Pyrolytic Graphite Sheet, or PGS, is an ultra-thin, lightweight, graphite polymer film with a thermal conductivity high enough to release and diffuse the heat generated by heat sources such as processors, power amplifiers and batteries. With a thermal conductivity up to five times greater than copper, PGS is extremely pliable and can be applied to heat-source shapes in high-density mounting situations.

• Thermal conductivity: 700 to 1950 W/(m-K)
• High stability, no deterioration with age
• Simultaneous solution for thermal and electromagnetic wave problems
• Thin, flexible, and easy to cut or trim
• Thickness options and semi-sealing material available

• IC tester, probe card, board tester
• Network switches, modems, multiplexers
• Electric and gas meters
• Cameras, fire alarms, smoke/heat detectors

Detector Switches are used to “detect” internal mechanical movements and convert human manual operations, such as the opening of a door , to electronic signals. Panasonic Detector Switches use a mechanical sliding spring design to ensure consistent signal output. They also feature long travel, thin profile, compact size, light weight, highly flexible actuation angles and surface mount or J-bent terminal mounting options. In some applications, Detector Switches are used to replace Encoders as a lower cost solution.

• Industry’s smallest and thinnest
• Normal-close or normal-open
• Positioning boss
• Multiple actuation methods

• Audio/Visual
• Industrial
• Handheld devices
• General (office, security, etc.)
