The paradigm shift in thermal design in electronic devices has been instigated by the downsizing and higher power rating of the devices which has been achieved by the technological advancement in semiconductors. 
Concurrently, resistors has been transitioning, shifting from the leaded type to the SMD type, which caused a shift in the heat dissipation mechanism of resistors.
