Active Cool Brings Custom Components to Smart Thermo-Electric Cooling Solution.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers CeBIT 2003 ASHKELON, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 4, 2003 Marlow Industries and Melcor Corporation Signed as Exclusive Providers of Thermo-Electric Components for the AC4G Cooling System cooling system: see air conditioning; internal-combustion engine; refrigeration. cooling system Apparatus used to keep the temperature of a structure or device from exceeding limits imposed by needs of safety and efficiency. Active Cool, the pioneer in quiet thermo-electric cooling for PC processors, today announced that its flagship AC4G product will feature custom-built thermo-electric cooling (TEC) components from the two leading thermo-electric components manufacturers in the Western Hemisphere Western Hemisphere Part of Earth comprising North and South America and the surrounding waters. Longitudes 20° W and 160° E are often considered its boundaries. . Active Cool selected Marlow Industries and Melcor Corporation to be the exclusive providers of components for the world's first smart TEC system designed to cool Intel Pentium 4 and AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, www.amd.com) A major manufacturer of semiconductor devices including x86-compatible CPUs, embedded processors, flash memories, programmable logic devices and networking chips. Athlon XP A family of Pentium-compatible CPU chips from AMD introduced in 2001. Departing from the traditional MHz designation, Athlon XP chips use model numbers that combine clock speed and architectural features into a numerical rating. processors. "After rigorous test and evaluation of TEC components from manufacturers worldwide, we determined that the quality, performance, manufacturing repeatability and scalability that Marlow and Melcor's components possess are unmatched," said Ronen Meir, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Active Cool. "The reliability of the newly integrated components are best-suited to AC4G's engineering and performance standards and will play a key role in alleviating the exacerbating heat and resulting computer noise that are generated in CPUs today." Processor heat is a critical issue as processor speeds and chip density have increased sharply over the past few years, leading to excessive computer noise. Active Cool's patent-pending microprocessor-controlled thermo-electric system - AC4G - provides both powerful cooling while enabling a dramatic reduction in computer fan noise. "Marlow Industries believes that Active Cool's technology is an exciting development that brings together thermo-electrics and a dynamic software-driven temperature control system," said Tim Jackson, Managing Director of Marlow Industries. "We believe the design and implementation is extremely innovative and takes CPU CPU in full central processing unit Principal component of a digital computer, composed of a control unit, an instruction-decoding unit, and an arithmetic-logic unit. cooling to a new level of sophistication so·phis·ti·cate v. so·phis·ti·cat·ed, so·phis·ti·cat·ing, so·phis·ti·cates v.tr. 1. To cause to become less natural, especially to make less naive and more worldly. 2. ." Marlow and Melcor are the two largest providers of quality thermo-electric cooling technologies in the Western Hemisphere. Their combined market share for the thermo-electric components industry exceeds 90 percent. "Melcor Corporation is extremely excited to be working with Active Cool to address the emerging application of thermo-electric cooling to CPU chips," said Sal Giordano III, CEO of Melcor Corporation. AC4G will be available for commercial sale in late February 2003. Active Cool will feature a live demonstration of the AC4G product at the CEBIT 2003 trade show in Hannover, Germany, March 12-17, 2003. About Active Cool Founded in January 2000 and headquartered in Ashkelon, Israel, Active Cool is focused on addressing the industry's growing CPU heat crisis and noise concerns. Active Cool's flagship product A primary product of a company, which is typically why the company was founded and/or what made it well known. For example, MS-DOS, Windows and the Microsoft Office suite have been flagship products of Microsoft. CorelDRAW is a flagship product of Corel Corporation. , the AC4G, is the world's first high-powered thermo-electric CPU cooling system. The AC4G product, designed for global PC OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and and white box manufacturers, has the power to cool the most advanced Intel Pentium 4 processors and the new AMD K8 processors.
