We use many TO-220 and TO-247 packages mounted to heatsinks.  Some of
these applications require the use of thermal grease.  The age old
question is how much grease is enough?  This is a political football
that is constantly tossed around.  Does anyone know of a manufacturer's
specification or some organization's standard that clearly defines how
much thermal grease is the correct amount?

Thanks,
