When space inside an enclosure is limited and voltage across the thermal interface is moderate, the thinnest HV grade often makes the most sense. Parker Chomerics CHO-THERM HV1110 is a blue thermal insulator that delivers high-voltage isolation in a tight 0.010-inch profile. It is the softest and most thermally efficient grade in the CHO-THERM HV series, with a thermal impedance of only 0.373 degrees C-inch squared per watt. At NEDC, we supply HV1110 to customers who need reliable dielectric protection without sacrificing thin-gap thermal performance.

Why HV1110?

HV1110 offers the lowest thermal impedance in the HV series despite its thin profile. Its polyimide carrier keeps it soft and compliant, making it easy to handle and install. At only 30 Shore 00, it will conform to moderate surface irregularities, reducing interface resistance in practical assemblies. This makes it the first choice for standard transistor packages where the voltage requirement is real but not extreme.

Typical Applications

  • Standard power semiconductors and transistor packages
  • Television and display backlight inverters
  • Consumer electronics with moderate voltage separation
  • Automotive electronics with limited clearance

NEDC converts HV1110 in die-cut parts on 9 by 9 inch sheets, with or without PSA. For more thermal performance in the same thickness, step up to HV1717. For higher voltage and thickness, see HV2320.
