SCTB Nord, recently aquired by Ferrotec, developed the TMC series modules to cope with the ever increasing demands of cycling applications such as DNA amplification and microprocessor burn in.

TMC-series of modules (Thermoelectric Module for Cyclers) has been developed for special applications connected with cycling operations of modules in burn-in test equipment (CPUs quality control), DNA-amplificators and other thermocyclers. TMC-series is the sequel to M-series and has technological features that provide additional advances in cycling reliability.

The data for cycling reliability of this module type is presented in the Table bellow.

Type of cycles
Test -20/+120
Test +40/+90 °C nonsymmetric cycle
Test +40/+90 °C symmetric cycle
TMC-series modules, number of cycles
20-30 x 10³
400-600 x 10³
1500-2000 x 10³
       

Note: The values in the table are numbers of cycles before failure. The module failure criteria -5% change in resistance.
