1. FLIR Cameras Reveal Thermal Characteristics of Microelectronic Devices 12/12/2019

   The performance of microelectronic devices will depend on a better understanding of the thermophysical properties of the various materials used in the microelectronics. At the University of Texas at Arlington, the team of Dr. Ankur Jain, who heads the Microscale Thermophysics Laboratory, studies a wide range of topics related to microscale thermal transport. The laboratory makes use of diverse modern equipment and instruments, including thermal imaging cameras from FLIR Systems.  

2. Shortwave Infrared Cameras For High-Temperature Manufacturing And R&D Processes 7/25/2019

   Shortwave infrared (SWIR) cameras are sensitive to shorter IR wavelengths between visible light and 3 µm. With the addition of temperature measurement capabilities, SWIR cameras offer a win-win for anyone concerned with thermal analysis of high temperature materials or processes.

3. Infrared Microscopy – How To Get Accurate Temperature Measurements And Find Hot Spots With Your Infrared Camera Lenses 6/28/2019

   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.

4. See The Heat: Troubleshooting PCB And Electronic Product Design With Thermal Imaging 6/28/2019

   In this webinar, FLIR's Jerry Beeney compares infrared imaging with the more traditional temperature measurement devices, utilizing real-world IR images and examples to demonstrate how infrared thermography can more easily identify hot spots and improve thermal management.
