Abstract :
Nanofocus tube technology in combination with high resolution CT are the driving forces in X-ray and the leading future technologies for the inspection of IC packages. The paper shows different results of highest resolution failure analysis performed with latest 2D and 3D nanofocus techniques like the first 180 kV nanoCT system.
