Thermographic Microscopy
ImageIR® 8300 – precise, reliable and efficient
At the same time that the performance of electronic components is being driven
ever higher the demand for thermal management at ever smaller scales is alsooccurring. The Fraunhofer Institute for Silicon Technology (ISIT), as a development
partner, supports companies in meeting these growing needs in an optimal fashion.
As a result, the latest scientific developments can be implemented in new productsvery quickly, sus-taining the rapid rate of innovation required by the industry. Inorder to deal with this challenge, the ISIT, as well as other Fraunhofer Institutes, hasa range of excellent technology. This technology enables its specialists to fulfill theirtasks in the very best way.

InfraTec-Solution:
ImageIR® 8300

Analysing electronic components the ISIT has to detect
smallest possible temperature differences. It does so by using
the thermal camera ImageIR® 8300 from InfraTec which can
precisely measure temperature differences of 20 mK securely identifying any even justemerging thermal issue. Thus, development failures can be avoided at an early stage. By using
a detec-tor with (640 x 512) IR pixels at a 15 µm pitch and a high performance 3x microscopic
lens a geometric reso-lution of only 5 µm can be achieved. At the same time, a field of view of(3.2 x 2.6) mm2 is displayed which is suitable for many microelectronic applications. Additional,
easily interchangeable lenses with a range of focal lengths enable the ISIT to further exploit theflexibility of their infrared camera across a wide variety of applications.

Another benefit for the ISIT derives from the precision calibration of the ImageIR® 8300 camera. The use of a set of
additional side calibration curves compensates for drift and ensures a maximum measurement accuracy even underfluctuating measurement conditions. As with all thermographic testings of electronic components and circuits,
measurements are influenced by the differing emissivity of the individual components. To overcome this situation,
InfraTec offers an automated pixel wise emissivity correction routine directly in its control and analysis software
IRBIS® 3. Using these tools precise statements can be made about temperature distributions and developments overtime. With the time component of the heating playing an increasingly important role in the ever decreasing sizes ofcomponents, the ISIT is able to take advantage of the multi-kHz frame rates possible with the ImageIR® 8300.
