Lock-in thermal analysis method

The lock-in thermal analysis method detects slight temperature increases in the current path.

- The IR-OBIRCH function is also included, allowing for further narrowing down of the fault location after identifying the heat generation area through IR-OBIRCH measurement. - By detecting infrared, it is possible to non-destructively identify fault locations without the need for opening the package through etching or removing electrodes. - By using lock-in signals, it is possible to identify heat generation areas with high S/N, enabling cross-sectional analysis such as Slice & View.

basic information

It is a semiconductor failure analysis device that detects heat generated inside the device and identifies the failure location. By overlaying the heat generation images detected by a high-sensitivity infrared detector with high-resolution pattern images obtained from an IR confocal laser microscope, it quickly identifies the failure location with high sensitivity and high positional accuracy.
