Unexpected overheating in electronic systems often appears in places engineers least expect, making reliable design a real challenge. In this episode, we explore why thermal problems don't always follow theory and why standard calculations sometimes miss the true source of heat build-up. You'll learn about the main factors that create hidden thermal resistance, such as air gaps, imperfect interfaces, and material thickness. We explain why the "highest conductivity" materials aren't automatically the best solution and how practical strategies like gap fillers, spreaders, and thermally conductive adhesives can prevent and solve thermal failures. Our experts share real-world design tips to manage hotspots, improve reliability, and select the right thermal interface materials for your specific application.

In this episode of the Würth Elektronik Watts Up Podcast, we focus on the fundamentals of transient suppression and EMI filtering for different electronic interfaces. As electronic devices become more interconnected, controlling voltage spikes and interference is increasingly important. We discuss filter designs for mains power, asymmetrical, and symmetrical signal interfaces, explaining how to select and size components such as ferrites, capacitors, varistors, and TVS diodes. You'll hear calculation examples and learn how to apply these solutions to scenarios like USB and power line protection. Topics include: - Why transient suppression is critical for modern circuits - How to approach filter design for different interface types - Component selection tips and calculation steps - Application examples and common pitfalls For more details, download the full application note: https://www.we-online.com/components/media/o869938v410%20SN024a_EN.pdf To view the datasheets or order samples, visit Würth Elektronik online or visit the MyWE customer portal.
