Safety Under High Voltage: Analyzing Non-Linear Dielectric Strength and Breakdown in Thermal Gap Pads In high-voltage electronic systems such as EV inverters and solar combiners, a thermal pad must serve as a reliable “electrical wall.” However, engineers often fall into the trap of assuming a linear relationship between dielectric strength and material thickness. This misunderstanding […]
