Peltier Cooler

» Thermoelectric Cooling: using electrical energy, thermal energy is pumped, which results in a temperature difference with our best devices of more than 60 degrees. With our » micro Peltier coolers temperatures can be switched in a few milliseconds. Micropelt’s 12 mm² Peltier coolers pump 6 Watt.

Thermogenerator

» Energy Harvesting: the conversion of temperature differences into electrical energy. Using our thin film process we develop » thermogenerators with nearly a hundred leg pairs per mm². Those viable self-sustained energy sources harvest thermal energy that’s otherwise lost to the environment. 20 degrees over ambient can provide more than 2 V and 4 mW …
