Impact of Thermal Characterization on Design Optimization

Introduction As semiconductors continue to improve, thermal management becomes increasingly critical. Current semiconductor devices are certainly stronger, smaller, and higher in power densities than previously created devices. However, semiconductor performance deteriorates in the presence of excessive heat, with overall inefficiencies followed by complete failures or device breakdown. The data to predict these failures comes from...
