Using Thermal Cameras to Solve Challenges in Microelectronics

As electronic components shrink, heat management becomes more and more of an issue. Unwanted heat in electronics can compromise the performance and shorten product life. Using Infrared Thermography in the design phase of an electronic design has been around for decades. The relationship between heat and electrical resistance makes identifying shorts and faults a straightforward exercise. Being able to visualize heat patterns across devices can validate software-generated thermal models. In many instances, Infrared thermography will naturally evolve from an R&D tool in the development stage to a quality assurance tool in the manufacturing stage. In this episode of the Thermal Review, we discuss how thermal imaging can aid in the development and manufacturing stages of microelectronics.

Infrared Thermography and Microelectronics

In this episode of the Thermal Review, we discuss the latest megatrends impacting the development of microelectronics and how thermal imaging can aid in the development, manufacture, and performance of microelectronics.

How Infrared Thermography is Impacting the Li-Ion Battery Lifecycle

We have our first official guest, Jerry Beeney, Director of Global Business Development at Teledyne FLIR. We discuss how infrared thermography is used to optimize Li-Ion battery development, manufacturing, storage, usage, recycling, and disposal.

Teasing out the Defects with Active Thermography

It is estimated that the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter program will cost over $1.7 trillion to buy, operate and sustain. That makes it the United States, Department of Defense, most expensive weapons system program ever! As such, getting the most return out of each F-35 fighter for the DOD is of the highest priority. From the development, manufacturing, and sustaining phases, there is a concerted focus on the F-35 lifetime and doing whatever possible to extend it. Active infrared thermography is one method being used to detect defects at the smallest level. Beyond jet fighters, automobile and component manufacturers, electronics and semiconductor developers, aerospace companies, and battery developers are just a few of the industries that are using active thermography NDT technologies and techniques to optimize product performance. In this episode of the Thermal Review, we explain the difference between passive and active thermography and introduce the different techniques for performing active thermography non-destructive testing.

Cloud Based Monitoring & Industrial Condition Monitoring

In this episode of the Thermal Review, we discuss how cloud-based monitoring is changing condition-based maintenance in an industrial setting.

Preventing Fires in Industrial Settings With Thermal Imaging

In this episode of The Thermal Review, we discuss how combining the industrial internet of things (IIoT) with thermal imaging is changing the way companies monitor and prevent fires in industrial settings.

How IoT is Changing Remote Monitoring

We're excited to share with you our first episode of The Thermal Review, where we discuss how the industrial internet of things (IoT) is changing remote monitoring.
