Course Description

Power electronics packaging is advancing to meet rising demand in sectors like consumer electronics, electric transportation, data centers, and renewable energy. This course covers fundamental packaging concepts, cross-disciplinary principles, and finite element analysis (FEA) simulation.

Participants will learn theory and the latest research on electrical, thermal, materials, and reliability challenges, gaining insights into trade-offs and cutting-edge solutions. Topics covered include: die attach, interconnects, electrical and thermal characterization, encapsulation and high-voltage characterization, and thermal and power cycling.

Engineers will be prepared to design effective packages for modern power electronics systems through hands-on experiments conducted in CPES’ world-class Packaging Laboratory. Participants will use ANSYS Electronics Desktop and ANSYS Workbench as well as the following instruments:

• Wire Bonder • Solder Reflow • Programmable Hot Plate • Hot Press
• Vacuum Oven • Etcher • Laser • Curve Tracer
• Probe Station • Die Bonder Tester • Thermal Analyzer
