Abstract

THERMINIC Workshops are a series of events to discuss the essential thermal questions of microelectronic microstructures and electronic parts in general&#046; These questions are becoming more and more crucial with the increasing element density of deep submicron downscaling of integrated circuits necessitating thermal simulation, monitoring and cooling&#046; Thermal management is expected to become an increasingly dominating factor of a system&#8242;s cost&#046; The high element density of MCMs, the growing power dissipated in a package, etc&#046;&#046;&#046;, and the mobile parts of microsystems raise new thermal problems to be solved in the near future necessitating the regular discussion of the experts in these fields&#046; Finally, there is an increasing need for accurate assessment of the boundary conditions used in the analysis of electronic parts, which requires a concurrent solution of the thermal behaviour of the whole system&#046; <b>Keywords:</b> Thermal and Temperature Sensors,<br>Thermal Simulation,<br>Electro&#8211;thermal Simulation,<br>Thermal Modelling and Investigation of Packages,<br>Reliability Issues,<br>High Temperature Electronics,<br>Heat Transfer Education,<br>Flow Visualisation Techniques,<br>Turbulence Modelling in Complex Geometrics,<br>Thermal Characterization,<br>Measurement of Thermal Properties,<br>Acquisition and Analysis of Thermal data,<br>Temperature Mapping,<br>Novel and Advanced Cooling Techniques,<br>Thermal Performance of Interconnects,<br>Heat Transfer Enhancement,<br>Validation of Thermal Software,<br>Coupled (Thermo&#8211;mechanical, Thermo&#8211; optical, etc&#046;) Effects
