Finding and fixing hot spots within ever-shrinking electronic systems has become more and more difficult. This webinar examines close-up and microscope lenses and how they allow infrared cameras to make accurate temperature measurements on components less than 25 µm in size and image targets as small as 3.5 µm. Side-by-side comparisons of real-world images are presented along with data from a variety of different camera and lens combinations.

Calibration is a comparison between measurements, one of a known magnitude or correctness and another measurement comparable to the first. All of Gentec-EO's electrical instruments are calibrated by certified calibration suppliers, those of which the electrical and physical properties of their laboratories meet the highest requirements for ambient temperature, relative humidity, and cleanliness.
