Thermal resistance measurement

Jul 28, 2003 5 Replies

I need to mesure the delta temperature between a TO220 case sunk in a box full of resin and the box's surface. What can I use and where can I get them? I want something really cheap!



Thanks!

An Infra-red thermometer, or better yet, a thermal imager.

Read the post again, dufus. He wants to look at the SURFACE of the box. Check your attitude, dufus.

Funny, but I could have swore that the OP said

I guess I just imagined that.

Wow, that's hilarious... best joke on this NG in ages. Measure the transistor temp before you pot it! Wonderful! I'll have to tell the guys about this... they'll love it.

You're an idiot.
