How do I choose the right TEC controller output power?

There are several factors that relate to TEC output power.

  1. Desired temperature range.
  2. Size of the thermal platform.
  3. Power of the DUT.
  4. Speed of thermal response.

Applications that require wider temperature control range, larger size DUTs, higher power devices, and/or fast thermal responses require higher TEC output power. However, the price of the TEC controllers (150W and 300W) is not proportional to the output power. Our staff can help evaluate which one is the best fit for your requirements.
