Keywords: thermal management in system design  thermal issues of power connectors  connector design for cooling systems  current-carrying capability of power connectors 

[Summary of tips] System designers are driving demand for power connectors that deliver higher current ratings in an equal or smaller footprint. But they also need to maximize cooling in shrinking designs packed with hot ICs and beefy power supplies. And they know that system temperatures affect the current-carrying capability of the power conne......
