Abstract :
Thermal transient measurement is method for the characterisation of IC packages gaining increasing importance, The measurement of these transients requires dedicated equipment. The subsequent innovative evaluation method can be applied in other fields of measurement as well. The paper discusses the innovative hardware and software solutions of the problem
