At Embedded World 2025, Congatec unveiled an acetone-based heat pipe cooling solution explicitly engineered for sub-zero operating environments. The system addresses thermal management challenges in extreme cold conditions where traditional cooling mechanisms risk freezing and component damage. Yes, even at sub-zero environments the CPU still needs a dissipation medium as its heat density is still a problem. Operating reliably at temperatures as low as -40°C, the technology utilizes acetone's -95°C freezing point to maintain thermal transfer functionality in arctic environments. The solution resolves a fundamental limitation of water-based systems, which become inoperable at their 0°C freezing threshold. Despite water's superior latent heat of vaporization (2,260 J/g), its physical properties render it unsuitable for extreme cold applications.

Acetone's thermal properties prevent ice formation and reduce condensation risks, creating a stable heat transfer mechanism for polar research, high-altitude infrastructure, cold storage, and industrial automation in harsh climates. Imagine an edge server operating in the North Pole, needing to collect and process data locally before getting it to the research/scientist team. The solution integrates directly with Congatec's Computer-on-Module (COM) portfolio, including COMe, COM-HPC, and COM-HPC mini designs, eliminating the need for custom cooling system development. An optional heat pipe adapter will be available for specialized implementations. The company clarified that acetone-based cooling is purpose-built exclusively for extreme cold environments rather than general applications, as water remains superior for conventional temperature ranges due to its greater heat dissipation capacity, lower cost, and widespread availability.

Intel representatives have placed a Panther Lake demonstration sample unit on an actual pedestal; as reported by PC Games Hardware (PCGH). German press outlets and other visitors were greeted by Team Blue's dedicated showcase plinth at this week's Embedded World 2025 expo/trade fair. The Nuremberg-based event is advertised as a "world-leading conference presenting state-of-the art technology and forward-looking research." Attendees and industry watchdogs reckon that the prominently displayed demo piece is an example of Intel's Panther Lake-H (PTL-H) mobile-oriented chip design. Last October, Pat Gelsinger (now ex-CEO) unveiled a physical PTL-H sample on-stage during his special guest appearance at Lenovo Tech World 2024. During a CES 2025 keynote presentation, Michelle Johnston Holthaus (Intel's interim co-boss) confirmed a 2025 launch window, while holding up another (or the same) Panther Lake chip.

Recent industry insider whispers have suggested that the Intel Foundry is encountering problems with their 18A node process; thus causing a shift in Panther Lake's release schedule. One prominent leaker claims that Team Blue's opening salvo of PTL-H products will roll out in 2026, but rumors were dismissed by an official source (last week). John Pitzer—Corporate Vice President of Investor Relations at Intel—insisted on multiple occasions, during a fireside chat, that his team's Core Ultra 300 series (aka Panther Lake-H) is on track for launch within the second half of 2025. Intel's Embedded World 2025 booth does not feature any technical rundowns relating to the showcased next-gen offering; their minimalist plinth is simply adorned with blue text spelling out: "Panther Lake." NDA-busting details have emerged online, courtesy of insider leaks—the top-most PTL-H SKU could appear with a 4P+8E+4LP+12Xe3 configuration.
