(Charts) Thermal Resistance is proportional to the thickness of the material through which the heat must travel. The ability to control and reduce thickness (BLT) of the thermal interface is a key factor in the component assembly process. Increases in assembly pressures are known to contribute to reductions in BLT, and subsequently, reduced thermal resistance.
