employed with higher-bandwidth modules. Can be coated on transceivers. 300°C temperature spike for a 30-minute duration had no adverse effect on coating performance.
