Strain measurement of power module package resin.

アイテス

We would like to present the results of strain measurements conducted by attaching strain gauges and thermometers to the surfaces of power modules, both in the mounted state on a circuit board and in the unmounted state. In the mounted module, a slight delay in temperature change was observed, and correspondingly, the change in strain also appeared to be delayed. This is believed to be due to the slower transfer of heat to the module when it is mounted. At Aites, we conduct temperature cycle tests and temperature-humidity cycle tests, during which we can simultaneously measure the strain occurring in the mounted components. Please feel free to consult with us.
