Online Condition Monitoring Methodology for Power Electronics Package Reliability Assessment

This article introduces an online condition monitoring strategy that utilizes a transient heat pulse to detect package thermal performance degradation. The metric employed is the temperature-dependent transient thermal impedance "Zth(t, Tamb)."The proposed methodology offers quantitative insights into package thermal performance degradation...

Multi-parameters optimization for electromigration in WLCSP solder bumps

In this study, we combined finite element method (FEM) based on Ansys and Noesis Optimus software to investigate the effect of bump structures and loading conditions on the electromigration properties of solder bumps in WLCSP. A numerical model considering current density, vacancy concentration, stress and temperature was utilized to calculate...
