Thermal ageing: the most common cause of electronics failures

Heat is the enemy of all electronics. Thermal loads lead to a loss of performance and ultimately to failures - whether in inverters or amplifiers, in vehicle electronics or household appliances.

In our workshop, you will learn how to use simulation and measurement to thermally characterize your electronics and identify and eliminate weak points in the design. Discover tried-and-tested methods with which you can noticeably improve the service life and reliability of your products.

Developing durable electronics:
Methods, tools and expertise for your practice

The workshop is aimed at experts and decision-makers who deal with the service life and thermal characterization of electronic components. You can look forward to presentations and technical contributions from Siemens Industry Software, Elinter and Novicos:

• Simulation of heat generation and propagation, including excitation and all components involved in heat dissipation

• Measurement of thermal impedance as input for the simulation

• Power cycling for safeguarding service life tests of the prototypes

• Quality assurance through testing at the end of production

• Vibration resistance: Ensure load capacity under real operating conditions
