Abstract
A process for measuring the thickness of an insulating material. The process includes providing a device used to measure capacitance, and electrically connecting the capacitance measuring device to a heat sink and an electrical, heat-generating component. The thickness of the insulating material is determined by measuring the capacitance of the insulating material according to tile formula: B=∈r∈A/C, where B is the thickness of the insulating material, C is tile capacitance, A is the area of tile heat generating component, ∈is the permittivity of free space and ∈is the relative dielectric constant of the insulating material.
