OVERVIEW:
A gating item in the development of higher performance electronic systems is thermal management of integrated circuit (IC) power dissipation. As a basis for most thermal management solutions, knowledge of the IC thermal performance is essential. This short course is designed for device, packaging and system design professionals who want an introduction to the "art" of integrated circuit thermal measurements. In addition to complete test method descriptions, the rationale leading to the need for the standards and the use of the thermal data produced by the standards will be covered. Details of junction temperature measurements will be covered and reference sources will be provided.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
Packaging engineers, system engineers, thermal and mechanical engineers, PCB layout engineers, field support personnel, marketing personnel, design, process, failure analysis, and reliability engineers.

TOPICS:

Thermal Management Challenges Current Status & Road Map Objectives Thermal Resistance Definition Types Equivalent Circuit Standard Reference Environments Definitions Mounting Surface Environments

Thermal Test Methods Junction Temperature Measurement Calibration Dynamic Test (Application Die) Static Test (Test Die) Thermal Data Application Detailed Thermal Model Compact Thermal Model 2-Resistor Model Applying Standards Data

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Bernie Siegal, founder and president of Thermal Engineering Associates, Inc. (TEA), has been actively involved in semiconductor thermal measurements for over 35 years. He has been the principal author of several Mil Std., SEMI and JEDEC standards and is currently an active participant of the EIA JEDEC JC15.1 subcommittee dealing with IC package thermal issues. He has developed thermal test systems for most commercially available semiconductor devices. He has authored over 40 technical articles, conducted numerous seminars and holds patents in various technical fields. Bernie is the founder of SEMI-THERM and is past chair of the Santa Clara Valley chapter of IEEE CPMT.
