Building Superior Embedded Systems
Any material that is inserted between two components in order to enhance the thermal coupling between them. A common use is heat dissipation, in which the TIM is inserted between a heat-producing device (e.g. an integrated circuit) and a heat-dissipating device (e.g. a heat sink).
“
Hardware: large metal molds used for mass-producing injection molded plastic or stamped metal parts
Software: programs that support development, such as debuggers, build tools, analyzers, linters”

“Pressure-sensitive adhesive is a type of non reactive adhesive which forms a bond when pressure is applied to bond the adhesive with the adhered. No solvent, water, or heat is needed to activate the adhesive.”
“Optically-based 2D and 3D measurement systems. These systems include automated vision systems, microscopes, optical comparators, and structured light surface scanners.”
“Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies engineering physics, engineering mathematics, and materials science principles to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems”
