When factoring cumulative heat contribution from transistors, transformers, capacitors, diodes, PC boards and enclosures, it is essential that development of cooling techniques and the management framework consider the entire system. Following our assessment of WayCool's novel approach to thermal cooling and management, it became evident to our engineers that this was highly differentiated and cost effective technology capable of efficiently offloading heat generated in our power supply systems without costly re-engineering. We are very excited about the possibilities WayCool presents for CUI to advance its leadership in the power supply industry and look forward to leveraging WayCool to co-develop revolutionary new power supply solutions with OnScreen."
