Abstract

Demands for miniaturization, whether driven by the need for portability or the need to integrate more functionality into a small form factor, is leading to higher levels of integration. Although there are many advantages of 2.5D and 3D packaging structures, there are also many challenges arising for their testing and analysis. These advanced performance-driven designs create further challenges for packaging, testing, and thermal management. One of the challenges is the feature size and operating speed of these devices which are now sub-micron, where traditional methods of thermal analysis such as infrared thermography are no longer adequate. Some failures are embedded inside 3D structures, and it is a challenge to establish their location within the structures. For advanced microwave systems such as Antennae-in-Package (AiP), beam-steering and beamforming antennas, characterization of their electromagnetic fields is a challenge due to the partial and spatial coherence of the resulting fields. This presentation will describe the above-mentioned challenges and techniques available to meet these challenges including thermal characterization of sub-micron microelectronic and photonic devices, electromagnetic field characterization of advanced microwave systems, and failure analysis of heterogeneously integrated devices.
