At 200 micrometers thick, an order of magnitude thinner than any micro-fan, YPlasma’s DBD plasma actuator is the thinnest forced-convection cooling architecture in the industry. Live on NVIDIA Jetson at Booth I0601, TaiNEX 1, June 2 to 5.
NEWARK, N.J. and TAIPEI, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — YPlasma, the only company commercializing solid-state cooling based on dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuators, today announced at COMPUTEX 2026 the integration of a DBD plasma cooling module on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano. The solution removes the rotary fan entirely and replaces it with a 200 micrometer flexible actuator, 40 to 60 times thinner than the micro-fans it replaces, that generates ionic wind through DBD plasma.
Why now. Agentic AI has shifted edge inference into continuous, 24/7 workloads. Passive heatsinks throttle, rotary fans fail, TECs burn more power than they remove. YPlasma’s DBD-based ionic wind is the only fanless cooling thin enough to fit a 6 mm Z-height envelope.
Jetson validation. Full 7 to 25 W range covered. 200 µm actuator with 87 × 60 × 2 mm plate, 16 kVpp at 50 Hz, actuator below 1 W, steady state in 10 minutes. Surface-conformal, tile-able, IP-enclosure compatible, negligible ozone.
Active demand: autonomous driving compute, telecom Agentic AI at the RAN edge, drones and robotics, high-power energy electronics for SiC/GaN converters.
“Jetson is the substrate the industry is building on. We unveiled this at COMPUTEX because the customers, partners, and supply chain are all in Taipei this week,” said David García, CEO and Co-Founder of YPlasma.
See it: Booth I0601, Hall 1, TaiNEX 1, June 2 to 5. YPlasma is a Top 15 Finalist of the InnoVEX 2026 Pitch Contest (live pitch June 4, InnoVEX Center Stage).
